Covid vaccine hesitancy is at an all-time high, even though over 99% of people dying from covid are unvaccinated. The new Delta variant is spreading like wildfire, and the virus will likely mutate again. And yet, anti-vaxxers, worried about the risk of the vaccine, routinely shrug off the risk of the virus, citing the 99% covid survival rate. But there's a major mental shortcut many of them take in doing this.
