Well no. How can I be if I had my flu vaccine two months ago?

I believe in informed decisions. While there's no science to back up whether this vaccine prevents catching or spreading covid-19 I remain on the fence. The CDC report in December publishing 2.7 percent of participants having serious adverse reactions is a little too high for my liking. How can long term side effects be known from a year long programme? Dozens have alreasy dies globally. I'll wait and see how it plans out for a while. After me, my mrs, mother, and father caught the virus in November I believe i'm in a position to make a decision of the pros and cons pretty rationally. My antibody test came back with high enough results for them to request blood plasma from myself so I believe I have a few more months of reasonably protection.
