Making yourself more ill with side effects from the vaccine than you would likely get if you caught Covid.
"I'd rather have it than Covid though". Why? ๐คท
Because I'm definitely not more ill than I would be from COVID-19, and I'm unlikely to accidentally kill anyone by spreading a vaccine to them.
How do you know that? I've had Covid twice and it was nothing like the symptoms you're describing there.
None of us know how Covid would affect us. But in 99% (probably more than that) of us, it's no worse than a cold or mild flu. Automatically thinking that you're going to end up in hospital is silly.
Easy to get COVID twice when you take no precautions.
You are the problem.
Twice in three years is "not taking precautions"? ๐
Since you put so much stock in personal anecdotes, I've had it zero times in three years, so clearly my precautions are superior to yours, and there is zero possibility that I've gotten lucky in any way.
