We are bumping into a fundamental problem with human heuristics. Humans are bad at judging odds that aren't 50:50. The same reason people can't figure out that 1:100 is *terribly dangerous* for an infectious disease is the same reason casinos work.

Even with 50-50. Americans invest far too conservatively because they feel loss more painfully than the joy of gains, misjudging the long run results badly.

Plus, the word "healthy" is a loaded word here. So many have some sort of health condition that puts them at greater risk, diabetes, heart disease, asthma, obesity, the list goes on. Even if you do seem to be healthy, you could easily have a medical condition you are unaware of.

It's the reason I believe there's still a place for relative risk statistics. Your chance of being struck by lightning while tap dancing on a tin roof holding an umbrella in a rain storm is "extremely low", but it's a relative risk elevation of thousands of times.pic.twitter.com/DdMsH4QHFB
