What you will find is that the vaccine-hesitant are perfectly happy to take the word of authorities who say "this vaccine is unsafe" and only have trouble accepting the word of authorities who say "this vaccine is safe".
- DennisP 6y agoFor people who won't accept the vaccine regardless, it doesn't matter either way. For people who can be convinced, I think that obvious evidence of caution may be helpful in convincing them.

It is relatively easy to identify unsafe, especially when negative effects arise quickly. It is harder to reliably determine safe as it may just be a matter of time before negative effects arise.
