I'm not with family for Thanksgiving. A few of my closest friends have been unemployed for half a year now. I miss doing things. So many people are struggling so much because of this. The sooner we achieve normalcy the better. I'd take any vaccine in a heartbeat.
I doubt most Americans would though.
If there were long-term side effects not observable in initial trials prior to public release that made the vaccine less effective (or even not worth taking at all). Plus as the sample size gets larger, more issues could pop up that weren't discovered in smaller sample sizes. That could also work in the other direction too I'd imagine. Only time will tell.Quote:

That would be his prerogative. If he can get people like VP elect Harris to stop saying that she won't take a vaccine because she doesn't trust Trump, that would be a decent start. These vaccines have been vetted by international groups of Physicians and they have been found to be safe and effective. The FDA would not approve their use if they weren't.Quote:

You should follow that advice.Quote:
