Eventhough it is a marginal statistic, we are talking multiple millions of people here. So not something to laugh about or to be ignored. I think the Western world should focus on getting the vaccine to "poor" countries, as that will really help the world.
@James - you are correct, and about half of that if you do not fall into any of the pre-existing conditions such as obesity, hypertension. Obviously a certain age group is also attacked more by this than others - so we should of course note that. But I sure wish these types of numbers were clearly spelled out in all the other main articles!
@Jerry. Is it as much as 1% I thought it was 0.4%
I wouldn't exactly say it's that deadly at 1% or less
