Relative risk: numbers who might die in Australia per 100,000 people from: AstraZeneca vaccine: 0.3, road accident: 4.7, (2019 figure), unvaccinated & contract COVID: 300-800. There are age effects in all of these, but massively weighted in favor of the vaccine for older people

A thought regarding the balance of personal risks of vaccination for children (population calculation fairly clear). One should include the risk of transmitting the virus to the parents. Even a small chance of losing a parent is an extremely serious outcome.

That is an interesting thought! Hard to factor into your risk equation tho
