Feel free to elaborate on what you're hinting at. Why should a healthy person get an experimental drug to reduce their chances of death from an illness that has a very low chance of killing them?

Because even if you don't die yourself, you can transmit the virus to someone who is elderly or immunocompromised, and who is much more likely to die.

Getting vaccinated makes it less likely for those around you to contract the disease. And, since evidence currently unanimously points toward all types of the vaccine being perfectly healthy, there's literally zero reason not to get the vaccine other than selfishness or willful ignorance.

Willful ignorance indeed.

Glad you agree. Now go get vaccinated.
