Bret Weinstein and his lovely wife Heather Heying just defended Joe Rogan and said it's a perfectly reasonable position. We know nothing about the long term effects. I have zero concern about immediate effects like blood clots or whatever else. It's the long term effects we are clueless about.
My parents had said they weren't going to get their vax, so I told them I would get mine and convinced them to get it, because I wanted them to get it as they are more at risk from SARS CoV-2. They've gotten their first shot, so I told them, now I don't need to get it. Really old people or super obese and unhealthy people are almost always the ones that die from this, and most of those people are vaxed now. I'm pretty much a cripple and don't work anyways, so I don't see why I would need to get it right now. I'm happy to wear a mask in stores and get my flu shot though. Obviously I don't wear a mask outside because that's silly and there is no evidence of transmission outdoors other than at packed rallies where people are up against each other.
The flu shot is brand new every year, too. You don't know the long-term effects of that either.
You know what we don't fully understand the long-term effects of?
COVID.
Your logic is seriously flawed and I am sorry for that.
