Do we know enough about the vaccine side effects?

These vaccines have been some of the most intensely studied in medical history, so we know a tremendous amount about their side effects. 

Because these vaccines have been some of the most intensely studied in medical history, we know a tremendous amount about their side effects.  Over 5 billion people have been vaccinated, so vaccine experts worldwide have gathered tremendous amounts of data demonstrating their safety. It is impossible to have long-term data because the vaccines have been developed to combat the pandemic that is upon us. What we know is this: no side effect from a vaccine has ever been demonstrated beyond 2 months after its administration. This knowledge, in addition to the reality that billions of people have received these vaccines many months ago assures us of their safety.
