Most deadly thing might be complacency!
You also assume that people who get covid get symptoms and get tested and are confirmed positive.
The ratios could be worse or better than advertised depending on false positives and false negatives or even people who are positive dont get sick and don't get tested.
You give 25 million people a vaccine and if its 1 in 1000 that end up with a problem you condemn 25000 people guaranteed to potentially save 1 in God knows how many positive who are also categorised as high risk and likely to kick it.
Its like driving yourself crazy trying to stop yourself from going crazy.
Might as well just let yourself go crazy and be done with it.
Note this isn't me stating we should let it rip. I think what we are currently doing is a perfectly fine approach sans vaccine.
