Having read the actual medical journal papers of the early clinical trials, the MRNA vaccines were wildly effective against the early strains. If you have actual medical data published in journals and peer reviewed, I'd be very happy to see it, and possibly even change my opinion if it's convincing.
How many things are out there peer reviewed and complete BS?
There was huge political pressure and even till this day you can't criticize any of it even here. My prev comment is already hidden. Does that make you trust the data if you can't even question it publicly or you will lose your job?

The mask flip-flopping was unbelievable. In the beginning: masks are not effective, don't use them, stay six feet away. Then, some point later: you're careless and irresponsible of you do not wear masks as you will infect other people. Then, later, We're not sure about six feet, that was an old study regarding droplets and not aerosols. Oh, Covid transmits via droplets and aerosols, so masks are ineffective. Get the vaccine, two shots. No, no, wait, you'll need a booster... Wait, no, you need another one. Wait, wait, you'll need one every few months. Oh and wearing masks can have negative cognitive and health effects if you wear them for a prolonged amount of time. 1000+ days later, the 15 day flatten the curve emergency decree is over!
Now, I'm all for vaccines but I want proven vaccines not half-arsed vaccines approved after a 6 month study on efficacy and adverse effects.
Damn it, they should have had a dedicated team studying these exact things fomr the get-go but mr know it all Faucci was adamant he knew what he was talking about.
They should have been forthright and been truthful with people instead of spoon-feeding them and gaslighting them. We're adults, we can understand we're figuring things out and it's an emergent pandemic --but boy, the propaganda.
This is science. It changes its opinion as more information is gathered. This is a feature, not a bug. If you want universal answers that don't change, look to religion.

There was no guarantee that the world could develop and test an effective, safe vaccine in less than a year.

People seem to be very unaware of the sunken cost fallacy.
The worst part is that people refuse to believe fact to levels which the best nazi propagandists would balk at.
