You simply can't sue them.
What do they risk with no liability and billions to be made?

I am a big believer in taking responsibility for what happens to me.
I'm going to make a general comment here not directly related to vaccine manufacturers accountability. This need to ensure there is always someone to sue is very American in my opinion. It's like the USA no longer believes there is any other ways of resolving disagreements.
Commenting on this directly now. If vaccination goes bad to the point that requires that we hold the manufacturers responsible, why would a litigation that could end up costing the manufacturers a part of their profit change anything in the end? The only scenario where I could see this changing anything is if they are knowingly hurting people and are delusional enough to think a piece of paper somewhere saying they are not accountable would protect them from being destroyed by humanity. So in the case where there is a true conspiration to hurt people, nothing would protect these manufacturers.
So this is just to ensure they make even more money of of this crisis, by preventing little costly litigations from random people that had issues after taking the vaccines and wants to sue. It's just a money thing. It's not something that would ever shield them in case of a true conspiration.

And why get vaccinated against something that is 99%+ survivable?
That is indeed a very personal decision. Personally, I am going to do it mostly so I have proof of vaccination. Just going to make my life easier. Also, even if I already had Covid, maybe this will help me prevent spreading the virus if I get it again.
