As regular readers know, association isn't causation. But when an association is strong enough, causation is likely. The CDC has a system called VAERS (Vaccine Adverse Event Report System) to "detect possible safety problems in U.S.-licensed vaccines." Anyone can report an adverse event (a medical problem following a vaccine), and health care professionals are required to do so. People reporting don't have to prove the vaccine caused the reaction, and some reactions might be just a coincidence. But one new set of vaccines accounting for over half of all deaths reported since 1990 to VAERS is a very big coincidence. Click to enlarge tables.
Deaths per vaccine reported to VAERS since 1990 (top 11 vaccines on list). |
Permanent disability events per vaccine reported to VAERS since 1990 (top 12 vaccines on list). |
Likewise, the chart above shows permanent disability events reported to VAERS over the past 30 years. COVID vaccines have soared to the top of the list in less than a year.
So-called "fact checkers" observe that anyone can make a report to VAERS and that the reported events were not necessarily caused be the vaccines. Correct as far as it goes--but that's also true for all the other vaccines on the list. And since VAERS isn't well-known but health care professionals are required to report certain adverse events to the system, they probably make the vast majority of reports.
That's the extent of the explanation I've read for the explosion in reported death and permanent disability events. I thought I might see reports of bots or activist groups making false reports, but curiously, all I see in the news and on the CDC's web site is how safe the vaccines are--and how VAERS is supposed to work as an early warning system. If these levels aren't warnings, I don't know what is.
