> Then doctors went through the records and now there are 200+ sick, 25 people dead from CVST alone (clotting that causes bleeding in the brain) with incidence in Norway 5 out of 130000 vaccinated.

Per https://vaccinetracker.ecdc.europa.eu/public/extensions/COVI..., that's 30M AZ doses. You're still talking about one in a million chance of death here.

> And if you compare that to CFR from COVID for person <50 years old without diabetes and hypertension

Add a few more exclusions and no one dies of COVID, sure.

The point he’s trying to make is that if you’re in a low risk group (let’s say under 30 for example) maybe it’s a better idea to just skip the vaccine.

I would still take the vaccine but the point I'm making is that it's serious enough to offer younger people some other vaccine, investigate why is it happening, how to fix it (use a different vector, adjuvant or dosage?) and roll it out safely. Call it version 1.1

1 in a million chance of vaccine death for AZ. Maybe 1 in 10m for JJ. 0 in 10 for the mrna vaccines.

10 in a million chance of death from covid in the 5-9 age group (the lowest risk group)

This is the perfect example of anti-vacc logic. They pick the latter because they heighten the risk of the former in their mind, while ignoring or downplaying the risk of the latter. Looking at the actual numbers, it makes no sense for anyone at any age to take their chances with covid over the vaccine.
