25% of those who died under age 21 had no pre-existing condition, according to the CDC analysis. https://www.upi.com/Health_News/2020/09/15/75-of-youths-who-...
I believe the data does support my statement that hundreds of young and healthy people have died from covid. The risk is close to zero, yes, but still greater than the reported risk from this vaccine.
Close to 3000 people ages 25 to 34 have officially died in the USA from covid-19. If the same 75%/25% division the cdc found for under 21 applies to this group, that’s 750 young and healthy people who died so far just in the age 25-34 age group.
> COVID is largely avoidable, if you don't mind being avoiding others
Huge assumption. Many workers need to work in person and are going to be exposed. Many others live in a home with someone who is an essential worker, or doesn’t believe in covid being dangerous or taking precautions.
It really isn’t fair to blame everyone catching covid today and say they could have simply avoided it. Also, getting a vaccine is absolutely avoidable. No one is being forcibly vaccinated right now.
