How Do We Know the COVID-19 Vaccine Won’t Have Long-Term Side Effects?
We don't. But "long term" at my age vs. that of my grandchildren means two entirely different things.

I see things a bit more pragmatically than most: I have gotten the vaccine because A) I've had the flu several times and didn't like it much; and B) I'm not going to let the lack of an arbitrary piece of paper keep me from seeing my family--and who among us knows just WHAT cockamamie regulations just might be hiding around the next corner? I sure don't.

Other peoples' reasons are their own, for or against. And I respect their right to have and exercise them.
