Original Note:
The 99% stat stems largely from May 2020 analysis that has yet to be peer-reviewed or even published. Instead, it’s been twisted by people whose interests lie in pretending COVID-19 doesn’t exist. Entire country can't be used to calculate individual’s chance of dying. https://www.vice.com/en/article/do-99-percent-of-people-survive-covid-19-myths-argument/ https://www.reuters.com/article/uk-factcheck-vaccine-comparison/fact-check-misleading-comparison-between-covid-19-mortality-rate-and-vaccine-efficiency-idUSKBN2802H4/
