Do you really think there is tangible risk to an 18 year old with antibodies that justifies taking a vaccine that is experimental, investigational, unapproved, or whatever else you feel comfortable calling it at this point? Ask me three or four years down the line and I might answer differently but right now my answer is no.
You said it would be true *without* antibodies. There is no question that the risk of COVID far outweighs any possible hypothetical risks from a vaccine by a factor of tens of thousands.
This includes young healthy people who are not high risk, leaving aside the common effect of being ill for weeks or the risk of transmission to others.
Didn't Israel recently announce a possible link to rare heart issues in young men?
The *hypothetically possible* issue of myocarditis is verifiably
far more prevalent among people who have contracted COVID. In fact, in some places myocarditis is responsible for about
7% of COVID deaths. Compare that to Pfizer where 62 cases out of 10 million doses are being investigated (it’s
highly implausible that there’s a causal link as there is no virus in the mRNA vaccine, and is a condition that millions are diagnosed with in a typical year).
I will admit that there is more to the discussion if one has had COVID recently and/or has a high level of antibodies. I don’t think I’ve ever dismissed that out of hand.
