Unfortunately due to my job, I was an A-1 priority and received the Pfizer vaccine today. Initial effects are similar to the flu shot so far. Will keep updated as far as progress goes.

For the all justified worry over the speed of the vaccines being produced, they are in all likelihood no more dangerous than the flu jab. They wouldn't be shoving it into the arms of front line medical staff otherwise.
It is naive to fully trust in these rushed vaccines made by Pfizer and Moderna just because they are giving it to healthcare workers first.
Who knows what side effects it will cause in the long term?
Why would anyone under the age of 65 with no serious pre-existing conditions take a vaccine for the Chinavirus which has about a 99 percent survival rate for this age range?
The only reason I think it's probably as safe as the flu vaccine is because they've been testing Covid19 in a lab for who knows how many years, and they most likely already knew how to make a vaccine. They probably slipped "hints" to their contacts within Big Pharma about how to make it, but did so slowly enough that the vaccine wouldn't be available until after the election.
