The mRNA technology used in the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines has not been used previously as a vaccine. It has been previously used in various cancer therapies.
One hesitation I had about the new COVID vaccines was the potential development of VAERD and my concerns were valid. I now have two family members that have suffered greatly because of the vaccines. My brother has viral cardiomyopathy from the vaccine and my wife's nephew at 22 years old just had open heart surgery as a result from the vaccine. There is good and bad with everything we do and each must be examined closely. My fear is that the bad of the vaccines is not being examined closely.

Thank you for correcting me. I am aware of the potential side effects, especially with all the cases of young, healthy males getting pericarditis. This is actually why I'm hesitant to have my 8 year old vaccinated. Even though I'm in the trenches, I am still hesitant to have my child get it.
As I was alluding to in the first Covid thread, there are a lot more possible side effects not only to the vaccine, but to Covid in general. People that have recovered are having heart problems, blood clotting issues, headaches, and still trouble breathing. People have indeed died from complications due to Covid. The same can be said about those that have been vaccinated. They have shown side effects to the vaccine and some people have died. I am starting to see how this virus is affecting our pregnant population as well. It is disheartening when a woman who is only 21-27 weeks pregnant has a bad case of Covid we have to do an emergency c-section to save her and hopefully her baby.
At the end of the day, people are right when they say "My body, my choice", especially knowing that the vaccine doesn't stop the actual spread.
