Being antivax is fucking retarded, but so is being provax. Generally speaking, putting all vaccines in the same basket is a losing strategy. 99% of vaccines are for very serious conditions that, in most cases, are life threatening, and favor the vaccine in terms of risk reward ratio (e.g. Tetanus)

Vaccines against coronaviruses in general are unlikely to produce 100% protection due to the nature of the virus itself. That much is known from historic data. People like you are choosing to ignore the fuckery related to the availability of options for vaccines against covid-19.
>no HISTORIC data of such vaccines being effective
>no LONG TERM testing data
>Unreliable studies where Pfizer/Moderna have failed to produce reliable placebo/base line groups
>vaccines offer limited protection if any
>Side effects which are orders of magnitude more dangerous than the virus in healthy young individuals
>waning efficacy (if any - look at Gibraltar, Isreal, Netherlands, Denmark)
>hamfisted attempt at vaccination during a pandemic. (efficacy of mRNA vaccines went from 98% to 50% because of "muh variants")

Even if the vaccines in general, be it mRNA or adenovirus vector, are actually doing something positive for humanity in general, it's no surprise the virus is mutating. That's what coronaviruses do. The vaccines are being fucking marketed as the silver bullet for solving this issue, which absolutely isn't true.
Based on the actual efficacy, these 'vaccines' should be classified as prophylactic therapeutics according to the guidelines of most health organizations around the world.
On top of everything, they're using novel technology. Why the fuck would you want to beta test with your body and not even get paid for it?
