Like I already said in the other post, it is your choice. Personally, I am not ready to explain to my children how I neglected to protect my spouse, just because I THOUGHT the vaccine might be too young to be any good.
In my opinion, from what you are saying, you are basing your possibly life threatening move on inaccurate information. There is no proof that this doctor that passed, died because of the vaccination. His case is very unusual. Maybe the CDC said that they cannot guarantee that you wont' get sick, but they do say that with the vaccination, you have a better chance of surviving the illness if infected. I have read other studies that indicate that this is one of the best vaccine builds in use today. I have also read an Israeli study that indicates that the vaccines may (it's still early) prevent you from passing/carrying the virus to other people.
It is your decision, but make sure you are working with ALL the available information. Like I said, I am not going to tell my children that I made the mistake of convincing my spouse NOT to get the vaccination and because of that, she is no longer around for them.
