Tried to post a long detailed response a couple of times without success will try with bullet points.

I am not an anti vaxxer I just like people to be able to make clear informed choices and the information of negatives is being suppressed or not put out there clearly.

lots of scientific information out there - try SAGE (papers often have footnote links to other research), ONS, Oxford Uni, Imperial, CDC, John Hopkins and Robin Koch as a starter.

Look at the MHRA vaccination process in normal times - this can’t be followed for obvious reasons - that presents increased risk.

Those under 25 who are fit and healthy are not as at risk as others generally therefore their need to be vaccinated is less (setting aside protecting others as the data on that is not clear)

Naturally acquired immunity is recognised in the UK and is possibly better than vaccine acquired immunity - if I have that I might want to wait good on the vaccine until more time has elapsed.

The vaccine has been great but the UK research published this week shows it is sadly time limited and becomes less effective within 6 months.

The mRNA vaccines are new tech and work differently - they are not as widely understood as trad vaccines - the risks are therefore not as well known.

Some in the USA in the medical profession have expressed concern that symptoms which may be associated with vaccines are being discounted when they need more consideration.

The vaccines are great but not the only panecea and other measures need to still be adopted (as you will see the US is now recommending for the fully vaccinated).

I want people to make informed choices and decisions and not to be be bounced into it. Putting something alien into your arm should be a conscious choice - especially if you hopefully have most of your life ahead of you.

Science should be rigourous and that is what is happening here but there has not been time for the fruits of that rigour to be released as research is ongoing and/or has not been peer reviewed. Some further research will be required.

Despite high levels of vaccination (78%) and naturally acquired immunity combined (look at the infection data for the last 3 months by age) the UK stats are headed back in the wrong direction - thus the vaccines are not the golden bullet at the moment no matter how helpful they are.


Said a lot more in other posts but hope that gives you an idea.
