We're pretty much done with the culture war side of the COVID vaccine debate, so perhaps we can now discuss whether there were unknowns that warranted investigation without the vitriol. I myself had no hesitation taking the vaccine, but had the same response as OP to this study. I don't regret getting vaccinated, but in hindsight, I should have been a bit more charitable towards those expressing concern.

> without the vitriol Are you new to the Internet? Arguments over putting pineapple on pizza cause vitriol. Jokes aside, the summary admits more studies need to be necessary. From what I understand of it, it made mice stronger against flu, but may have made them weaker to other infections. This is big if true, but it requires more study.

  > Are you new to the Internet? It was aspirational not an expectation. Alas, the downvotes show me that I'm doomed to yet another disappointment :p > This is big if true, but it requires more study. That's basically my point. I am saying that I would have (apparently incorrectly) assured people that more study was not required - at all. I and many others probably overcorrected for the skepticism of "the other side". It doesn't change my opinion that the vaccine program was the right call.
