The virus didn't go through the approval process either. We already know it has serious side-effects. It's self-replicating and able to spread to others. It probably wouldn't even pass animal testing.

Why would you take the higher risk of choosing the experimental virus over the experimental vaccine? It seems to me you're holding the vaccine to higher standards as the virus?




I’m treating them the same: minimizing the likelihood of them entering my body.

Also, there is 12 months more data for the virus than the vaccines. Based on available data, I’m not in an at risk group and have been tested every time I’ve knowingly had contact with anyone who has been infected.


Not exactly the same. You're taking the chance with the virus while completely isolating yourself from the vaccine.

The available data appears to show the virus is much more damaging than the vaccine. For every age group.
