    0.1% chance of death is one in a thousand. That seems mighty high.

      “The COVID-19 age-adjusted death rate for the age 65 and over population was 533.5 per 100,000 standard population.”

      “the death rate for COVID-19 among adults aged 85 and over (1,645.0 per 100,000)”

      Assuming the relative was somewhere between 65 and 85 puts it at around 1 in a thousand.

        I think I misunderstood. I thought you were stating that the vaccine caused one in a thousand to die.

          I was saying 1 in a thousand to die from COVID vs 1 in a million to have complications from the vaccine.

            Yeah I see. I completely misread it
