Have you ever considered that we might be the ones that turn out to be stupid. After all, the vaccines are still only experimental having only been approved for emergency use. No one yet knows if there are any long term effects. I'm hoping not but I still understand there's that risk.
What time frame are people concerned about regarding "long term effects"? Is it one year, five years, 20 years? We know NOW what effects Covid causes and that includes those pesky long haul effects right up to death. Why worry about the unknown of a vaccine when it is very possible there will be no long term effects with the vaccines at all.

Vaccination history has proven that long term effects from any vaccine ever developed and used in humanity has not caused long term effects beyond the amount of time that has already lapsed for these mRNA vaccines that have already been administered. Very good chance there will not be long term effects from these Covid vaccines.

That seems to be the most popular excuse used by anti-vaxxers and hesitant vaxxers. They need to start singing a different tune if you ask me.
