        Vaccines are one of the greatest medical marvels ever created by human kind. They are safe and highly effective.
        As far as I am aware not a single person has died yet as a direct result of being vaccinated against COVID.

        The COVID-19 vaccines are safe. As with all medicines, a very small number of people may have a severe reaction to the ingredients in the vaccine because of allergies or their immune system not reacting the way it should. However, the risk of dying from COVID-19 is way higher than not being vaccinated. The benefits outweigh the risks for vaccination!

        COVID isn’t particularly lethal. Unlike the flu or some other viruses. The Spanish flu variant killed millions in 1918-1919. Ok… there were no anti-viral drugs at that time. We’ve been lucky with COVID.

        The vaccine is very safe and helps protect people from Covid. Covid is a lot more dangerous!
