I think we're overlooking that the majority of the people in the U.S. dying from Covid today aren't vaccinated and never abided by the mask mandates. They took health risks, risks having a non-zero chance of them getting Covid, and they lost. Even though the number of people dying per day today is as high as when the pandemic first started, the risks are totally different. Today you have a lot of control in managing your risk, you didn't have that control two years ago.

I don't think this take is fair to the people dying. The majority of people dying are old vulnerable vaccinated people. By making bold statements with possibly true per capita stats you cast the dying as people who took things into their own stupid hands.
