I would implore anybody reading this to seek independent healthcare advice and to make a carefully considered decision on any prophylactic measures that they may or may not wish to take.
Specifically regarding vaccines, it is helpful to consult the Fact Sheets. As an example, below is a list of the possible symptoms of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine taken from the Fact Sheet which you should also note is an unapproved vaccine that has received authorisation for emergency use only.
• injection site pain
• tiredness
• headache
• muscle pain
• chills
• joint pain
• fever
• injection site swelling
• injection site redness
• nausea
• feeling unwell
• swollen lymph nodes (lymphadenopathy)
In addition there is a remote chance of an allergic reaction resulting in:
• Difficulty breathing
• Swelling of your face and throat
• A fast heartbeat
• A bad rash all over your body
• Dizziness and weakness
And here is the ingredient list for those that may like to consider the the individual components:
mRNA, lipids ((4-hydroxybutyl)azanediyl)bis(hexane-6,1-diyl)bis(2-hexyldecanoate), 2 [(polyethylene glycol)-2000]-N,N-ditetradecylacetamide, 1,2-Distearoyl-sn-glycero-3- phosphocholine, and cholesterol), potassium chloride, monobasic potassium phosphate, sodium chloride, dibasic sodium phosphate dihydrate, and sucrose.
The Fact Sheet is available from: https://www.fda.gov/media/144414/download | | | | | In Switzerland, I believe the approval is not an emergency authorization, but rather a regular approval.
At any rate, I am a high risk person due to age and comorbidities. After reviewing the information available over the past few weeks, I’ll take my chances with the vaccine....when it is available to me.

That fact sheet really doesn’t differ much from any other vaccine so I’ll take my chance too. I have reviewed all the data available and spoken to my GP about it and I’m happy to go ahead.
I’ll report back after I’ve had it on Tuesday.

Like I said, medical and scientific ignorance is rife and takes many forms; this includes pretending to know about the risks of individual ingredients that a vaccine is composed of. People who regurgitate things they read on social media or hear from others and then engage in pseudo-scientific discussions, issuing warnings left right and centre without the knowledge or facts to back up their claims, are a serious barrier to fighting the pandemic and a stark reminder of what the medical community are up against.
There are entire teams of many thousands of medical experts worldwide working on creating, testing and approving these vaccines. They are all sharing information and working with government and medical regulatory bodies who all have families and who all care about the effect they will have on people. My view is that it would be better if people trusted them instead of engaging in conspiracy theory BS based on their own lack of knowledge and mostly irrational fears.

I made a statement that an earlier poster's comments were founded on ignorance. This is a fact.

Your post however, is condescending. You are claiming that I have tried to scare people with the ingredient list. That is an inference and it is incorrect. You don't call me an anti-vaxxer explicitly but some people might interpret it that way and typically this is used in a derogatory fashion.
Anti-vaxxer is really quite an unhelpful term. The reason is that there are many different types of vaccines and people may be accepting of some and more cautious of others.
It looks like you're a moderator on this forum. That's a bit troubling as your post certainly couldn't be described as moderate.

Yet they are readily confirmed when subjected to inquiry. | | | | | I am all for dialogue since the last thing we need is further polarisation and entrenched views. There are two arguments I can see as to why you wouldn't take the vaccine now. - This is a global conspiracy and people seem to be jumping in like lemmings.
- This technology is too new and 1 year is too soon to approve a vaccine that should take 10 years to develop
I can't answer the first since I'm not a huge conspiracy theorist. However the second is a fair point and as with everything you take a balanced risk/benefit decision. The longer you wait the more data we will have, and the more reassured you can be.
However it is worth noting that COVID has been unlike everything we have experienced before. The amount of crowd-think in the scientific community has been immense, with the free sharing of data and the fact that we are all in this together. With so many hands the work becomes easier and quicker, and with so much external scrutiny there is very little that can be hidden. We have amateur molecular biologists combing over the open source data on forums just like this, unaffiliated and unburdened by confidentiality. If they saw anything to worry about then I am sure it would be all over social media.
The proof of the pudding is ultimately whether you would give it to your own family. And based on everything I have seen, I would.

Four family members have had the vaccine, I think the Pfizer version, all front line hospital staff working with COVID patients. Three are in their 20s and 30s, one is mid 60s.
No adverse reactions. Nada. All feel great.
The vaccine has made all the difference. After months of putting their own lives on the line day in and day out to save others, finally they can at least walk back into the COVID wards with a bit less worry.
---
I've done my non-scientist best to read the literature, as well as have spoken at length with family and colleagues who are scientists qualified to evaluate the studies. I see nothing that would give me pause. Yes, there are some risks - but dear doG im Himmel, those risks pale in comparison to the utter devastation that COVID has wrought among my family, friends, and community.
I just want this over. I want normal back. And the only way that will happen is with the vaccine.
And so I eagerly await my turn. The moment I am able to get the vaccine I'll be there with bells on. Looks like that will not be until summer or later - but count me in as soon as possible.
