Therein lies the problem. What we don't know. I was one of the first here to get vaccinated...but I am in a group that seem to have done well with it. We know nothing of the long or even medium term effects on children, pregnant women or men/women of childbearing age that may want to reproduce. Worse yet, I am not sure we are looking/want to know.

Another anecdote. My vaccinated daughter is pregnant and pretty far along. Her unborn baby has a heart issue/problem. Is it due to the vaccine (as we have seen heart problems with adults) or does it have nothing to do with the vaccine? No one has brought that up and as far as I know, there is no database or registry. If there is a rise in children that are born with heart defects, how long will it take to know that and decide that it is caused by the vaccine? Years? Decades? That is why things like this should be better tested before giving it to children that have a very, very low rate of death (lower than the flu). Fielding it and calling that a test is not the answer.
