It’s stupid because they don’t understand probability and risk assessment. Yeah there are side effects but they are exceedingly rare and even if you get them the outcomes are usually far less severe than the disease you’re trying to prevent. It’s like saying “I refuse to wear a seat belt because it might wrinkle my suit jacket.”
Yes people can die in a flight crash, but it’s more likely to die in a car crash so choosing the car over a plane is just dumb when it comes to risk manegement.
Yes almost all people who didn’t vaccinate against covid are still alive, but the percentage of people who took it is even higher.
When i jump out of a plane with a parachute i might die, it’s a risk either way so why should i bother to open it?

I think that’s up to each person to decide. Similar to how it’s rare to die in a flight crash and most people accept the risk, but not all.
Whats so complicated about probability? They know it’s a low probably, but it’s higher than zero, always.
Almost all people who didn’t vaccinate against covid are still alive and well you know.
People take a risk either way. Taking the vaccine or not taking it.
It’s a contagious disease, you won’t put other people in danger by not going on planes.
What is so fucking difficult to grasp that plague rats aren’t good for society.

I think it’s about having control over the risk too.
If you take a plane, you are not in control. When driving a car, you are. I think the latter makes a lot of people feel more comfortable.
Anyway, all these analogies are not really fitting. I think when it comes to covid, it’s each person’s decision what to do. Makes sense to me. :)
Yeah you’re totally in control when a truck driver falls asleep and crashes frontal into you.
Just like you’re totally in control when the person next to you in the train doesn’t wear a mask and spreads the virus towards you
Probably that it is at the end of the day still chance, and once it happens it happens.
Pretty sure that’s wrong.
You’re also taking a risk to take the disease head-on or not. Side effect of Covid include
-Excessively high fever
-Weakness
-Potential risk of Long Covid
-Fucking death
Look, I can see where you’re coming from even if I don’t agree with you, however
This is a straight up lie. Where the fuck have you been the last 4 years? Many people died, and many of those who didn’t have lasting issues.
