The estimated total of excess non-respiratory deaths since March 2020 now stands at over 100,000, most of which have occurred since the vaccine rollout. This rise in core mortality is unprecedented in recent history.
Focusing on 'core' mortality from non-respiratory causes removes most of the variation from year to year and reveals a truly alarming trend beginning around the time the vaccines were rolled out in 2021.
Non-respiratory mortality varies little from year to year, changing by just 1.3% in the six years from 2015-2020. However, 2021 has registered a 3.7% increase and 2022 is projected to show a catastrophic 10% increase.
There have been 16,200 more non-Covid deaths than expected since the spring vaccine booster rollout began, mostly in the over-75s. If all of them were due to vaccine injury it would be a rate of one every 275 doses.
Many countries are reporting a marked drop in birth rates in the first part of 2022, nine months after the vaccination rollouts to younger age groups. Is there a link?
Once you take into account that non-Covid excess mortality is skewed heavily towards the old, the estimate of vaccine mortality in the over-75s exceeds one in 1,000 doses or 0.1%. Fourth doses are bearing this out.
A comparison of non-Covid excess mortality rates in Denmark and the U.K. finds that they closely resemble each other at approximately 250 per million doses, i.e., a fatality rate of 0.025% or one every 4,000 doses.
The UK has used just 142 million of the stockpile of 650 million vaccine doses it purchased, leaving an estimated £4 billion worth of vaccines unused and, at current levels of take-up, likely going to waste.
Take out the noise from the mortality data for England and Wales and what you find are 23,000 additional deaths since the vaccine rollout began that urgently need to be explained.
