It will probably take a while  not to mention you need to take 2 injections for it to reach peak effectiveness

Y’all say what you want but there is NO WAY I’m putting that vaccine in my body. It takes decades to study the side effects of medicine like this & I’m not risking it

I already had COVID so hopefully my antibodies/T-cells will work as my immunity

Decades? The vaccine takes 2 weeks to work. If you have any side effects its going to be within the 2 weeks your body is developing antibodies to the virus. Long term side effects from any Vaccine are extremely rare. The vaccine has been studied for 8 months. I doubt any side effects would take longer than that to develop?

It would still pass clinical trials/testing on each country...before it is deployed for use.
