Is the story true
If the vaccine kills , lets say 1 in a 1000000, should we still use it ?
There is enough detail in the story that it can be checked out for veracity.
The vaccine is probably not a good idea for that 1 in a million you mention. The answer to that question involves yet another question that begs to be answered before the original question can be answered: how many killings are acceptable? What if that one in a million ticket happens to be yours, or mine?
And, finally, I don't think we have enough people vaccinated to determine the death ratio, but anecdotally from what we have, it seems to be a good bit higher than 1 in a million.
