  What's irresponsible about healthy, low risk individuals waiting until all of the high risk people get the vaccines first? If there's autoimmune issues that pop up when the scale goes from tens of thousands to hundreds of millions, I'll know about it ahead of time and be able to take the appropriate action, such as choosing a non-mRNA vaccine such as the adenovirus type from Astrazeneca.

    The risk of a vaccine having negative effects is basically nil. The biggest issues historically have been around cross-contamination, not anything to do with the vaccine itself. https://www.cdc.gov/vaccinesafety/concerns/concerns-history.html https://www.cdc.gov/vaccinesafety/concerns/concerns-history....

    The irresponsible thing about healthy, low-risk people not taking vaccines is that it puts high risk individuals at higher risk of catching the virus because high risk people are the ones that can't take the vaccine. Vaccines are not 100% effective but they don't have to be. The goal here is to reduce transmission in the population to a level where the virus can no longer spread. That is only possible if enough people take the vaccine and healthy people should absolutely be in the front of that line. This is not a purely personal choice. You have to understand that by deciding not to immunize yourself you are making a decision for everyone else.
