Is there anyone here that has regrets getting the Covid vaccine

True Growfin. But every medication on the market has adverse effects. Even Panadol can kill but no one thinks twice about throwing it down continually when they don't feel well. The reason we are having an issue here is because billions of people are being vaccinated all at once and the numbers look higher than normal as they are spread over a short timeline. If the numbers were spread over 20 years for a long-term treatment period as we normally see for vaccinations, the majority of people wouldn't even look for them.

Paracetamol poisoning, also known as acetaminophen poisoning, is caused by excessive use of the medication paracetamol (acetaminophen). Paracetamol poisoning. Complications: Liver failure, kidney failure, pancreatitis, low blood sugar, lactic acidosis.
Usual onset After 24 hours (toxicity). Acetaminophen overdose is the leading cause for calls to Poison Control Centers (>100,000/year) and accounts for more than 56,000 emergency room visits, 2,600 hospitalizations, and an estimated 458 deaths due to acute liver failure each year in the USA alone.

COVID vaccination isn't just about the individual, its about helping those with underlying conditions and the elderly to survive. By increasing population resistance we can develop herd immunity and protect those around us who are vulnerable. Also, many of you are mentioning that the people dying have underlying conditions. This is true for many but not all. But for those who do, many don't know they have conditions. Many have heart conditions that haven't caused noticeable sickness yet. At least 48 percent of U.S. adults have some form of cardiovascular disease. 45 percent of heart attacks in the United States are "silent" — the people having them don't realize. They therefore have an underlying cardiac condition and don't even know. The human kidney can still function when compromised and many not show symptoms until it is down to 25% functioning. Kidney disease affects an estimated 37 million people in the U.S. (15% of the adult population; more than 1 in 7 adults). Approximately 90% of those with kidney disease don't know they have it.
1/3 of adults' have diabetes and don't know,
Around 2% of the whole population – 4.5% of all people aged over 40 – live with diagnosed COPD,

I don't see your comparison with panadol an accurate one. One is a product that is available in a pharmacy, with instructions and warning. The stats you quote for panadol's deaths and hospitalisations are from overuse. What are the stats for taking 2 panadol every 4 hours whilst crook as instructed. Panadol are not strongly encouraging it to the the same audience daily saying the word 'safe' daily.
Imagine if we put the 'excessive use' stats to these vaccines. 'Bunnings gives Gerald 3 doses of covid vax instead of one' might be a comparison there. I think there would be trouble.
