If people are cancerned about fatal disease, why does nobody proactively prevent catching the flu, given the stats of yealy deaths from influenza?
This question has been asked and answered many, many times. By now, asking this kind of question shows either an inability to search, to compare two different numbers for lethality, communicability or preventability; or this is classic false-dilemma crap from the anti-science crowd.
I was going to reply with actual answers, but then I realized that if you actually wanted to know the answers, you could take literally 30 seconds to look up any of those questions. And the fact that you’re still asking them given the ample time, means you’re either willfully ignorant, or just stirring the pot.
Could be that people need to stop being manipulated into living in fear, stop being a slave to their emotions, and accept that risks are part of living, and the only concrete garauntee you ave is that you will for sure die?
Literally just a list of reasons to get vaccinated.
Oh do you know of something to help a person never die, will never ever suffer death?
Do you have really any understanding of the concept of risk? Or is risk just a binary thing to you? Do you not look both ways before crossing the street either? After all you’ll die someday either way.

Some people do, about 20% in Saskatchewan.
I’ve been getting the annual flu vaccine since it became available.
I don’t particularly worry about disease and accidents and definitely don’t live in fear, but I take standard precautions: vaccinations, diet, fitness, PPE in my shop, etc. It’s all relatively simple and mostly low effort.
why does nobody proactively prevent catching the flu,
I get a flu shot every year. It would also be nice if people would wear masks in public when they were sick, but, well, for some reason that triggers certain people.
Since there are people still living life as normal having never gotten any covid shots, and what we know about nutrition and diet, isn’t it safer at the this point to never get a vaccine and devel ammunity?
Developing immunity (is that what you mean?) is what vaccines do. You’re just doing it with either a dead virus, or a weakened virus. Taking that a step further, the MRNA vaccine technology doesn’t even use the complete virus, just a piece of protein that initiates an immune response and activates your anti-bodies. You don’t feel sick because you have the illness, you feel sick because your body has started responding to what it thinks is illness.

That would be very nice, please stop doing it.
accept that risks are part of living
They absolutely are a part of living. I still look both ways before I cross the street. I cook chicken before I eat it. I don’t smoke. I drive on the right side of the road, and don’t drive recklessly.
Oh do you know of something to help a person never die, will never ever suffer death?
I do not. But I do know of a general set of rules that will allow people to live longer, with a better quality of life. Part of that is preventing diseases like polio that have life-long consequences.

Your answers are found trivially via google.

Just flag him as a troll and move along. :)
