NOT EVER GONNA TAKE THE 'VACCINE" (which is not a vaccine, by definition). Not so anonymous any more. I cannot stand all this secretive stuff.

when will we know when it is safe and effective?
I present you with a scenario. Please don't make it a political one. This is just a general what if, and what would you do? Assumptions: Masks are very effective in protecting one another for catching the virus (not 100%), combined with social distancing The vaccine is coming along which you believe is safe.
Put yourself in this situation;
Your country is faced with a pandemic. Masks, social distancing, and vaccines are recommended. 1st problem;Some of your people do not believe in a pandemic 2nd problem. Some folks feel it is their right not to wear masks because it infringes on their freedom.People have even been shot for trying to enforce this, even in their own establishment Others feel that putting them in harm's way is also a violation of rights. Your country has developed a vaccine, and you have had luck in testing. You offer it free to your countrymen. Part of them take it, and others don't. Masks are still being used, and the number of "victims" is dropping. It seems to bring about some normalcy. you then tell everyone the masks can come off if you are vaccinated, trusting that those who are not will continue to mask (Although in my experience, it was the folk who got vaccinated who continued to wear masks because of lack of trust.--but I digress.) 3rd problem Numbers are up again after the masks off issue, but those vaccinated have significantly lower signs of illness than the un vaccinated. You repeatedly push for vaccine use. No change--meanwhile numbers inc again. You believe that this vaccine is safe, and works, so you recommend that everyone get it. Many businesses are now going to require it as well as a requirement for work, esp nursing homes and hospitals.
Leaving politics out of this (I have been biting my lips), what would you do?
If the peoples of your country would have continued to be masked and the number slowed, decreased, which was manifest apparently from the drop in cases, would you continue to require masks?
Again, not wanting to argue with so and so says this or that. This is just a what would you do sort of thing.

?At the recent Health Congress at Blackpool, a paper was read by Dr. Adler, Chief Rabbi of London, on the antiquity of sanitation, reference of course being made to the regulations found in the books of Moses. Those rules were given by the Lord Himself, and, when followed, produced the healthiest people that ever lived. Let it be noted, however, that inoculation was not included in the list of preventives of disease. Perfect cleanliness within as well as without the body, is the sum of the whole matter. Clean food, pure water, fresh air, plenty of sunlight, regular, muscular exercise, and a clean conscience, will ward off any plague known. It may be said that vaccination and inoculation have saved many lives. No doubt they have served a purpose, and will yet do so among people who find that course easier than keeping themselves thoroughly clean; but to fill one's body with death, as a means of warding off death, is unscriptural and unscientific.?

Maybe we are afraid that gov spies will find out who voted what and come execute them?
