Food for thought- i've just been dabbling with an online calculator and it came up with some shocking figures-
Suppose the vaccine was 99.9% perfectly safe and only .1% (point 1 percent) of people suffered a bad reaction and died, that .1% represents a whopping 308,000 who'd die of the jab if everybody in the USA's population of 308 million was vaccinated.
And if everybody in the UK's 66 million population was vaccinated, the jab would kill 66,000 of them.
On a smaller scale, in a city of 1 million people, 1000 would die.
And on an even smaller scale, in a town or village of 1000 people, 1 would die.
Of couse, I'm only using the figure of .1% as a guess, but the vaccine might be safer (or more deadlier) than that, so we'd just have to keep our fingers crossed and hope the jab won't kill us if we have it..
