I understand. But now Imagine the good example you could be by not only get vaccined but also by getting AstraZeneca. 
obviously, in the end its your body and your choice 

If there’re not other options at the end of the day i will take it..Pfizer is okay cuz the time between the two doses is short...

If I was older or had more health concerns tbh I might avoid it in favor of the others, but as a healthy person i'm not worried. but at the same time the threat of covid is so much greater than blood clotting from the vaccine so eh would probably still take it without worry. 

I'm probably going to end up getting the moderna vaccine, but idk

This makes me extremely sad... We are fighting against a deadly virus that has screwed our lives this past year and there's still people that dare to say that they don't wanna fight in this together because of the risk of having a couple of bad days after vaccination. This makes me sad and angry at the same level but you are all free to decide

It's a tough decision... And since I am already vaccinated (BioNtech / Pfizer), I luckily do not have to make the choice. Let's just say, in the beginning I was thinking this might be just another fearmongering campaign amongst many. But right now, with reports of incidents going through the roof, and no real way to verify them, I don't know if I would take the AstraZeneca vaccine right now. Some former colleagues of mine got the Astra, and the entire vaccinated staff was sick for many days, so the numbers of people reacting with fever to the AstraZeneca vaccine seems to be much higher in my area. On the other hand, one of my current colleagues who also got the BioNtech/Pfizer like I did, had facial palsy for a whole day, which is of course one of the possible side effects, but it really did scare her. She is fine now, and I personally didn't have any side efffects at all. In the end, all I know is, getting vaccinated is the right choice, but I wouldn't judge you, if you chose to not take the AstraZeneca vaccine.

One second I'm a troll, then suddenly the troll is me.

Can happen with any vaccine.  After my wife got her 1st Pfizer dose she had severe reactions for weeks, not just a couple days.  She had high fever, tachycardia, low blood oxygen level, dizziness, and trouble breathing.  She had to take albuterol in a nebulizer.  When she told her pulmonologist he wrote a letter for her to take to the vaccination site for the 2nd dose.  The letter said that despite her reactions she needed that 2nd dose.  The staff at the site weren't buying it and wouldn't give her the 2nd dose.  They made arrangements for her to get the 2nd dose at the emergency room of a hospital.  Three nurses sat with her and kept her conversing so they could detect if something started going wrong.

Bottom line:  Despite reactions, it is very important to get vaccinated.  I know you plan to, and I hope everyone will.

Im not sure id call it "fake news".

 

Ppl may jump to conclusions or blow things out of proportion. But whatching out for ppssible effects and comfirming theres no correlation is a normal and responsible process. Thats not fake news for getting reported :shrug:

 

To answer ur question yes id still get it but i feel weird voting on the poll cuz i dont consider these reports "fake news" :enigma:

Im surprised if her reaction was that bad that they would still push for her to get the second shot especially since the booster shot can cause more severe side effects than the first shot :duck:

It  kinda is fake news though because it's political bias, there have been more cases of blood clotting in people who took Pfizer, but it's not been mentioned or suspended because its not related to it.

Yeah, but in some cases the 2nd shot isn't as bad as the 1st.  My wife had only mild reactions to the 2nd shot.  Her case is very rare.  She has chronic asthma, COPD, and bronchiectasis among other health issues.  She reacts poorly even to the annual flu vaccines, but still gets them.

Nobody should be afraid of the vaccine because of her reaction.

It is fake news because it’s being hyped up for political face saving to justify shoddy vaccination programme rollouts and so manufacturers can knock a rival vaccine maker down. Look at the facts which are that less than 40 out of the 17 million who have had the vaccine have had blood clots. This is in line with how many you’d expect to have blood clots from that sample size anyway, as the EU regulator said herself

 

National governments are using this as a scapegoat for their poor planning and lack of vaccine distribution
