I'm disgusted with both the CDC and the FDA. They are too easily influenced by the WH. I was considering volunteering for one of the studies, but not anymore. https://www.philstar.com/world/2020/...after-exposure

Well, to be honest, since so many people in the US consider contact tracing to be a violation of their "rights" and refuse to stay home if they are not "sick", identifying people who are asymptomatic does waste a lot of tests.
Why should the change make you unwilling to volunteer for a study? We still need those study results.
I'll be cautious and wait for a bit before deciding to take the vaccine.
Infrequent serious side effects, if there are any, may not be apparent for a very long time. I have already lost half a year of my remaining life to being locked at home, and can't see doing that for much longer if there is a reasonable alternative. The remote risk of a delayed complication is acceptable to me, and I'll get the first approved vaccine as soon as I can. I am sure I already breathe carcinogenic air, eat carcinogenic food, drink carcinogenic water, and wash my hair with carcinogenic shampoo, and the risk of vaccine is unlikely to be higher than the minor ordinary activities of daily living in the 21st century.

Truth. We all take risks in our daily lives. We decide for ourselves what risks are acceptable.
With regard to Covid-19, I view it the same way I view cancer, flu, or any other disease: I try to prevent it as reasonably as I can, and I hope that if I do get it, it won’t suck too bad. I refuse to panic.

It is a bit like giving a venomous snake a wide berth, isn't it?
