Over the past week there have been a number of posts about data on deaths in England by vaccination status, both for deaths related to Covid and other deaths. For example, this post on Twitter:
Oh dear, let’s hope this isn’t true

This approach doesn’t tell the whole story, however – there are far fewer unvaccinated in England thus you’d expect there to be far fewer deaths with Covid.
The actual data from the ONS suggest that there are more deaths with Covid in the unvaccinated than in the triple-vaccinated for May 2022:
That seems fairly conclusive – vaccination seems to offer a slight benefit for those aged under 60, with reductions in mortality from an already low risk to even lower. But as always, the devil is in the details.
The ONS doesn’t actually give the full data that it uses to calculate its age-standardised mortality rate, but it does give the number of person-years in each age category with which it used to make its calculation. From a person-years value it is easy to calculate the population that it is using in its dataset (as there are 31 days in May and 365 days in a year). Performing this calculation and adding up all of the vaccinated and unvaccinated, and including all age groups (i.e., everyone over 18) gives us a total of approximately 35 million used in the ONS data for deaths by vaccination status. This understates the population of England significantly – even the official count of the population by the ONS gives an estimate of around 44.5 million aged over 18, while the NIMS estimate of the population aged over 18 is just under 51 million.
This makes me question the validity of the ONS data. If we assume that the problem is only with the population estimate and not the actual deaths count we can calculate an independent estimate of the mortality rate per 100,000 person-years using official estimates of the population of England by age range. The two fairly reasonable estimates of the population of England are from the ONS and NIMS (the immunisation service of the U.K.). The ONS estimate of the population of England is a little suspect because its estimate is, for many age ranges, lower than the population that has actually been vaccinated – so that leaves the NIMS estimate of England’s population.
In earlier posts I discussed how it appears that those closest to death weren’t being vaccinated, making it look as though the unvaccinated had a higher mortality rate when the vaccines were first rolled out, and a similar effect is seen in the data for each successive dose. In order to remove this effect I’ll present data for ‘any dose’ versus unvaccinated, rather than splitting it out by number of doses given.
I’ve done this calculation – it shows that there are higher death rates in the triple-vaccinated compared with the unvaccinated and generally even higher death rates in the single and double vaccinated. We also see even higher death rates in the three weeks after vaccination – this is surprising because earlier data didn’t show such high rates. It is possible that we’re seeing an interaction between vaccination and existing immunity or possibly concurrent asymptomatic infection which wasn’t seen previously.
Here’s the same graph as I presented earlier, but using NIMS population estimates:
Now we see a completely different picture. The vaccines appear to increase the risk of death from Covid for all age ranges other than 70-79.
The ONS data are interesting because they also include data on non-Covid deaths by vaccination status – here are those data, again using the NIMS population estimate:
Using this alternative estimate of the population of England now suggests that the vaccines substantially increase the risk of death for reasons other than Covid.
A particular point of note about the Covid deaths versus non-Covid deaths charts above is the X-axis scale:
- For the deaths with Covid the mortality rate per 100,000 person-years is below 10 for all those aged under 70, and the difference in magnitude of the vaccinated versus unvaccinated is around 3-4 (larger for those aged over 70) – this is a low number and could be considered as being relatively unimportant.
- However, the additional deaths not with Covid in the vaccine group is significant – we see over double the mortality rate for those aged under 50, and a near doubling for those aged 50-70. This level of increase is frighteningly large.
These data aren’t conclusive proof that the vaccines are killing people, but they certainly suggest that something odd is going on. Recently, there have also been reports from the ONS of unusually high deaths since the start of 2022 that can’t be explained by Covid. You’d imagine that this would herald some rigorous scientific research to identify if the vaccines might explain some of the excess deaths, but they’re not even on the list of ‘likely candidates’. Frankly, I find it astounding that the U.K. Government doesn’t really know how many people are in the country, and thus that estimates of the number of unvaccinated vary so greatly. This problem could have been eliminated if we had done proper research into the impact of the vaccines. It was absolutely clear 15 months ago that we needed robust prospective matched-cohort longitudinal studies into the impact of the vaccines – it is even more clear now that not doing these studies was a great mistake that may have cost lives.
But, of course, if the vaccines are to blame then governments worldwide will be very reluctant to explore further, given that it was the same governments that ‘encouraged’ (using psychological techniques to shame and otherwise cajole people into getting vaccinated) vaccination in the first place; it might be considered in their interests to look the other way.

If the “vaccines” were safe and effective as claimed then data worldwide would show a clear general pattern. But it doesn’t. Any benefit is hard to find and it’s as easy to find disbenefits as benefits. That suggests that at best they make little difference, and of course it could be a lot worse…
If you then consider the vaccine injuries and the huge amounts of money and resources diverted away from treating actually sick people with treatments known to work, the whole mass vaxxing enterprise and the associated vaxx passports, coercion etc has to be deeply immoral and probably criminal.
Very good to see some righteous indignation creeping into Amanuensis’s normally objective and dispassionate analysis. Quite right too – we are talking about the greatest pharmaceutical fraud in the history of medicine.
And that’s saying something :-
Pfizer Bextra 2.3 billion.
Merck Vioxx 4.85 billion.
Abbott Labs Depakote 1.5 billion
Johnson &Johnson Respiridone 2.0 billion
GSK Paxil etc. 2.0 billion
Etc, etc.
Not sure if the billions are in dollars or human misery…..
I’m still completely blown away from the lack of awareness from these Twitter cultists though. I totally accept that there may be more to reading these charts and that of course some cherry picking may happen from both sides; but at the very least these anomalies deserve some looking into, no?
Why are the cultists so happy to settle it?
Don’t these same people constantly scream about injustice and how much they care about people? Don’t these people hate Corporate Greed TM and corruption?
Anything showing even the potential for these crimes against humanity would send them into a frothing, protesting horde usually…
It just highlights, to me, how fickle their belief is and how much of it is purely a façade.
Re the last paragraph “using psychological techniques to shame and otherwise cajole people into getting vaccinated”
they are still at it. Articles today in both the DT and the DM announcing the roll out of the fourth dose to over 50s in the Autumn. To ‘ward off a winter crisis’. Almost everyone I know who has been double or triple jabbed has gone on to get Covid. Surely at some point logic will kick in. Surely!
We have to understand Covid has become a faith. Logic and rational thinking serve no purpose in religion; there is no such thing as proof to the cult, there is only belief. It’s an interesting phenomenon because many unvaccinated believe in a God, so what is it that separates the unvaxxed from the vaxxed? I believe it is morals, I think this side of the argument have a much more deep-rooted set of moral beliefs, and will stubbornly stick to them. A fascinating question for me – what trait is it that separates the two camps?
Real knowledge via proper education, perhaps. Unfortunately, many just believe in the propaganda delivered via the usual sources – ‘news’ media, billboard posters etc. I think it is more like a typical election campaign than promoting a particular religion theologically.
Healthy dose of skepticism.

Governments who bullied and coerced “vaccination” with these poorly tested products will close ranks. They wouldn’t dare admit that the products they endorsed and pushed are ineffective at preventing disease/death and are, in fact, dangerous and causing death/disability for many.
This scandal will be swept under the carpet and the guilty men and women will be allowed to get away with it because the alternative for the Global Elite doesn’t bear thinking about.
Another good article exposing he lie is here: https://gellerreport.com/2022/07/uk-government-report-vaccinated-account-for-94-of-all-covid-19-deaths-since-april-90-of-which-were-triple-quadruple-jabbed.html/?lctg=92481090
Think your last paragraph sums it up although they don’t just seem to be looking the other way they are also doubling down on vaccines for children 0-5 and this winter’s “save our NHS” boosters for the over 50s. God help us.
So the ONS ‘manages’ the data. That’s news like bears defaecating in arborial settings
