How long would you be happy to wait? This has been in 40,000 arms with no safety problems. That’s the same as a normal vaccine phase III. So if you were to take this then it is no different to getting a normal vaccine that was just approved. As usual, the phase IV will continue post-market approval. Transverse myelitis was a different vaccine wasn’t it. Do you not trust the safety boards to do their job properly?
I’ll give it at least 5 years or so, again unless it’s mandatory for travel and such, in which case I’ll concede. I’ve never taken any vaccine that was just approved, unless you want to count the flu vaccine. MMR, Polio, Chickenpox etc have all been around for a long time.
I do trust the boards to do their job, however there simply has not been enough time to know what the potential side effects are, and that’s not their fault, they need to find something to do about this. There may not be any in the short term, but in the medium-long term, who knows? I would want to give it at least some time before that. It’s not like I’m going to convince people to not get it, I just don’t plan on doing so myself.
