A fair percentage of them are? Certainly higher percentage than people that are vaccinated.

There are several other factors at work here, and I get that you are responding to a mock question with a mock answer.

No, not a fair percentage. Extremely few have died

Tell that to countries like Peru and Mexico who had little vaccination and a mortality rate of nearly 5%. Compared to the countries who had the highest vaccination rate with mortality of less than .05%

So... over 100 times more?

USA and CA had 1.1% so 5 times more... (erm that makes no sense, but you get what i mean. I need coffee)

Those numbers aren't accurate. They didn't have the same insane drive to try to find and record every case, so the death percentage is artificially inflated
