So WHO, the FDA and the CDC does what they've done during Coronavirus and people still trust vaccines? Or really, any medicine for that matter.
I'm not passing judgment, it's merely a matter of trust based on past history. They have none of mine. Unless I need a medicine to function day-to-day or I'm on my deathbed or severely ill, I'm not putting shite in my body that came out of a lab and sold to me by a corporation or government agency. Neither is my wife and neither are my kids.
Deal with it.

I'll definitely take it assuming the clinical trials showed no serious side effects such as the limited trial results Pfizer announced this morning.
And THIS is how we "adult" -- we can think differently and not be ugly!!!

The fastest vaccine ever created was the mumps vaccine that took 4 years.
As to how I feel about getting a vaccine. If we were dealing with something like ebola, with a CFR of 50%, I would get the vaccine. According to the CDC, my age bracket has a symptomatic CFR of .05%, with asymptomatic infections of 35%-50% that makes the total IFR for my age: .025%
So a rushed vaccine for a virus that has a survival rate of 99.975% for me.

My kids had to have proof of vaccinations to attend both private and public schools. I don't have a problem with that. The polio and other vaccines have been a godsend for mankind.
