I’ve got to think they’ll develop a 2nd generation vaccine with fewer side effects especially if a new one is actually needed yearly (still not convinced we don’t just need the vaccine re-tuned for Delta rather than blindly shoving booster after booster of the original strain).
I get the flu shot every year and have zero side effects, it’s a different type of vaccine but I believe the Chinese have developed an inactivated virus vaccine for covid.

But seeing how it now seems to have more longevity, maybe that overkill comes with a bonus staying power. Im not sure it quite works that way but maybe it really is as simple as "less more often" = fewer side effects, "more less often" = more side effect, less often"
