I think Vienna's point isn't so much the risk of Covid vs. the risk of the


vaccine.

It's the risk of Covid in the generally considered low-risk groups vs. the tens of trillions of dollars we're spending to keep the country halfway shut down and in other health & social problems we're creating by trying to fight the virus.

For what our countermeasures are costing us, we need to get back to "normal" sooner than later. Maybe getting the elderly, the immuno-compromised, and the critical public-facing employees vaccinated needs to be enough so we can get on with life.
