Trusts doctors enough to be cut open and have someone elses organ inserted into their body. Doesn't trust doctors enough to get vaccinated
The vaccine was clearly rushed into production and saved a lot of vulnerable people's lives. That does not mean it does not have risks that, for younger and healthier people, those might outweigh the benefits.
But public hysteria and groupthink dictated that it had to be coerced on people.
The vaccine underwent the exact same rigorous testing that literally every other vaccine or medication gets. The only difference is that COVID vaccines were given a free pass to the front of the line at each step necessary. As well, due to them having a much shorter timeline and higher competition, it was economical to run multiple tests in parallel that would normally have been done in series.
It wasn't "rushed" as in sloppy, it was "rushed" in that it was given priority in the various governmental queues.
Don't bother, the person your responding to has the brainpower of a fairly intelligent frog.
Being inflammatory isn't really helping the situation
What if the doctor has told me I'm not allowed to have Ibuprofen?
Thank you kind stranger!
Perfect. Just what Lemmy needed!
"inflammatory", "ibuprofen"... I see what you did there. It took me a while, but I eventually got there.
