You'd have to ask GOP leadership why they were pushing to reopen despite the risks. Seems irresponsible to me, but some of them seemed to favor the economy over the health of citizens : COVID-19: Texas official suggests elderly willing to die for economy
I did, in the very post you quoted. You don't need a really rigorous accounting to know that a vaccine which the data says is very safe is a way better risk than a disease which has spread to 10% of the population in a bit over a year.
The quote had nothing to about the fatality rate of covid, so you repeating this mantra has little to do with the discussion. I imagine it might be comforting to return to "only 1% die, only 1% die" when facts start coming up which run into what one wishes were true, though.
Hey buddy! Some of us could not do the Chicken Dance for a whole day after the injection. He may have had similar concerns.
Correct. But it could make us go back to having the choice of a lock down or the hospitals being overwhelmed. One of the factors in the deadliness of this virus was that the sudden surge in ill people in numbers greater than hospitals could handle resulted in many people dying that otherwise would have lived. One cannot say for sure that individual X would have survived if he was hospitalized and properly treated, but one can say that instead of 1,000 deaths in an area there might have been 500 or less.
