> you're better off taking your chances on the vaccine

I hate this kind of advice. It is like nutritional advice. "eat less omega 6", etc. None of it applies to any one person. What if I don't interact with humans and live on an island? What if I am a certain age, etc.

I'd say you're missing the forest for the trees. You'd be hard pressed to come up with a realistic scenario where I would advise you that your odds are indeed better without the vaccine.

If you live on an island in complete isolation chances are you wouldn’t care too much about general recommendations intended for the majority.
