@lain renting a car? not sure why there is a difference. maybe just a statistical error but why? maybe p-hacking?
@khaosgrille might be that because of vaccination priorization most of the people who are vaccinated are "risk group" people so they have a legitimate reason to be more careful.
@lain @khaosgrille that and people who are willing to get the vaccine are more risk-averse generally speaking compared to people who vocally refuse it, which likely helps skew the numbers as well (for the record, I'm not comfortable with most public activities for the time being despite being fully vaccinated)
@allison @lain @khaosgrille I don't see how they're more risk adverse since the risk of experimental vaccination isn't really known. Unknown risk is perhaps the most risky, and if you're truly risk adverse you should assume the worst.

@crunklord420 @allison @khaosgrille @lain The more risk-adverse are the elderly, so they probably don't care if they die from any long-term side effects because they would still consider it living a full life. Also, old people have weak immune systems which would make them less susceptible from dying of antibody-dependency enhancement if the shots cause it (which there still is a possibility in some cases).
Having an excellent immune system, I think I pose a bigger risk taking this vaccine than not. That's why I'm trying my best to avoid taking it.
