[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m same OP. But yes will get this vaccine. I’m not anti vaxx tho .... just very thorough in my thought process of modern medicine. [b]I have seen many drs not take their “do no harm” oath seriously enough. [/b]

I’m leaning towards J&J but I have no tendency towards blood clots ... and I was under the impression the mRNA also have a clot risk. Although rare for all around.

I would say Pfizer over Moderna, no question[/quote]

What doctor actually "does no harm?" As a goal, it made sense when there wasn't much medicine could do, but it is entirely not appropriate anymore. Everything is benefit-risk analysis.

Can you think of a subspecialty or other part of the medical profession that actually does no harm?[/quote]

I have seen many well regarded drs bring out the big guns of pharmaceuticals or procedures, when more accessible approaches with less downsides could have sufficed or been tried first. But it’s a product of an outdated curriculum in our medical schools. I was just listening to a podcast about how it can take 30yrs for a cause and effect to be identified to then to be included into curriculum. That’s pretty astounding if you think about it.

So yes there is a benefit risk analysis .... but without comprehensive knowledge of things that have less inherent risk, it’s an incomplete analysis[/quote]

Okay, let me ask again:
