The people around here are militantly antivax. You'll get yelled down at with any mention of possibly taking the shot. I've had multiple diagnosed autoimmune issues for the last 12 years or so. So I decided to get the vaccine. Trump helped create it, and continues to push it sometimes despite getting boo'ed at rallies for saying so. I'd figure he's more privy to information than even the autists around here could ever figure out. Most all the people around me that I know have also been vaccinated. I haven't seen one negative reaction to it, except for the common side effects in the first day or two. None of the people I know have gotten covid since we got vaccinated, despite friends going out to bars and restaurants and whatever. And covid is definitely something different than the flu, I helped my parents when they got it after New years last year. People around here get so locked into the rabbit holes they've gone down, they can't conceive that maybe they've been mislead by misinformation. My doctor's have always helped me with my chronic illnesses, and the meds they prescribe genuinely help my conditions when comparing before and after. But of course you mention these personal experiences and you'll get down voted and argued with constantly. Try not to fear having to get the vaccine for your work. You'll more than likely be just fine. You have more of a risk for development long-term health complications from catching covid than taking the vaccine by a lot.
