the COVID odds: drop your fear

Seen on Instapundit:

Understanding the Covid Odds: If you’ve been vaccinated and still feel mortally threatened by the virus, please read this.

Of course, the threat of Covid is greater for unvaccinated adults, but why should their personal decision to take that risk arouse so much angst among those who are safely vaccinated? The original argument for vaccine mandates—that they were necessary to stop the spread—is obsolete, now that it’s clear that vaccination doesn’t prevent reinfection and transmission. Even if vaccines might slow the spread, they won’t prevent the virus from eventually reaching everyone. In any case, the risk to the vaccinated is so low that there’s no justification for forcing everyone else to be jabbed.

There's a lot of irrational fear out there.
