High Covid Vaccine Deaths Not Due to Over-Reporting, Data Suggest

by Will Jones
13 June 2022 6:10 PM

OpenVAERS, the site which makes data from the U.S. vaccine adverse event reporting system (VAERS) accessible, has added a new feature which neatly illustrates that the high number of reported fatalities from the Covid vaccines is unlikely to be due to an unusually high reporting rate in 2021 and 2022.

The new feature allows you quickly to compare deaths reported for Covid vaccines and other vaccines by turning on and off the data for each. This allows you to see that the reports for other vaccines remain at a normal (relatively low) level, whereas the reports for Covid vaccines are many times higher – 41 times higher than for other vaccines in 2021 and 29 times higher in 2022 so far (up to June 3rd). This is an indication that suspected Covid vaccine deaths are not being reported at an unusually high rate owing to increased propensity to report in 2021 and 2022 compared to previous years.

OpenVAERS (date to June 3rd 2022)
Non-Covid vaccine deaths

These figures don’t take into account the number of vaccine doses delivered. There were 590 million Covid vaccines doses distributed in the U.S. up to June 3rd 2022 and 13,365 reported deaths, giving a rate of 22.7 deaths per million doses (using data just on U.S. deaths and not deaths reported from overseas). In 2019 there were around 180 million flu vaccinations distributed in the U.S. and 181 reported deaths, giving a reported rate of one death per million doses (on the conservative assumption that all U.S. reported vaccine deaths in 2019 were due to the flu vaccine, which is the main vaccine given to older folk).

This means that around 23 times more U.S. deaths per dose have been reported for Covid vaccines than for flu vaccines, a figure which we can now see was not due to 2021 and 2022 being bumper years for reporting.

Note that these figures do not take into account under-reporting. The under-reporting factor for vaccine deaths is estimated to be somewhere between 10 and 100 (so that the real number of deaths is 10-100 times higher than the reported number).

The new OpenVAERS feature was added following a talk by Steve Kirsch this week (slide deck here) in which the significance of the comparison to non-Covid vaccinations was underlined.

Such weakminded thinking, that says

Natural == Good

aridet aridum, was the motto of the Leeds man who drained the Norfolk Fens of their natural sogginess. Yet the Green Blob goes into overdrive whenever the waters reclaim their place, screaming that “man-made climate change” is causing flooding which in turn, they say, is robbing the poor nesting birds of their homes (and the nimbys of their back yards).

You can’t fix ignorant and stupid.

Can I assume that a ‘Special Representative for Nature’ will campaign ferociously to stop our green and pleasant land from being covered in solar panels and to prevent our skies being infested with bird killing windmills? Also will this Nature representative fervently make representations to the Foreign Office to speak out against the lithium mines which are devastating the environment in some areas of our planet in order to save the planet by pushing us all into EVs?

Will she be looking into why there has been a big increase in strandings of whales, dolphins and porpoises around the UK shores that seems to correlate with the increase in the off shore windmill industry….no, thought not.

Does this mean that all foreign aid will be dependent on receiving countries agreeing to turn their backs on cheap energy (i.e. carbon-based fuels) and stifle their emerging economies so that they can join the UK on the descent back down to poverty in a net-zero world?

“In fact, why not abolish Parliament – do away with the pretence that there is any form of representative democracy in Westminster?”

This is the problem. Our ‘representatives’ are not interested in representing ‘the people’. There is too much at stake for them to give up the lucrative gravy train they have embarked on as a career choice. Somehow the selection process for candidates has to be on the basis of their commitment to the community/nation rather the the tribe/party they choose to represent. Government has become an organised dodgy cartel full of rent seekers and revolving door grifters. Perhaps a system that selects people at random like the Jury service, selecting candidates from a pool of people of a certain age and experience and other criteria would work better? And also, limit their term of office to one parliament or a maximum term of four-five years to eradicate career politicians milking the system.

If the public had wanted all these Green policies, they would have voted for the Green Party, which would have a large majority in Parliament. But the public DIDN’T vote for the Green Party or its crazed, destructive policies.

For years the Green Party had only ONE MP in Parliament. Now they have FOUR.

And yet every political party is carrying out Extreme Green policies WITHOUT A MANDATE from the voters, without permission from the voters, without the consent of the voters.

It’s a travesty of democracy.

If she will “put climate and nature at the heart of our foreign policy” then she will undoubtedly promote the creation of CO2 as the ‘Oxygen’ of plant life, especially since atmospheric CO2 values are currently so low.

Hope dies last.
