It's a 95% chance that you'll be protected from a virus that you're 99% likely to defeat. Not including any potential side effects of this vaccine, this increases your chance of survival from 99% to 99.95%. Eljah's reasoning is flawed.
This is one of the good arguments to be made against the vaccine, and u/4MoarYears has the right interpretation of the data. Lots of other claims posted here are just simply wrong.
Admittedly, taking the vaccine supposedly improves your survival rate 10x - 20x. However another counterpoint is the talk of requiring regular vaccinations. If that is true, you really cannot be sure how well protected you are at any given time.

Is it worth the risk of side effects for less than a 1% kicker?
