That’s not proof. You can’t prove someone MIGHT die because of something. Just as I can’t prove that by just taking vitamins or exercising might save or extend my life. I won’t make either claim. Your claim is not provable. I took a class in statistics many years ago, and one book we had to read was How to Lie with Statistics. The title says it all. That’s why when I see stats or someone uses stats, I take it with a grain of salt. You have to look at the motivation behind what they are trying to sell you.

It’s certainly true that one should look at motivations. All the anti-vaxxer claims are motivated by attempts to justify their belief in the anti-vaxxer narrative. Since you’re such an expert in statistics, you should admit that while statistics cannot prove a specific individual was saved by the vaccines, the statistics can demonstrate that millions were saved.
