I may take a corona vaccine eventually, but I'll let other folks line up to be the first wave of human guinea pigs.

1. In the early days of the vaccine, not enough vaccine will be available to vaccinate everybody

2. Some subset of the population is unable to tolerate vaccines, particularly severely immunocompromised people. Also, some of the potential vaccines produce lower titer levels in elderly individuals and it's unclear whether the protection for them will be as strong as is in younger people. Not an issue with Moderna or Pfizer vaccines as far as we know.

3. Children rely on their parents for sound decision-making. Anti-vaxxers put their children at risk by leaving them unvaccinated.
