I was deceived about Covid vaccine safety

I glanced at it, and it seemed like a reasonable article by a
reasonable person.  I tried to vouch for it, but it didn&#x27;t come back
alive, so I reposted it.  The parts I read seemed coherent, but I
haven&#x27;t actually read the whole thing yet, so it might well misleading
somewhere further down.<p>I&#x27;m doubly vaccinated and boosted, as is my wife, as are my parents.
Despite having somewhat adverse reactions to the shots, I&#x27;m pretty
sure my wife and I are safer this way, and even more sure my parents
are.   But I think discussion is a good thing though.  Maybe I&#x27;m
wrong, maybe there&#x27;s evidence I haven&#x27;t seen, maybe others are
unconvinced and the rebuttals here will be what convinces them.<p>I mention this to suggest that before flagging this as heretical,
please consider what message you are sending by doing so, and what the
impacts will be.  Do you think those who are currently afraid to be
vaccinated will change their mind if only we can prevent them from
reading more things that might encourage them?  Are you absolutely
certain everything you currently believe is true, and the end of the
story?  Or might something useful come from discussing---and possibly
rebutting---this post?
