Covid 19 immunisations - would you have it?

Just that really. If and when one becomes available, would you have it?

Taking into consideration the lack of testing time on side effects (I’m meaning years not weeks or months).

Also say if we are tested for immunity and had already had the virus. Would you still have an immunisation? Really interested to hear everyone’s view.

I have had the vaccine as part of a major properly conducted clinical trial
10,000 people will have been recruited into the trial (so 5,000 will have had the experimental vaccine).
Yes it is being pushed through quickly but that is mainly through less red tape and more resources rather than some kind of corner cutting.
By the time any vaccine is generally available it will have been properly tested for safety and effectiveness hence the trials.

Definitely not for a few years to see what any side affects are and definitely would not give it to my children

I'm in the same situation as a couple of others in that if it is a live vaccine then I will not be able to have it.
