It's all cost/benefit.
You or I may need it. George or Jon may need it. Younger people, especially those in their twenties (and younger) with no comorbidities?
You're going to have to convince me.

I would not try. They have the option to get it or not. I would encourage my daughter to do so.

After 5 vaccinations.
I mean, the vaccinations aren't preventing someone from getting COVID, but they have helped massively in reducing sickness and death. Honestly, I wonder if I took a test every day (as I'm sure the CDC director and others probably do), I wonder if I would've tested positive.

Exactly.

It is sad that it has become so political in the US.
(Some) Republicans look at everyone who gets it as some sort of non-patriot.
(some) Democrats look at everyone who does not get it as some sort of non-patriot.
To me, it is a "no-brainer".

No, they haven’t. In your age range, 12 out of every 100,000 cases resulted in death in unvaccinated people. Now what do you think happens to those numbers when you take Diabetics out? https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2022.10.11.22280963v1
Try finding the post vaccination numbers. It’s actually quite difficult.
This is a deadly disease for the elderly and those with co-morbidities. Much less so for everybody else. Even with the vaccine, an elderly patient with the vaccines have much worse outcomes than unvaccinated youth.

When you have the governor of New York and the candidate for Vice President say that she would never take a "Trump vaccine," back in late 2020...well that horse left the barn long, long ago.

Numbers are hard to come by, aren't they? And VAERS borders on useless. I would love to see vaccine reactions/serious problems/deaths broken down by gender and age group.
I'd also like to see some current hard numbers on mortality rates in the elderly of COVID+comorbidities vs. Flu+comorbidities.
