Nah bruh just because it was a mild case for you does not change the fact that it killed so many people. "All that fuss about COVID-19 is just insane", you say. Look I can't control whether or not people get vaccinated but let's show some respect to the gravity of the situation.
My grandma passed COVID-19. 91 years old. The vaccine was not available then. Vaccination started later on, so she was not vaccinated. She had no problem whatsoever to overcome COVID-19. She's totally fine.
Workmates (near retirement.. 60+) also passed COVID-19 unvaccinated, and they are now fine. Only one woman, in her fifties, with overweight, smoker, ended up in the ICU, and she was fine after 10 days too... she did not die or had any lasting secondary effect from COVID-19.
So this may be anecdotal, but I am explaining here that many unvaccinated people pass COVID-19 like it is nothing... and there were some very young people (30s) who had those horrible vaccines and died as a consequence. If they had not been vaccinated, they would be alive, with many years ahead to live. I feel for them.
The "normal flu" doesn't kill 1.02 million Americans (as of today).
The death rate of one disease or event depends on how it is calculated.
In Spain our government changed the criteria to calculate "deaths caused by traffic accidents" and now only those who die immediately in a traffic accident count. This means that someone involved in a traffic accident who dies as a result of it 2 days later is taken out of the statistics.
So it all depends on how the statistics and the numbers are calculated, and the criteria used.
