I’m not suggesting that 5K deaths isn’t tragic, it is.
I don’t know vax history enough to compare to prior vaccines, but the basis that i was referring to is the vaccine death rate versus the virus death rate,, so when you consider virus death rate (rounded) 0.5% for a young healthy to 5% for someone with a co-morbidity, then the vaccine’s 0.005% death rate makes it a factor of x100 to x1000 less risky than catching the virus.Everyone has to decide for themselves.
Note - I’m not trying to sell vaccines and haven’t taken it myself.I think there’s other reasons to be leery than this data.I prefer to wait for more data. Maybe Novavax late this year or the one in phase3 trials in UK thats more traditional- made from dead virus cells. I just don’t like seeing alarmism when I think the data doesn’t support it. I think it’s worth the time to follow this data cuz there isn’t much else to go by.

First, click on the two graphs I linked which clearly show “prior vaccines.” Then you WILL know vaccine history and you WILL know this carnage to date is unprecedented. That is not an opinion, it is fact which you can see for yourself.
Second, you seem to be making the mistake that many people do by comparing “vaccine death rate versus the virus death rate.” You leave out the significant factor in a valid equation....the fact that 90% of all Americans have not tested positive for covid to date (15 months.) They have suffered neither the virus effects or the vaccine effects.
In other words your comparison works only if most everyone will get covid if they do not get vaccinated. And that is blatantly untrue.
