Very similar to the cost we would incur of avoiding driving due to how many it kills constantly. The benefits of accepting the risk outweigh the risk itself.
I believe I can stick to this well enough with the official numbers of deaths, but the truth is I am extremely skeptical of the legitimacy of those numbers considering how deaths get reported, in some cases with decapitations in motor accidents being included in the count because they had covid when it happened, as well as the funding incentives hospitals have to exaggerate their claims of patients dieing of covid. No I'm not claiming some conspiracy theory here, I mean, I think it is a conspiracy but not a deliberate one, its mostly everyone trying to do the right thing, it makes sense to divert more funds to hospitals dealing with a new deadly pandemic, but that also unfortunately creates an incentive to exaggerate to get more funds. Not some sinister plan, just the result of people behaving as people do.
