Yeah, I'll get it as soon as it's my turn. I'm a priority for flu jabs (under 65 with health conditions), so I assume the categories will be slightly similar with COVID. I think I saw a ~10 step priority list somewhere, I should dig that out.
Regarding safety concerns, I put my trust in those with a brilliant track record that can't be misinterpreted (scientists in this case), and are transparent about their claims (i.e. 70-90% efficiency, if there's any potential side effects, etc). I don't give much thought to those 'other' claims (I don't think they're worthy of being called counter-claims, because there's a strange lack of evidence to all of them). Obviously this is a quicker turnaround than other vaccines, but I trust in the process. Nobody is going to release anything they weren't 100% confident in - and none of the thousands of people who have trialled them over the past 6+ months have had any dodgy side effects.
At any rate, I think Long COVID (like what my in-laws and my little 4 year old nephew have had since March and say is severely limiting their previously active lives) is a more dangerous risk than taking the vaccine - I wouldn't wish that upon anybody.
Does anybody know how long the Pfizer one (the one we're getting first in the UK) lasts? I'm guessing once you've had your 3(?)-week top-up jab it's going to be an annual affair - maybe bundled with the flu jab like they did with some of the swine/bird flus if that's possible? I suppose even if it only gives you immunity for 3 months, that might be enough to slow down the spread and restore the world.
