The chance of healthy young males dying from Covid is close to zero and not 0.3%. I recently had Covid, less than 6 months after the booster and I don’t think it could have been worse than it was. The third shot measurably impacted my fitness metrics, according do my Apple Watch (sharp decline in VO2max, which took months to recover and even pre Covid it was 3 points off)

Really? Close to zero? Whats the exact number? Funnily enough your risk of vaccine myocarditis is also close to zero 0.01%

And why are we comparing FATALITY rates with myocarditis rate. Does the spike protein also make people stupid?

As for anecdata, I know a healthy 27 year old girl who died of covid19. But luckily for her, she did not get myocarditis as she wasn't vaccinated.
