Really comes down to genetics. The same reason some people can smoke everyday of their life and never get lung cancer and others never get smoke and die from lung cancer. Do what you can to prevent then love each day to fullest.
Sitting around worrying about dying is not living.

How do we know the shots and boosters reduce symptoms? Because they say so? Last month more vaccinated people died from covid (there is another discussion) than non-vaccinated people. With about 72% of the total population having received at least the 2 original shots, it would make sense that more would die, be hospitalized vs the non vaxxed, except that we are told it prevents, or reduces the symptoms of covid. It is not like comparing blue eyes group to brown eyes group. The 72% are meant to gain immunity (original thought) or decreased symptoms. On to Paxlovid; recently the WHO has reported something called the Covid Rebound for vaccinated individuals treated with Paxlovid. Worried about losing more credibility, they report Paxlovid rebound patients did not show drug resistance or impaired immunity; UC San Diego study suggests insufficient drug exposure was most likely cause. Most likely? Ok. I have gone from Pro Covid vaccine, to being for each person to decide what is best for them. It is difficult to know what to believe anymore. I put some trust in Dr Campbell (see his daily reports online). He seems to be open to views based on new data.
