My dad is upset with me that I'm not going to take the vaccine once it gets offered to my age group in my postal code. Why the fuck do I need it for? My dad got the jab 22 days ago. He should be immune or at least have protection versus the virus. Our society is mentally ill. The case fatality rate in my age group is <0.02%. The case-hospitalization rate is 1.05% (the vast majority of which are acute care admissions, not ICU). And I'm not obese or immuno-compromised. There are more landwhales in my age group as a percentage than there are people in my age group who end up in acute care with COVID as a percentage. Let that sink in.
Why does 75% of the population need to take the vaccine when 12% of Ontario's population (70+) makes up 85% of the COVID-19 deaths?
