I think the real problem is trust in the system and in the vaccine, over here in the UK where I live, there is very few people that actually want to take it and I have to wonder what that's like across the country and world.
We should also remember that the UK is pretty much one of the leading nations in cases and deaths and that likely is putting more pressure on the government to act, regardless of how safe the vaccine is.
Personally, the Tory government has lied so much on Brexit and on the pandemic that it makes it difficult to beleave them on anything any more and that could be a major issue once we reach the people that refuse to take the vaccine.
Personally, I rather wait and see, hope I don't get the virus and if I do, see if my body can deal with it and only as a last resort take the vaccine and even then, I don't think I would want to take the UK vaccine in case they've cut too many corners with god knows what side effects long term.
In the end, I don't have the virus and because of that, I don't see why I should take the vaccine which would be like having an operation to fix my leg that isn't broke lol.
Now I hope these vaccines are safe but considering the pressure on governments to get them approved in under a year for something that takes years, even decades, I have to wonder if it could backfire if many people get side effects or even die because of the vaccine and because of that, I would rather wait it out, hope I don't get the virus and if I do, see if my own body can deal with it before putting a vaccine in me.
