I really hope that we can have a sensible discussion about safety and relative risks with 90% of the population.

That seems incredibly unlikely. People who have been hesitant to get the vaccine have been mocked and ridiculed for months. I honestly can’t even imagine what will happen if it turns out that they were right to be hesitant.

There are no caveats to all the statements that the vaccines are safe and effective.

Speaking personally, they’ll need to do an amazing job quantifying the risks and performing further long-term studies before I would consider an additional booster shot.
