Yes, but unfortunately this people exist!
And people keep dying.
I also have taken 2 doses of Pfizer.
Prevention is good but no one is free from getting the disease.

I am posting also there.
One year into this pandemic, we have gained a lot of experience. We know what works to slow or stop the spread of the virus. Wearing masks, frequent hand washing, and physical distancing stops transmission, and saves lives. We also know that targeted social measures such as lockdowns and stay-at-home orders are effective in stopping transmission, especially if there is community support, though they do have significant economic and social impacts. There is no easy way out of this pandemic and unfortunately, it is far from over.
I worked through the most severe outbreak in the country in NYC at the very height of Covid while every else was locked down.
I’m still unvaccinated.
My chances of dying from Covid, according to all recent statistics, are microscopic. The survivability rate for most humans is 99.8% and above….but that’s only some of the story.
The CDC estimates ACTUAL infection rate could be as much as TEN TIMES HIGHER than what’s reported.
That would make the real case fatality rate a joke.

I suppose your calculus come from:
Risk of death: = numbers of death/ total world population
Risk of death: 4.5 million/7.9 billion (data of oct 27, 2021)
Risk of death: 4.5 million/7.9 billion
Risk of death: 0.000569
Risk of death: 0.0569%
My numbers come from Stanford University and John’s Hopkins.
The CDC released the survivability some time ago by age group and it was very high.
Now Stanford says it’s even higher but they only take into account cases. If the CDC is correct and the cases are really as much as 10x higher than reported the case fatality is really microscopic for healthy people.
