Science guy here. I'm not sure yet if I should get it. Should I be ashamed also?

I asked Lchoy (whose opinion I'd probably value more than most in this thread)earlier in the thread regarding how complete the trials for this vaccine compared to normal trials have been. He's going to get back to me on it.

My question for you is that given that there is a significant possibility that this vaccine has been subjected to a fraction of what is normally considered best practice for clinical trials of vaccines does that make someone a bad person for not wanting to subject themselves or their loved ones to the injection based on what can be construed as incomplete evidence?

You might be happy with the best science to date and more power to you but suggesting that I should be ashamed simply because I want to make a more informed decision and have concerns regarding the thoroughness/quantity of replications of the clinical trials is just simply .... wrong.

It's all about informed decision. You feel there is sufficient information to make an informed decision to get the jab. I don't. I'll wait and see the figures when people start getting jabbed re. side effects.
