“...if we look at the Israeli experience so far,” “Over 500,000 have been vaccinated with two doses.” “These are the real numbers as of today.”

When was “today?” Israel has already fully vaxed 5 million, not 500,000.

This is the email about the Israeli study from a physician that I posted links to:

I’m not sure you saw this but, there was a gigantic study post EUA

https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2101765

It shows that the vaccine has a minimal impact on disease. The studies read like something out of an ad agency touting “90% effectiveness”, etc.

The absolute benefit in risk is far less than 1%

There were 39 deaths DUE TO COVID ONLY in the non vaccinated group and 20 deaths due to COVID in the vaccinated group.

I had to go to the study appendix to get this information, it was buried there where one had to dig to get it.

The deaths number is on page 27

They didn’t put this information right into the study because the tiny numbers are so shocking.

For example the number of deaths FROM COVID ONLY in the vaccinated group was 0.0003% and the number of deaths in the unvaccinated group was 0.0006%

The overall reduction in risk for COVID ONLY DEATH was 0.0003%

Put another way, 29,800 people needed to be vaccinated to prevent one death from COVID during the study period. There were 596,000 people in each group.

What I am mainly emailing you about —

This study did not reveal the absolute mortality figures in each group, i.e. death from all causes. THEY ONLY COUNTED DEATHS “FROM COVID”

They had this data, but DID NOT PUBLISH IT. If this data was favorable, they WOULD have published it.

This fact means that it is almost certain that more people died of all causes in the vaccinated group.

Accepting the vaccine almost certainly increased the risk of death.

I see your understanding of how to read death certificates is surpassed only by your understanding of statistics and medical literature
