I think you might be the one who has a problem with statistics.

UK death rate is 3.6%
USA death rate is 1.9%

I think it’s safe to say that well over 1% of people who catch COVID have a rather large issue (i.e. they dead). Feel free to educate yourself at the following link,

https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/data/mortality

I think it’s also safe to say, well over 1% of people have serious consequences, the US had over 100,000 people in intensive care on 2 Dec.
