> science _overwhelmingly_ supports vaccination

Not to be pedantic about it, but science always, and in any event supports non vaccination for self and everybody else vaccinating instead.

This is true for every disease. If possible it's always smart not to inject yourself with stuff.

They just can't say it because then everybody would try and be the last person to get the shot, because the last one gets to skip the shot!

Maybe in a vacuum where everyone else around you is guaranteed to get the shot, but based on what I saw from friends and family who contracted COVID, what I've read about its long term effects, and the ongoing uptake of the vaccine I would not say the science inclines me to take my chances without immunity.
