    @DeepaRamani1 @EricTopol @CDCMMWR The study you are responding to shows serious illness risks for one in 5 COVID cases. Unless you are continually socially isolating, your annual risk of infection is around 1/3. By comparison vaccine side effects are very rare and manageable...

      @DeepaRamani1 @EricTopol @CDCMMWR Most vaccine side effects are minor and temporary, except anaphylaxis from allergic reaction, which is treatable but is why you should wait 15 minutes at the vaccination site.

        @DeepaRamani1 @EricTopol @CDCMMWR Risks from COVID are being estimated in percents of patients (per 100); adverse events from vaccination are being estimated per 100,000. These numbers are not in the same ballpark. Get the shot.
