"many negative side effects of other vaccines" is a profoundly unscientific statement, particularly when you're trying to prove the likelihood of a completely different vaccine having side effects for other reasons

if I could just offer a piece of friendly advice, for anyone trying to convince the majority that the COVID-19 vaccines show a strong likelihood of negative side effects long-term:

try to show the actual frequency of each long-term side effect you mention, as a proportion of # of those vaccines administered, and explain the physical mechanism by which each of those side effects will manifest in recipients of the COVID-19 vaccines

No, it’s basic medical knowledge.

You seem to have very little understanding of how medicine works.

could you post those frequencies, please?

if you're trying to convince the vast majority of Americans who aren't opposed to vaccine mandates, that they should change their mind, you should probably be able to show that significant side effects occur a significant % of the time in another vaccine,

then explain how that side effect modality would transfer to this vaccine (IE what they have in common which indicates the COVID vaccine will probably have the same long-term side effects)

oh, also, you never answered OP's question: how long do you think is enough?
