It is remarkable. It is one of the greatest achievements in human history and our retarded (meant literally) population is saying they won't take it even after 10s of thousands of trial patients and likely 10s of millions of "at risk" folks will have taken it before they're up for their shots.
Pitiful.
Or, perhaps, the people who don't want to take it are choosing not to do so because they don't perceive the "reward" POTENTIAL protection from a virus that carries a less than 1/2 of 1% risk of death outweighs the risk (it will still be a largely unproven vaccine on a mass scale).

That is a decision that you have to weigh for yourself....I don't necessarily disagree with that decision. I'm of the mind that this thing needs to run its course anyway and that if we never have had any shutdowns, phases, etc we would be a helluva lot better off now than we are.
However, to suggest that the pharma companies are somehow lying to the public about safety or efficacy doesn't make any sense to me.
