What's wrong with the Chinese one?
China was selling Covid tests that were only 10% accurate. Many people have little confidence in Chinese quality control. Is China monitoring adverse vaccine reactions? Would China hide that info? I always remember the Chinese infant formula that poisoned thousands of babies.

If a vaccine is 99% effective, then 1% of vaccinated could still get the disease.

According to JAVA Network (https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamainternalmedicine/fullarticle/
2774572), mortality of Covid patients averaged about 8.5%, of which 5% is estimated to be caused by
medical errors (from above). That leaves 3.5% mortality from Covid. In this case, you are more likely
to die from medical errors (5%) than from Covid (3.5%) if hospitalized.
I looked at that paper and it doesn't mention medical errors at all! One point the paper makes is,
In general, health outcomes improve with time, but this novel viral infection and our early access to a large set of patients provided an opportunity to see rapid improvement.
The biggest flaw in your argument is that you are assuming the same death rate for COVID patients without hospital care. Remember that only very sick COVID patients will be admitted to hospital because of the limited supply of beds and medical personnel.

The post Christmas travel in the USA (80+ million) has caused infections to increase greatly. Field hospitals are being constructed and refrigerated trucks for the dead are outside hospitals.

My prediction for 2021 is that BJ and the Tories will continue to blame the EU for all the UKs problems.

For some diseases, the treatment is worse than the disease, itself. Medical error is the third leading cause of death in the US, behind cancer and heart disease. ...
Do you have a cite for this? What I see is that accidents (vehicular, falls, drowning, etc.) is the 3rd leading cause of death.
The claim that medical errors are the third leading cause of death in the US has always rested on very shaky evidence; yet it’s become common wisdom that is cited as though everyone accepts it. But if estimates of 250,000 to 400,000 deaths due to medical error are way too high, what is the real number? A study published last month suggests that it’s almost certainly a lot lower and has been modestly decreasing since 1990.
