Stop worrying.

Some men are evil. Some good men will die as a result. That has always been the case whether the evil men are carrying axes on a viking longship, or wielding syringes in a bio lab.

The solution is the same today as it was then. Put your faith in God, and avoid being evil yourself.

The potential for evil spreading today compared to Viking days is untold multiples of magnitude. How many billion people were tricked into taking this poison?

Our life expectancy is higher, so the risk to an individual of untimely death is lower.

Sorry, that does not compute.

You noted that today's evil affects more people.

My point is that that's because there are more people today, but that the chance of any one of us facing an untimely death appears to be lower today than it was twelve hundred years ago which is why we live longer than people did then.

If there were a hundred people in your village and the Vikings raided and killed or enslaved fifty of you - those were bad odds. If there are ten million people in your state, and the vaccine kills or injures 100,000 people then a great many more people are injured - but even so I'd rather risk the vaccine than the Vikings.

Does that make sense now?
