A little more on topic, a repeating theme in this thread seems to be that people don't see a point in getting a vaccination since there is so little chance they will get it, and so little chance that they will die if they do get it.
I guess I have to ask, is that the same small chance the 550,000 that died had?

Nope. Of those 550,000 87% were overweight or obese. Each had an average of 2.6 comorbidities. If you aren’t overweight or obese the chance of being hospitalized, at my age is 4/100’s of 1%. And since I don’t have heart disease, lung disease or diabetes it’s considerably lower than that...
