99% chance of death by vaccine. No thanks.

@Confined If it's not on the news how did you find out. Of course it is on the news. But as something like 500 million people have been vaccinated the average risk of dying is more like one in 500 000. But of course the average says very little about [i]your [/i]risk. If you are a fit young person your risk is much lower. If you are an obese, diabetic, 80 year old probably rather higher. But in the UK 185 people per 100 thousand population have died of the disease, that's one in 540 of the population.

If a vaccine brings that risk down to one in 500 thousand it sounds like a good deal to me.

VAERS.HHS.GOV. they are required to keep a web site of adverse effects and deaths. Pull the data.
The vaccines are not backed by FDA. Trump forced them to release for emergency use. Does not mean safe. I'll wait for the 5 year study on long term effects.

@Confined I've looked at your data for 2021 and all it says is that 34 thousand adverse effects were reported for all vaccines administered and that nearly two thousand died soon afterwards, of which about a thousand had received the Moderna COVID vaccine. It says little or nothing about the cause of death. And anyway, no one is denying that people die after receiving the vaccines. People die for all sorts of reasons. In particular the VAERS data says nothing about the prevalence or likelihood of dying of a COVID or any other vaccine.

Of course. But opting out is failing to respect and understand the science, which makes it an ignorant, lazy, and selfish choice. It's mostly based on irrational fear, much like opting out of getting flu shots or getting one's children their basic vaccinations.
@RedBaron "ignorant,lazy,selfish" "IRRATIONAL FEAR?" There's nothing irrational about not trusting "them"..

and a lot more.

@fernie2 Who are "they?" And comparing a vaccine to known harmful substances like tobacco, opioids, and asbestos is beyond stupid. You must be a very angry, unhappy person. But go ahead, be ignorant and paranoid. Whatever floats your boat.
@fernie2 I have no intention of engaging in what I know will be a ridiculous conversation with you dear..I am neither angry or unhappy.I feel sure that YOU are both though...by your many asinine comments.. I'm a realist. Your head is clearly jammed way up your butt.

Here you do but your decisions may affect others decisions like maybe no vaccination no job. It’s still your choice.

Yes. It is already the law in the USA that citizens can decline medical treatment. And now there is this: https://www.oatext.com/post-vaccination-inflammatory-syndrome-a-new-syndrome.php

It is already law in USA that citizens can reject medical treatment. But in other circumstances, I have always gotten vaccinated. Things are different now.
