Less, no? 1/million is the risk so far of clots, not of death.

There's about 1/250,000 risk of clots, but they are treatable.
In the UK there's been 19 people die after ~20 million vaccinations.

That’s assuming J and J has same incidence as AZ. J and J so far has had 6 clots for seven million doses.
Of course some more may show up in coming days from prior vaccinations.

One caution here; at least with AZ, apparent rate of clots varied dramatically by country, and rates generally went up once people knew what they were looking for. It's plausible that a lot of early ones were missed entirely or misattributed.

That's 6 unusual/dangerous cerebral clots per 7 million doses, not all blood clots. There were 50% more clots of any types in the vaccine trials of 20k people [0] (15 blood clots in vaccinated group versus 10 in the placebo group).

Ah yes, that is true! This site is based on AZ, but you're right it might be a different story with J+J. I wonder if as well, they'll get better at spotting the blood clots and treating which could also be happening - but that's just conjecture / hopeful thinking at this point.

Your link only has IPv6 records but the www. subdomain has IPv4.

Hey. What will that mean exactly? DNS is through Cloudflare using their magical CNAME pointer. Can you access OK?

I see IPv4 A records. I am guessing what's happening is that when you look up the DNS over IPv6, it gives you AAAA records instead of A records. Or, it can depend on locality. Cloudflare is not a DNS provider that gives the same answer to everyone -- its goal is to direct traffic to the cache that's closest to the end user.
Edit: I looked into it more and I can get IPv6 and IPv4 DNS servers to serve me both A and AAAA records. The site is now down, however :)

Thanks for checking. Much appreciated.
Yeah I banked too much on Cloudflare... I've ramped up its dyno a bit now too. Hopefully that'll keep it up!

At the time, the non-www subdomain only had IPv6 and I'm not running dual stack. They now look identical.

It meant that anyone not using IPv6 or a dual stack provider wouldn't be able to view the site through the non-www domain. However, they look identical now, so you're good.
We 'spend' about one micromort of risk per day of being alive. Or you can spend one walking for 6 hours, or driving 250 miles (or 6 miles on a motorbike)
I just made a website to show all the other stuff we do all the time without worrying with the same (extremely low) level of risk
