fearmongering is simply an inflammatory term to deride the caution of those one disagrees with.
misinformation? actually a lack of information as well. any new medical product is by nature an unknown no matter how “thoroughly” it has been tested. the history of medicine proves this, notwithstanding the arrogance of the medical profession who tend to declare any product “safe” as long has it hasnt yet been proven to be unsafe.
of course medical science has to balance the likelihood of risk against the probable benefit, but tends to consistently ignore the unknown, and declare safe anything that hasnt been proven harmful. there is cunning and thorough science in the medical profession, but little common sense.
i dont have a position on this vaccine.
