@The Smiling Pony
A week ago I’ve heard from my relatives that soldiers in the base near my town were given the shots and now almost all of them are sick with horrible diarrhea, including the commander, and have other weird symptoms, like blood clots.
The most jarring thing about that conversation was ease, with which my relatives then proceeded to talking about getting the shot themselves, because they wanted to fly over to a mediterranian holiday. Most people are aware that these shots may give them severe health problems, but are still accepting them for reasons I find ridiculous.
>really simple idea of “caring about other people”
I don’t believe you and others, who talk the same way, care about other people. Most people are egotistical, selfish and wouldn’t give you a lift when you need it. The main reason they suddenly began “caring” is because lockdowns have taken their comforts away, and now they want everyone around to be free beta testers for the medical business. “Think of the grandma!“s are coming from the wrong place and I don’t accept them.
 
Diarrhea isn’t in the side effect list of any vaccine for any disease; chances are the base is just serving shitty food or someone came down with a stomach bug and spread that around. Blood clotting has been found to be an extremely rare side effect in pre-menopausal woman, with an overall incidence lower than in non-vaccinated populations.
 
accepting them for reasons I find ridiculous
Yes, you’re making it clear “human empathy” is something you don’t quite grasp.
 
I don’t believe you and others, who talk the same way, care about other people.
That’s not surprising given you’re showing it’s just not something you can understand in the first place. I’d love nothing more than continue to work from home and not have to deal with people face to face, “quarantine life” is my ideal. However, unlike you, I am cursed with the heavy burden of not just caring about my own wellbeing.
 
Honestly I wish I could be as blissfully selfish as people like you.

I’ve made a mistake, I shouldn’t have been hostile yesterday. I was on coffee and sugar.  
I don’t want others to get hurt, even if I find them annoying and self-righteous.  
That being said, I won’t get the vaxx.

The point isn’t “I’m getting the vaccine so I’m safe”, it’s “I’m getting the vaccine to lower the spread of a virus so many other people will be safe as well”.
 
COVID vaccines have an efficacy of between 50 and 95% (depending on which) for preventing infection, and putting aside how they all drastically reduce the virulence of the symptoms (ie. what kills you), the lowered chance of infection per exposure helps people down the line that are immunocompromised, in a high risk group, otherwise unable to get vaccinated, or just unlucky and do get ill despite being vaccinated.
 
It blows my fucking mind how many people don’t grasp this really basic concept, this really simple idea of “caring about other people”.

I feel you man, the vaccines aren’t rolling out as quickly as we hoped it would my country too. The elderly are prioritised to get the vaccine IF they can confirm that they do not have compromised or weak immune systems. Most of the deaths/side effects caused by the vaccines can also be attributed to this (weak immune systems).
 
We’re only at 10% total vaccinated (both doses) and I’ve been waiting for months for my vaccine, but hopefully things are going to pick up so less immunocompromised people will be infected.

I’m not from a western country. I live in Taiwan which recently had another surge of Covid and we’re still under level 3 lockdown (which might get even worse because of Delta variant report in the country). I guess we haven’t moved passed that phase because we got the vaccines a bit too late. All the deaths are listed and directly broadcasted on TV by the news. I didn’t know it from some obscure sites or Youtube videos. I don’t know what really is causing it but we mostly use the AZ vaccines.  
There are many people that use this website and I believe I’m not the only non-westerner here. I wish I could get vaccines as easily as everyone else too but not all of us have that luxury. I think we used to need to pay for the vaccines before more were generously donated from Japan and the US.

We prioritize our vaccines for the elderly, people with chronic diseases, and medical workers. The only way I can get one is with leftover and that’s also a slim chance. Plus apparently the vaccines are causing deaths too. I’m pretty skeptical about getting vaccinated right now.
 
Who is “we”, because in most western countries the “priotization” phase has ended and it’s first come first served.
 
As for “apparently the vaccines are causing deaths too”, please actually do some research instead of just parroting panic-clickbait the nonsense tabloids spew out; you’re more likely to get die from a flowerpot falling on your head indoors than from any of the vaccines.

That isn’t “opinion”, that’s caring about other people; it’s the same reason speed limits aren’t being “an opinion” to protect the person going too fast, but to protect others as well.
 
This is the #1 problem with discussions like this. So many people think their opinions formed from whatever idiocy has been floating around social media are of equal merit to the advice given by doctors and scientists, and now the public at large is suffering for it.

And during the weeks you were infectious you likely got other people sick, and those people likely got others sick, and so on, with some down the line probably dying or suffering permanent damage. The point of vaccines and other measures isn’t just to protect the person taking them, but as many other people as well.
I’m happy that (you think) you’re immune now, but a whole lot of other people aren’t and should make themselves so in the safest way possible for themselves and for others. That isn’t “opinion”, that’s caring about other people; it’s the same reason speed limits aren’t being “an opinion” to protect the person going too fast, but to protect others as well.
 
This, it shows people lack empathy for others by not getting a vaccine.

while normally good advice, when it comes to a difference in opinion than can directly harm those around you it’s less clear cut than that. it’s good to keep it optional but people are dying to this and when people aren’t taking it seriously it’s difficult to justify.
