There is no such thing as zero risk. With anything. But you can compare risks with the alternative (not getting a vaccine).

There’s already been billions of doses administered and millions of Covid patients. We know risks pretty well.

Not over the long term (multiple years, decades), we don't.

What are you talking about now? The vaccine or the virus? Because that's literally true for both! And the mRNA vaccine has a fraction of the code compared to the full virus.

You have been infected with Coronavirus before.

Coronavirus causes the common cold, and has been around for at least 10,000 years. [0]

You seem quite confused. Nothing you say is relevant. Also many different viruses cause the common cold. Several are not coronavirus.
