"That’s the same risk as driving London to Liverpool"
This was the first one your website presented and I have no idea what it means.
- jonplackett 5y agoGood point! I was focussing on the UK since that's where the majority of AZ vaccine users are, but you're right. I'll swap in a more international first risk! Maybe tonight I can work out do an IP address lookup and personalise it for your locality ;)
- shawabawa3 5y agoThey are 2 cities in the UK that are ~220 miles apart, so 1 in a million people die every 220 miles driven
- happytoexplain 5y agoNot to be rude, but are you aware that Liverpool (like London) is a city? I guess I'm unsure what the confusion is.
- alistairSH 5y agoLondon and Liverpool are major cities in England. 200 miles, 4 hours drive time, roughly. Similar distance/time as DC to NYC.
- Y_Y 5y ago> I have no idea what it means You have the whole internet available. I bet you can work it out without too much effort.
- pithon 5y agoRisk of... dying? Being injured? Being hospitalized? Developing a life-threatening clot? Also it's missing a word "from" but I worked that out. Thanks for your contribution.
- happytoexplain 5y agoHa, none of us guessed right. I assume dying, since an analogy between other consequences of the two events would be so fuzzy.
- majewsky 5y agoI guess you may be confused by the missing "from". It should be "driving from London to Liverpool", whereas the present phrasing suggests we move a city with millions of inhabitants.
- happytoexplain 5y agoThat might actually be the problem - however, it's kind of a stretch to say it "should" be expressed that way. "Driving A to B" is a common phrase (as for whether it's technically correct, despite the ambiguity of meaning, I actually am not sure).
