Are you already aware that the VAERS website specifically states: “it is important to note that for any reported event, no cause-and-effect relationship has been established” and “The report of an adverse event to VAERS is not documentation that a vaccine caused the event.”?

Correlation is not causation. I know the principle. The event has been reported, but has not been submitted to an autopsy to establish the cause of death. Autopsies are expensive and can't undo the fact of death. Getting any satisfaction requires going to Vaccine Court and spending a ton of money. Most people won't do it, so the bodies keep piling up with no accountability.

Correlation is not causation but it IS correlation.

Treat the data as if it correlates, because it DOES.

"The event has been reported, but has not been submitted to an autopsy to establish the cause of death."

If I get a vaccine and three days later I fall off a roof and die, it gets automatically reported into VAERS by law. Healthcare providers are required to report adverse events that they're aware of after a vaccine is given. Did the vaccine cause me to fall off a roof? Probably not, but it'll be investigated just as it ought to be.

"Getting any satisfaction requires going to Vaccine Court and spending a ton of money."

The National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program requires no medical proof that a vaccine caused injury or death. All it requires is that you provide a plausible explanation for how the vaccine could have caused it. As long as you have some reasonable explanation, you get paid. How much? On average, it's six-figures. With zero proof required. People aren't avoiding the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program because it's so difficult; they just aren't being injured nearly as often as the anti-vaccine activists claim. There's about one payout per 1 million vaccinations. And since they don't require any proof to pay out six-figures, that number is probably wildly over-inflated.
