There are no modern vaccines that have ever had and significant long term effects that didn't manifest within the first month or so after vaccination. (Dr. Offit goes over this in an episode of Oh No! With Ross and Carrie: https://maximumfun.org/episodes/oh-no-ross-and-carrie/ross-and-carrie-help-vaccinate-claire-covid-19-immunity-edition/ https://maximumfun.org/episodes/oh-no-ross-and-carrie/ross-a...). > questionable efficacy In fact, we know the efficacy to be quite high. Just because something isn't perfect doesn't make it worthless. It's still the best way to prevent infection. > A lower mortality than the flu We're talking about a difference in mortality for children of around .01%. Even if true, it's an irrelevant fact.

You really think, if given the choice between killing their grandparents (with a high likelihood) and a 1/80,000 chance of serious side effects (and no reported deaths) from a vaccine, that most people should opt not to get the vaccine? You fucking psychopath.
