Heart disease also kills approximately 600k in the US each year. Do you also advocate to mandate a ban on fast/junk food?
Using your own words, are those people who are overweight and obese not also overwhelming healthcare systems? Do they not injure their caretakers simply by being too heavy to lift when needed? Do they not leave their families with a gaping hole in their lives with them gone?
Since I'm on the PC this time, I'll link my screenshots and sources.

78% of COVID-19 patients hospitalized in the US overweight or obese, CDC finds

Also some quick math:
33mil Covid cases (unsure if repeats. We'll assume no) out of 331mil population in the US. 10% chance to contract it in the first place.
Then:
603000 dead out of 33mil. 1% chance to die because of it. So, total, .1% chance of death from this all together.
Additionally, it appears 78% of the hospitalizations are overweight and obese. So that's, what .03% chance for a healthy person to die from this?
If there's even a .5% chance the vaccine negatively can affect me it's not worth the risk for me to take it to protect .03% of people who deserve the protection, IMO. Again, call me a monster, but these are the numbers.
If .1% is 1/1000 then .03% is 3/10000 correct?
Using this figure (which I know you doubt)
So, approximately 3.33/10,000? I'm as likely to die from the vaccine as I am from Covid itself. But, unlike Covid, which I may never even get in the first place, if I get the vaccine that's it. Those odds aren't worth it to me or my family.
