Problem is noo they want people who otherwise would not suffer anything from covid-19, to RISK their own lives with uncertainty by using experimental vaccines, just to protect the weak minority who would've been affected by covid-19.
Why should the majority people who could survive the virus easily (majority) risk their health with experimental vaccines for the weak minority (who would've been killed by the flu anyway) ?
It makes no sense at all.
You’ll never hear the mainstream media breakdown the risk benefit for vaccines by age group. Even in this opinion piece they quote the overall mortality risk of 0.37%. Whereas the infection fatality ratio for those in some age groups is about two orders of magnitude lower than this figure, per cdc.Why should the majority people who could survive the virus easily (majority) risk their health with experimental vaccines for the weak minority (who would've been killed by the flu anyway) ?
It makes no sense at all.
At those low levels, the slight risk of developing cardiovascular complications from the vaccines (if proven) start to become a concern to those healthy young populations.
Also I would be curious, what are the age and health profiles (comorbidities) of the 14% of those diagnosed with covid who have to be hospitalized because they develop cytokines storms, according to this editorial.
