"Fourteen v-safe registrants aged 5–11 years were reported to have been hospitalized after vaccination."

So somebody did report all 14. Since one wasn't really hospitalized it was overreported by 1/13 = 8%.

"V-safe does not directly record diagnoses associated with hospitalization; however, parents and guardians can include supplemental text for each health checkin. Whether hospitalization was the result of vaccination could not be determined; however, all parents and guardians who reported a child’s hospitalization were contacted and encouraged to complete a VAERS report. Two parents completed a VAERS report on behalf of a child who was reported to v-safe to have been hospitalized."

So it's not that only 2 out of 13 were reported. It's that only 2 out of 13 had parents or guardians who filed supplementary information.

Also the following should be considered when considering things like Steve Kirsch's extrapolation from allergic reactions to deaths.

"The findings in this report are subject to at least four limitations. First, VAERS is a passive surveillance reporting system and is subject to reporting biases and underreporting, especially of nonserious events (8).

I'm not claiming Vaers is perfect. But extraordinary claims need extraordinary proof, not some back of the envelope wag by someone who doesn't understand the number or who has an agenda.

“Also the following should be considered when considering things like Steve Kirsch’s extrapolation from allergic reactions to death” DannyTN you are much more polite about this than I am, I am truly sick of Ransomnote and Steve Krisch and his bellyaching nonsense.

From the report cited by Steve Kirsch -
“Approximately 8.7 million doses of Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine were administered to children aged 5–11 years† during this period; VAERS received 4,249 reports of adverse events after vaccination with Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine in this age group, 4,149 (97.6%) of which were not serious. “
So there were 100 reports of serious adverse events AFTER 8.7 MILLION DOSES!!! Not deaths mind you, just “adverse events”. I’m not sure what demented planet Steve Kirsch is on but PUH-LEASE everything he says is complete crap.
