We've had "get the vaccine facts" sessions with our Chief Medical Officer. They don't seem to quite get that if I don't trust the White House doctors telling me it's safe, I'm probably not going to trust our CMO that went to the same schools and is beholden to the same system.
I can't imagine the person who says "well I don't trust that Fauci, but I trust our CMO who I've never met and who lives on the other side of the country"
The part that gets me is that the Government of Canada said that all of these vaccines have been thoroughly tested and are definitely safe, no need to worry. Then other countries started finding a causal link between the Astra Zeneca vaccine and brain blood clots, which led to at least 5 deaths of young adults who were at no risk of dying to the virus. And it's only after that happens that Canada suddenly pulls that vaccine from use for under 55's.
But if they had thoroughly tested it and knew it was safe, how did this escape their notice? They must be either incompetent or malicious and either way, why should I now trust any of the other vaccines on offer? Can I trust that as much "care" was put into vetting them too?
I'm not even anti-vac or even anti-mRNA vaccine, because I understand the mechanism behind how they work and it makes sense. But I am anti-"give everyone in the world a new vaccine type that has never been implemented in humans before for a virus that 99.9% of the population shouldn't be legitimately concerned over"
I don't want something injected in me where you likely had a pharma CEO hovering over a bunch of scientists and engineers telling them "you will get this released and approved by this date, or it will be you standing in front of the Board explaining why you failed".
I've been in the shoes of those scientists and engineers, for things far less important or politicized. And I will tell you that I would hit that date, and you wouldn't want to ask too many questions about how I did it.

Agreed.
