The exact same cause/effect argument could be used for covid itself, with the CDC reported fact that 94% of “covid” deaths were covid + an average of 2.6 comorbidities. Just because those 96% had covid when they died doesn’t mean they died from covid. 160K die every year from “chronic lower respiratory diseases” every year, well, except for 2020!
True, but while the mortality numbers for COVID are inflated, there are undeniably people dying from it. Even if you take an overall survival rate as high as 99.9% for COVID and you assume all deaths occurring in the vaccinated population are actually caused by the vaccine, being vaccinated works out to be about five times safer than not being vaccinated. The survival rate for the virus may be high, but the survival rate of being vaccinated is significantly higher.
