Of course, if you are trying to avoid getting Covid, there is some amount of luck involved, regardless if you intend to get vaccinated or not. Also, in your case, I thought you already had it.
Specifically referring to Deez’s case, if you are holding out for 2 in the bush (avoid Covid and get the best vaccine) vs 1 in hand (getting vaccinated), that is a risk assessment. Choosing for 2 in the bush while at the same time delta is surging was a risky call. Absent of delta, it makes more sense.
Bottom line, Deez risked a lot just to get that better vaccine. To give you some perspective, delta ran through the home-schooled folks in my town. Multiple parents sent to the hospital, some on incubators. Just because you ran across a minefield without issues doesn’t imply it was a walk through the park.
