I'll take your word for it Jigg, I'm not following vaccine news because I probably won't get the vaccine. Myself and my family are fit and healthy and I tested positive for antibodies back in May anyway.
The only people that need a covid vaccine IMO are the people that need seasonal flu jabs. -

2020-11-19 at 5:20 PM UTCpretty sure ive been exposed to the virus, didnt fall ill. will probably pass on the 'cine.

2020-11-19 at 5:42 PM UTCFor most people the vaccine is going to be like wearing the mask...more for the protection of others (Re: them passing it on to more vulnerable people) than for themselves.
I know a lot of work places are going to require you to have it whether you like it or not...or you can find a new job I guess. My boss already said we'll all have to get it...he's a democrat. -
2020-11-19 at 5:58 PM UTCI would just say I got it and do heroin instead and take a sick day off, say it's a reaction to the vaccine and get high as fuck then come into work shaking shivering and puking and everyone will think you got covid lolThe following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire!

2020-11-19 at 6 PM UTCI thought about signing up for one of those vaccine test studies...yes i know that's counter to what I said about getting the vaccine itself but the difference is I'd be getting paid to risk my health.

2020-11-20 at 5:06 PM UTCWith a mortality rate of 0.3%, I just don't see why I would bother. It's the WuFlu, not small pox. I'd get vaccinated for something like small pox in a heartbeat.

11.8 mil infections

40% of people are asymptomatic, so you can multiply the cases by at least that many. Plenty of people have had the rona and never got tested, too.
Furthermore, the CDC came out with that handy dandy little memo a few weeks ago admitting only 6-7% of deaths are from covid. The rest are deaths with covid. Being generous, let's assume the death rate, then, is about 12% of those reported.
Cases:
11.8 mil x 0.40 = 4.72 mil
11.8 mil + 4.72 mil = 16.52 mil
Deaths:
252k x 0.12 = 30,240
Mortality Rate:
30,240 / 16.52 mil = 0.18%
US Population = ~375 mil
16.52 mil / 375 mil = 4.4% chance of being infected in America
30,240 / 375 mil = 0.008% chance (across all age groups) of dying from covid in AmericaThe following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

Yeah adding an assumed 4.72 million to the actual known numbers isn't how you work with statistics...
It's 2.1% per the officially recognized numbers. -

If 40% are asymptomatic and we know many people will have the disease without ever being tested, I think it's a fair assumption. -
