My dad is mid 80's, healthy AF, just finished reroofing his 2 story 2500 sq ft house, and is notoriously anti-doctor... received his vaccination when it was first available. He had an appt last week where the dr recommended a pace maker and he told them to "sit on it" (his words) because he doesn't need one. He refuses to go on medications or get regular checkups, but gets his Flu vaccine annually and got the Johnson and Johnson Vaxx.

So yeah, I am inclined to believe that statistic. Obviously this is anecdotal, and I totally understand your hesitancy to trust the numbers.
