Can't really do much with absolute numbers, they must be per capita and compared to other ailments

The absolute numbers are actually a pretty good rebuttal to a comment that says "never".
If you want to talk about it as a rate that's fine, but the pre-vaccine risk of dying from covid for a healthy person in their 40s or 50s was probably comparable to their lifetime risk of dying in a vehicular collision, it's not a small thing.
