Whey we’re not doing a risk/benefit analysis of the vaccine makes no sense to me.
For healthy young people, the risk of the vaccine outweighs the risk of the virus, as few of them die or have any long term problems after contracting it.
For the elderly or those with a chronic medical condition (like bronchitis) the risk of the disease outweighs the risk of the vaccine.
If someone did a risk/benefit analysis of the vaccine it would be the first risk/benefit analysis anyone did of anything related to COVID.
That's why some of us tuned out the COVID hysteria very soon after it started more than 15 months ago.
I share your frustration, but our government and public health class seems entirely incapable of doing anything other than a one-size fits all, only the vaccine can help, and a 5 year old is the same as a heavy 60 year old approach.
It is wrong on every level including the “science”.
