OK cool. A coworker of mine got the vax, and within a week ended up in the hospital with chest pain, and more recentkly again has been coughing up blood. They don't know what it is, but they 'know it's not the vax'. Since I am to accept your outlier cases as evidence of the pandemics severity, you will have to accept my outlier case as evidence of the vaccines dangers.
There are always outliers, like albino humans or animals, for example. But that doesn't mean saying 'tigers are orange and black' is stupid or inaccurate. The pandemic has not been downplayed; it's been excessively and incessantly overhyped to the detriment of all else for nearly 2 years now. What you consider me downplaying the pandemic is actually an attempt to bring the rhetoric down to normal levels, and inject some non-panic porn data into the discussion. You CAN say the virus generally kills 'XYZ', because like tigers being orange, there is a general rule. Data:
Worldometer - cases globally: 252,370,436
CDC: 10x as many infections as known
CDC says COVID-19 cases in U.S. may be 10 times higher than reported (nbcnews.com)
252,000,000 x 10 = 2.5BILLION cases
Worldometer deaths - 5,092,420
There is no age breakdown for global death stats by age, but US deaths by age are easy to find. The vast majority are 50-60+ WITH comorbidities.
Yes, CV preferentially kills the old and severely infirm, with the risk to young people being thousands of times lower. For perspective, last time I checked CV was the 8th deadliest thing to youth, with risky things like swimming, riding in a car, fires, firearms, and more, causing exponentially more deaths, but you give those no thought. And this is before we even dig into the falsification and misclassification of CV deaths.
