330.6 million doses have been issued in the US. As a result of those, 6,985 deaths occurred. That's an incidence rate of 2.1 vaccine deaths per 100,000 doses issued, not 3.83.
The US's covid deaths per million is 1837, or 183.7 per 100,000 (roughly corrorpborated by this). Not 1.8. You're off a couple of decimal points.
So according to those numbers, it's 87.6 times safer to get the vaccine than not.
Exactly. The other thing is you have to consider age/comorbidities, which has a huge impact on the outcome. For example, if you're counting <18, no comorbidities (including fucking obesity, which apparently isn't a comorbidity anymore), my understanding is that there have been zero deaths in Canada. Yet the vaccine side effects seem to be somewhat consistent with age, suggesting that literally any side effects would push it over the edge.
At the same time, if you're 90 years old, TAKE THE FUCKING SHOT, even if it's experimental.
What is currently not clear is the young adult demographic, as they have very low rates of covid mortality, but also the vaccine risk is very low as well.

Disagree with your last line. You can't infer whether it's safer to get or not get the 'vaccine'. They're not related stats.
You have 100% survival from vaccine injury if you don't get it. It's not known whether or not it reduces chance of death from the coov.
Per CDC, only 4% of covid "deaths" were from covid alone, but keep trying.
Ok. In that case, getting the vaccine is 3.5% safer than not getting it.

This post is misleading as shit.
