    I’d be really worried about autoimmune reactions. I swear there’s been a few Trek episodes where some kind of universal vaccine has unintended consequences.

      I’m not sure I’d put any truck into fictional sci-fi where everything needs a good story, so any positive needs a negative…

      …but I get it. And yeah, it’s a worry.

      Same. Every major corona infection I suffered has set off my immune system for months, leading to debilitating nerve and joint pain. Even some vaccinations trigger this, but with shorter and way less symptoms, modern vaccines are way better than what they prevent. So I have high hopes.

        I get a light version of the flu for about a day after getting the flu vaccine despite everyone saying the vaccine doesn’t give me the flu. Low fever, achy joints, tiredness, sometimes even congestion.
