Relative risk or....

I’m not sure I understand the question well enough to answer appropriately. When I made the call I didn’t really have good information on outcomes in those that got the jab vs those that did not. So in a strict statistical sense, no. For me it was simply that I was not in a vulnerable demographic so a less than 1% chance of death vs unquantifiable risk associated with medical intervention for which there is no long term data. To me, the math said I should take my chances. I still don’t fault those that saw the equation differently.
