Well, what if i take a tiny bite of one? Will that kill me if it's one of the 7? Or would it just do something minor to me that tells me it's one of the bad ones?

I was trying to simplify the seriousness of COVID 19 which doctors in the media use to explain the effectiveness of vaccines. I live In Michigan and they have been protesting the stay at home order issued by our Governor. When I posted this 14% of the people in Michigan infected with COVID 19 had died. Obviously Capfriendly.com was the right forum because you are the only who responded.

Here are some stats in alberta canada

As of April 26 2021
Covid Deaths/Cases
2074/183301
.01% of Cases die.

Covid Deaths/Population (Population from start of 2021)
2074/4,436,258
.0005% of Population die.

Disclaimer: The same person testing positive twice will be put in case numbers twice, thus case numbers are actually lower.
Disclaimer 2: The number of covid deaths includes people who died with covid not from covid, thus death toll is actually smaller than it is.

Thanks. I don't know why this is not a more brought up statistic. Like really, 183301 and 2074 mean nothing if not put into context.

More I think of it, it is sorta OK comp, I think the question is not fair, I don't think people would get sick on purpose, or choice, while your question is a choice.

I wouldn't eat any because i'd get too paranoid. Besides, Skittles > M&Ms.
