While I encourage everyone eligible to protect themselves by getting vaccinated, deaths in that age range are extremely rare. The CDC estimated the overall infection fatality rate for people in the 18-49 age group at 0.08%.

Hospitalization rate's somewhat higher, and last I checked vaccine drops that to like 10% the unvaccinated rate. That's not death, but being hospitalized isn't exactly fun, and can be damn expensive. Agreed that risk of death, even unvaccinated, is pretty low if you aren't fairly old and don't have significant other factors that put you at higher risk.
It’s actually wild to me at this point given the extremely clear data readily available that you are still “not convinced” though. Amazing!
