Same. Don't want to dox myself, but I have undergraduate and graduate degrees in the hard sciences, did coursework in immunology, and substantial graduate work in drug design. I used to eyeroll traditional anti-vaccine sentiments, but this new breed of "vaccines" and the bootlickers/collaborators that came with it have irreversibly destroyed any institutional trust I had -- that goes for healthcare, academia, the government, and my fellow man in general.

My biggest issue isn't even efficacy or the lack thereof. Imagine the COVID-19 shots were 100% effective for all claims, I still don't think that justifies forcing injections on everyone. We should all have the ultimate say on what medical procedures we undertake, and there should be no "consequences" from third parties from making decisions over personal healthcare. You're autonomous or you're not.

I would suggest there may be some caveats related to working in the healthcare field specifically (but certainly not for shots that have zero benefit). I still have a tough time with that and it's difficult to reconcile my personal autonomy principles on that matter.
