Everyone has two choices as to how they may be exposed. Vaccine, or no vaccine. With no vaccine there is the risk of becoming ill. Granted there are problems with some vaccines. I would not want to be in the first few trials or batches. If proved safe it's a viable method to avoid the illness.
I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for a miracle cure vaccine... chances are it will never appear, and when/if it ever does, COV19 will have mutated to another strain, just like the last 7 variation have of SAR's since 2003
Bingo!
Well if that is the case, with what we know today for certain, which is not much, anybody today that is under 40, if they reach over 70, has a pretty good chance of dying from COVID. I'd cross my fingers on the vaccine.
edit, I have yet to hear there is definitive proof of immunity against re infection for any specific time period, for certain, nor that any mutations will be more or less infectious or lethal, nor will vaccines be able to stay ahead of any mutations, nor will the infrastructure ever be adequate and prefunded to safely handle in the US another outbreak exceeding the current 1.4? million cases nor whether if that happens in a worse case very steep nationwide simultaneous outbreak.

Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.
