NB: I'm personally going to get the first SARS-CoV-2 vaccine I can get, and I'm incredibly excited about mRNA vaccines in general. But, it's true that any time you inject a chemical into your bloodstream you're taking a calculated risk.

mRNA vaccines had also (limited) human testing before these trials in the past years (mostly Phase 1).
All medicines represent calculated risks -- risks that are often worth taking, but still risks.
No. I am not a mindreader. And “vaccines are injected into the bloodstream” is a standard antivax lie.
Yes there’s a risk in receiving a vaccine, just as there’s a risk in receiving any prophylactic/therapeutic treatment, but severe side-effects are closer to 1-in-100K to 1-in-a-million. Compared to a disease that is currently killing 2-in-100, with significant sequelae likely much higher.
I’m happy to accept that “bloodstream” was a slip of the tongue, but really try not to make those malignant lying bastards’ jobs any easier, when people die because of them.
If your goal is actually to educate others, then educate others. Replying with snark achieves nothing but temporarily boosting your own ego.
