      Tbh even if there are rare adverse events due to the vaccine (idk If there are, but probably nothing life threatening), it's still worth it because the good outweighs the bad on the whole.

        There are, and they can be pretty bad in the short term. There's evidence to suggest that the vaccines can cause heart inflammation, particularly in young men. That's not exactly ideal and can require medical intervention.

        But uh.... So does Covid lmao. It does the exact same but worse while simultaneously fucking with your lungs, your brain, the rest of your cardiac system, maybe your bowels? And so on and so forth.

        These people cling to a tiny nugget of truth to justify a heaping mountain of bullshit. The vaccines are and always have been a cost vs benefits situation. The risks and downsides of the vaccine are FAR outweighed by the risks and downsides of Covid. Even funnier that they appeal to 'longterm effects' from the vaccine while apparently flatly ignoring the well documented and horrific reality that is long covid.

        If it weren't so stupid and horrific, it would be funny how these anti-vaxers appropriate actual medical language and reality to fit their own goals. They all were insisting that vaccinated people aren't safe to be around because they can "shed" the vaccine.... Which is actually true if the virus, but not vaccines lol. Similarly they emphasize unknown long term side effects of vaccines while ignoring known long term downsides to Covid AND OTHER VIRAL INFECTIONS. Like, they hype up the fear of the unknown while ignoring the very VERY well known and miserable post-infection problems of viruses.

        Gives me a pit in my stomach to think about how such terrible misinformation has killed and disabled so many (and maybe even me! Hooray!)
