In my personal circle I know of several who were openly and vocally irritated about about the election steal. Of this same group, I've heard zero about the vaccine. As far as I know they are all ready to get stuck. Or have been already. So trying to connect these are just stupid.
I'm highly likely to be the last holdout around me, and I'm not even anti-vax. They've just answered zero of my questions and offered me zero benefit. The only offering is a lower chance of hospitalization from WuFlu. I already had it, and I wasn't even in the ballpark of hospitalization. I was out doing physical exercise on the fourth day just fine. Why the hell would I want to take the risk on a shot that is known to be untested to avoid that? They can't even offer me a world where masks are never even requested, and that's even of their own decree.
Yeah, the risk-reward proposition is just not there for younger people. I've got quite a few years left before I even get close to the age groups that Covid killed at a higher rate, so why not be patient?
I'd go as far to encourage it for elderly, but in that case you take the risk down as they aren't concerned about fertility issues, things that may take a long time to manifest, etc. but the reward up as the virus has been much more brutal to them.

If one has a 99.x% chance of surviving Covid and the vaccine carries its own risks, how exactly am I better off after taking the vaccine???
