> For there J+J vaccine, it's also a 1 in a million risk, but just of getting the clots, not dying. Your denominator could be wrong when you factor in the attr

  It's a good point - I don't know enough about the J+J one to comment on that, this was based on the AZ vaccine. Do you know if anyone has died from the J+J one? Because that's what I am comparing with for the AZ one, so it's actually in that sense less risky that AZ anyway.

    The link above states 3 women so far have died from J&J and 7 more remain hospitalized. If you do demographic-specific division and compare that to the likelihood that same demographic would die from COVID, it seems unclear to me that young women would come out better getting the J&J vaccine. Both things are very unlikely to happen, but ultimately it's easy to get a Pfizer or Moderna appointment these days (at least in my area) so I don't see the point in trying to pressure people into getting J&J if they're concerned about that specific vaccine. Pfizer/Moderna are probably more effective anyway.

      I’m here in the UK and we have limited supply of anything but he AZ vaccine which we make here, so it’s a slightly different story. We can’t choose what jab we get. You just get an appointment and get whatever you get when you arrive.
