I believe the Pfizer Biontech vaccine has smaller incidences of side effects. So perhaps you should go for that Jude

How do you change something that appears so deep-seated and supported by so many because it is to their advantage? A whole way of thinking needs reform. Our lot (I can’t really use the term “government”) are steeped in their rich, privileged, superior-to-you attitudes that are sickeningly prevalent amongst the majority party.
