    There are significant side effects in like 70% of participants in the Pfizer phase iii group (compared to 30-40% from a placebo injection). Once this gets reported by the media, Americans are going to flip out and refuse the vaccine. Just watch.

    Hell, some people may be self-excluded from getting the vaccine just because this place is a racket and no one can afford time off work to deal with the adverse effects.

    One Pfizer trial participant told CNBC that after the second shot, he woke up with chills, shaking so hard he cracked a tooth. “It hurt to even just lay in my bed sheet,” he said.

        IMO, it’s basically overpowered, or it’s the vaccine that should be distributed to over 55s and people with compromised immune systems.

        Pfizer went into this blind about how much mRNA to inject, how much mRNA loss there would be due to improper storage, etc. And they ended up with a great product from an immunological perspective. But I just don’t see the social acceptance playing out once the news gets out there’s a 70%+ chance that the vaccine will cause an immune response that makes you feel sick, a 5% chance you get a high fever (102+F), etc.

          Idk if you actually look at the tables it looks like mostly the biggest side-effect is swelling/pain around the injection area, which is pretty common with injections, at least in my experience. I think looking at the first table on page 39 is also more useful.
