Hi all.
There are apparently multiple vaccines in development. I think it is quite possible that sometime in the future there will be multiple vaccines approved for use.
If you are one who plans to get the vaccine and there are multiple vaccines available to you, on what criteria would you base your selection?
To simplify a little, assume for the purposes of this question that all the vaccines that you're interested in are actually available at your preferred point of care (local pharmacy or doctor's office, or whatever). Please also assume that there are multiple options and that you're not just getting the first one that is made available to you (which certainly could be a valid strategy but would make this question moot).
For example, the manufacturer may matter to you.
Or the out of pocket cost.
Or the number of doses.
Or shot vs. tablet.
Or side effect profile.
Or efficacy.
Or new technology (mRNA) or old technology.
Or other criteria?
