Still need the jab?
What are the odds for unvaccinated dying of covid; dying in hospital? Its not on the chart. Originally Posted by dilbert firestormYeah, no kidding!

Well if herd immunity were to never kick in, and COVID stuck around like the common cold, and it didn’t become any less lethal, then maybe yes. On the other hand if the disease mostly dies out because of immunity conferred through vaccinations and infections, then it’s a blip that just lasts for a few years, so the chances most of us would die from it over our lifetimes would be much less than 1 in 10. It’s too early to try to estimate odds I suspect. Reddog could probably give us an educated guess if he resurfaced
What I'd really like to know is how many of the "anti-vaxxers" are vaccinated? Is it like the Repulican party where they have taken it at first chance and won't publically acknowlege it?

The majority of Republicans have gotten vaccinated according to polls
