Over a billion people have taken them without significant problems. Probably way more than any trial for any treatment before or well into the future.

- msandford 5y agoI have heard reports of people having long covid-like symptoms from the vaccine and needing treatment. That may not be significant to some folks, but to others it might well be. I'm not saying that their evaluation is correct, BTW, but I think it's difficult to make the argument that the vaccine is 100.0000% upside. Even if the rate of people having these long covid-like symptoms is lower than that of people who get covid it's still not riskless even though the risks are lower.

- gota 5y agoSnark aside, really - citation needed. I've seen plenty of scary long covid reports and have a close personal connection to at least one strong case, and it is heartbreaking. But they are are all from getting Covid, not the vaccine. Let us know what and where you're reading about these vaccine-induced long covid symptoms

- effie 5y agoTo make an assessment of safety, what is the number of people who have taken them and got significant problems? It is very hard to find this number. I know a person who got bad reaction to the vaccine, heart and brain aches. Their doctor turned them down, saying "that's normal, that's what vaccine does" a didn't even do ECG. How many people got treated this way?
