I have worked frontline since the pandemic started. been exposed to covid numerous times. yet i've never tested positive for covid. i'm weighing the benefits of getting the vaccine. with other health issues, should i take the vaccine?

All in all, you will be far better off not taking your prior risks and get the jab. Emerging variants will create newer complexities, and it is safest to protect yourself.

Take the vaccine. Even if you had asymptomatic Covid infection , it may not protect you against a different strain. Vaccine provides better protection. Wish you good health!

Consider yourself very lucky. The risk of contracting Covid if unvaccinated is immensely greater than if vaccinated. And the chance of requiring hospitalization is immensely greater. You have been playing Russian roulette, It's only a matter of time until the hammer lands on the cylinder with the Covid Virus Bullet in it.
