Digging in a bit, it looks like there's an immensely low rate of complications (J&J even lower than AZ). I wonder if the messaging around the "pause" is really the right approach.
J&J COVID vaccine use paused due to one-in-a-million complication
An extremely rare clotting problem that’s also seen with the AstraZeneca vaccine.arstechnica.com
Appears as if J&J vaccine has similar problems to AstraZeneca
Or, you could keep your right to say no, but get the vaccine anyway, and maybe avoid a rough time with a disease that sometimes causes long-term disability, not to mention long-term death.

And death isn't even the worst outcome from COVID...
Being totally healthy one day and then you get sick and nearly die with multi system organ failure. You get intubated, need dialysis, ECMO, trach and spend months in ICU to be subsequently discharged bed bound and barely conscious to an LTACH w/ respiratory failure, heart failure, kidney failure...
I think I'd just take the vaccine instead.

Or maybe you die from the vaccine instead. Lots of medical people have already, mostly neurological problems sec to the vaccine.

Please site you sources for this claim that is not on a anti-vax website. I’ll wait

Don't be silly Desert...anti-vax websites will be the ONLY place you will get the truth. All the other sources lie, wake up sheeple.
Circular reasoning or circular logic they call it...

Honestly there has been the same circular reasoning on both sides of the vaccination argument.

Second Moderna dose yesterday...headache, neck ache, chills and arm soreness with general malaise today

Typical experience. Likely some similar symptoms tomorrow. Next day, nearly all symptoms should be gone.

Second dose really knocked me for a loop. I probably could have gone back to work today but since I still had a headache decided to hold off one more day.

Something like this was bound to happen sooner or later, and will likely provide some validity to the arguments of those skeptical of the vaccine.

I had the second shot yesterday, and yes, it knocked me for a loop as well. I'm working from home today.

Here’s all the data on myocarditis cases linked to COVID-19 vaccines
Experts stress the need for everyone to get vaccinated as the Delta variant spreads.
arstechnica.com
As more and more side effects show up, do you think it's possible we reach the point of the risk of the vaccine outweighs the risk of Covid, and why do you think so? Here we have a low risk of a lifelong side effect in the younger population, which is generally at lower risk of the worst effects of Covid.

The vaccine is still under emergency approval, not full. 4000 people in Massachusetts that were vaccinated now have COVID. Go figure.
