- 41 lightning deaths per year in the USA [1] out of 328M people. 41/328M = 1.25e-7

- 1,263 covid deaths in the USA out of 163M vaccinated [2]. 1263/163M = 7.75e-6 and it's not even August.

Seems wrong, by more than (vaccinated=1263/163M)/(lightning=41/328M) = 62x. Or am I missing something?

No, you pegged the piece properly.

Your second numerator should be COVID deaths of vaccinated people, not total COVID deaths.

Well there are more thunderstorms this year, in Ohio at least. Even brick walls are getting destroyed by them.
