Covid death rates are still 5x that of the flu, and higher even for unvaxxed/people who have had an early version.

No, this is wrong.

The recent “5 times higher deaths for the unvaccinated!!!” headline was a study the CDC cited that used predictive models to make the claim that you’re more likely to die being unvaccinated. They put a number on it of 5 times but it’s just estimates of what could happen, not what did happen.

There are no numbers that exist to back up your claim. Or post away with a source if you think it’s real.
