re: Can’t party Bc I’m unvaccinated:

Here’s the part I don’t understand:
-I get there being a concern about long run vulnerabilities generated by a new vaccine technology
-I don’t get the lack of concern about long run vulnerabilities generated by a new, probably genetically modified disease
I get that the survival rate of covid is high. The survival rate of the vaccine is higher. I get that it is impossible to disprove long run risks of the vaccines. Disproving the long run risks of covid is equally impossible.
Why does the discussion with y’all always resort to a 99.9% survival rate of the disease, but then you don’t likewise default to a 99.999% survival rate of the vaccine? Why does the discussion with y’all always resort to ‘we don’t know the long run risks of the vaccine’, but then you don’t likewise to default to ‘we don’t know the long run risks of covid’? Just pick a lane and stick to it.
Now all that said, do whatever you want, I don’t care. But the double standard on your risk tolerance across these two paths is just so dumbfounding. And I understand people who don’t want to spend time around you because of it.
Got a problem with that? Get over it

Im vaccinated, but I can understand why young, healthy people would rather tolerate the risk of doing nothing over the risk of the vaccine. One is a call to action and willingly putting something in their body, the other is doing nothing.
Covid is a fat man’s poor man’s disease. I only got vaccinated because I want to be done with this shite and it’s never going to end as-is. For someone with virtually no risk of serious illness, it is easy to see why they choose the route with no call to action.

To be fair, the survival rate for many low risk people (young people specifically) is about the same for catching the actual virus.
