2. It doesn’t seem to be true that getting the COVID19 infection confers better immunity than getting one of the mRNA vaccines:

I don't recall reading about other vaccines and their side effects and whether people have died throughout a year.. for instance, we dont hear about people dying or having side effects from the normal influenza jab

Is this happening more often than it did with other vaccines?
Seems to be more side effects happening with these vaccines but maybe that's because we are dealing with this virus right now. I don't recall reading about other vaccines and their side effects and whether people have died throughout a year.. for instance, we dont hear about people dying or having side effects from the normal influenza jab!

None of the 4 had covid. The average after a viral infection is 1 in 100,000. That would mean the vaccine is certainly not riskier as far as GB goes than the average viral infection. You are tossing the dice either way, this is not something where the vaccine has risk and no vaccine has no risk. It sucks when something like this happens, but risk is REDUCED by the vaccine.
I'm not sure you are doing the math correctly.
If you do nothing, you risk getting covid, and if you do, you have a small chance of dying from it. (if you take the jab, you can still get covid, though it might not be as severe)
however, if you take the jab, you have a small chance of dying from the jab, and so far, the side effects either aren't known, or aren't advertised. Have you seen a list yet?
And if you had covid and got over it, you likely are more protected than if you get the vaccine, and if you don't take the shot, you can't be killed by it. And as we heard, this virus was horrible and most would get it, since it was so widespread that we all needed to pretend to be ER doc's in our dress up routine.
I see it as more risky to take the shot unless you are in the "likely going to die from covid" group. But I don't do math well either.

You do if you listen. In fact one of the questions asked before anyone can get the flu vax is whether they have ever had GB, because GB is a known side effect. Every flu jab the recipient must certify they have never had GB.

A friend's 35 year old daughter was hospitalized with anaphylactic shock after her injection, survived, but ended up with a months long (permanent?) case of GBS.

This is a possible side effect of any virus or vaccine. 4 people out of how many who have gotten the vax?
