I'm over the COVID fear-mongering. It's fine if people want to be careful, but there are too many people that are spewing nonsense. If it isn't largely a footnote by this fall that we're living with, well, that is going to suck.
That said, it's apparent you're seeing nonsense spewed by right-wing sources too about the vaccine. As far as I can tell, it's maybe slightly riskier than normal vaccines at most, heck, in one of his statements that he put out recently, Trump said recently that the vaccine is "safe to take". This is a very good move by him, and it'll be even better if he calls into Fox or makes a public appearance and says it.
I've admittedly been a bit of a baby about the vaccine, as long as I continue hearing good things about JNJ, I will likely look to take that vaccine sometime in the medium term.
