In the short term, the vaccine seems to be doing very well. However, the same thing could be said about 99.85% of the population of this country with regard to Covid-19.

I don't have time to show the problem with your 99.85% figure. Maybe later.
I believe we are over four months for the safety and effectiveness of the vaccine. And we now have a sample size, in the US alone, of over 45M. That certainly doesn't mean that no adverse side effect will ever be discovered but I'm not willing to wait until "anytime in the future" to protect myself from this virus - I will be happy to see you step out of line and allow me to move up.
