Original Note:
Although the community notes poster is correct the RCT are not always appropriate or ethical, COVID has an infection fatality risk estimated as as low as 0.000015% for some age groups. An RCT to quantify benefit for different populations is absolutely appropriate. https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/winter-coronavirus-covid-19-infection-study-estimates-of-epidemiological-characteristics-england-and-scotland-2023-to-2024/winter-coronavirus-covid-19-infection-study-estimates-of-infection-hospitalisation-and-fatality-risk-30-may-2024#infection-fatality-risk-1
