New German data reveals, that more work days were missed due to vaccine side effects than due to COVID-19:
1) Vaccine Side Effects: 383k days
2) COVID-19: 374k days
(via Tom Lausen, Anhörung Deutscher Bundestag)

Vaccination uptake in Vermont started week 6/2021, excess mortality started rising in week 25/2021, from completely normal levels before that. That is 19 weeks later or about ~5 months later.

With German Age-Adjusted All-Cause Mortality data we can clearly see the "label effect" of COVID-19. Germany has no age-adjusted excess mortality!

Here's something that baffles my mind:
> How can Germany have 1,336/M COVID-19 deaths with basically no age-adjusted excess mortality.
> While the US is seeing MORE age-adjusted-excess mortality than COVID-19 deaths?!

JUST IN: "New York, New Jersey and California failed in their handling of the COVID-19 pandemic because of stringent lockdowns and policies, while Florida was among the best-performing states in the country, a new study has found."

So if we know 'only unvaccinated' leads to the outcomes on the left, while 'vaccinated & unvaccinated' lead to the outcome on the right.

So what's the cause?

New (pre-print) study in The Lancet confirms:
Neither of the mRNA vaccines had *any* effect whatsoever on all-cause mortality risk, compared to placebo.

There was a trend towards fewer deaths from COVID, but this was counterbalanced by a roughly similarly-sized trend for increased risk of death from cardiovascular causes.
Overall the mRNA vaccines increased the risk of dying from any cause slightly. (RR: 1.03)

I have plotted all-cause excess deaths in seniors (65+) vs. COVID-19 vaccinations.
> Even extremely high (95%+) vaccination levels did not bring down the extreme excess mortality levels in the US.
> Current lower levels are likely seasonal, still to be seen what will happen in the next few months.

JUST IN: New study shows that Sweden's life expectancy rose by +0.2% from 2019 to 2021, while the other countries saw a -0.4% decline!
> In contrast, Sweden had no lockdowns and only mild restrictions.
> Peer Average: 81.86/82.15-1 = -0.4%
> Sweden: 83.22/83.06-1 = +0.2%
