So I have not been sick for years not even a cold. The last time that I was really sick was about 5 years ago. Throughout the Covid restrictions, my wife and I have not worried and traveled on 10 flights, Been out of the country and a to whole bunch of states. We have been outside doing things for the most part with the exception of having eaten at restaurants multiple times per week since last June and having been to a hand full on indoor concert events. We have met with friends and family in small groups and even recently got to visit my mom who is 91. Final point - I am a no flu vaccine person.
That being said, I am scheduling my vaccination and I feel anxiety! My concerns are 1) Long term effects, 2) Side effects after vaccination, 3) I do not know enough about the vaccine. Some people I know had arm pain and that was it. Others had severe head aches, fever, and/or fatigue. I do not want any of them since I do not like feeling miserable. I am relatively healthy and active with no pre-existing conditions so if I were to get covid I would recover (that's not a 100% thing though), which how my wife and i are living our lives. If I get it I will not be an Announce it on FB type or wear a pin showing that - seems like social media subscribers want people to know.
The news reported that 22% do not want it and 15% or so are still not sure.
Have others felt this way or was it a no brainer and everyone else is doing it?
