Columbia study: True U.S. COVID vaccine death count is 400,000 Other estimates of underreporting on CDC's VAERS site much higher

The CDC's latest count of deaths attributed to COVID-19 vaccines is nearly 20,000, but a study by researchers at Columbia University estimates the actual number is 20 times higher.

The Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System, or VAERS, reports 19,886 deaths, 102,857 hospitalizations and a total of 946,461 adverse events due to COVID-19 vaccines through Dec. 3.

If the Columbia study's underreporting factor is correct, it would mean that there are nearly 400,000 deaths due to COVID-19 vaccines.

In the study's abstract, the researchers note that "accurate estimates of COVID vaccine-induced severe adverse event and death rates are critical for risk-benefit ratio analyses of vaccination and boosters against SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus in different age groups."

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services points out that a VAERS report is not documentation that a link has been established between a vaccine and an adverse event. However, HHS also notes that VAERS is a "passive" system of reporting, and it "receives reports for only a small fraction of actual adverse events." Many health care workers have disclosed they are instructed by their superiors not to report to VAERS any harm caused by COVID vaccines.

"Many health care workers have disclosed they are instructed by their superiors not to report to VAERS any harm caused by COVID vaccines." Weird huh? Almost like "they" don't want the real numbers out there. The more we know, the more we NO!

I’ve seen the math.

For every “life saved” by the vaxx, 45 lives are lost by the vaxx.

I suspect it is far more.

They’ve lied to us every step of the way.

WHY should anyone start believing anything they tell us?

Much like Brandon didn’t get anywhere near 81 million votes, I don’t think we’ve had 400,000 deaths, let alone 800,000, where COVID-19 was the primary cause.

Japan is the only country that is rationally and objectively analyzing COVID realities. The Japanese have carefully evaluated the effectiveness and side effects of the vaccine in various groups and make policy that follows real science and facts and not a political narrative. The FDA and CDC once had similar standards and practices. Today Biden commissars run those untrustworthy Federal agencies. As in Stalin’s Soviet Russia the scientists must adhere to the prevailing political narrative or their findings and them are dismissed.

Get serious folks! That would mean that for every two people who died from Coronavirus, one person was killed by the vaccine. If that were true, we would notice it. It would be obvious.

I had to report my own 3 adverse effects to VAERS. No one did it for me. So, I would bet a dollar that VAERS does underreport. However, I believe that the underreporting is less as you get more serious side effects. More people are aware and more people are likely to report it.

“ Results from fitted regression slopes (p<0.05 FDR corrected) suggest a US national average VFR of 0.04% and higher VFR with age (VFR=0.004% in ages 0-17 increasing to 0.06% in ages >75 years), and 146K to 187K vaccine-associated US deaths between February and August, 2021. ” Follow link in story to abstract.

Depending in the accuracy of the stats, and states aren’t the only things in need of an audit, the vaxxes may end up killing more people than the coof.

Not sure the number of deaths are quite that high, but I can tell ya, vaxx deaths/injuries are NOT being reported in totality.

My wife works for a large healthcare network. Cannot divulge the name nor what my wife's function is, but the adverse reactions being reported are a small fraction of what you see published.

Furthermore, I have five coworkers I work with and have for years have experienced adverse reactions to the so called vaccines.
Coworker 1 - Pfizer x 2 back in April. Developed Bells Palsy. Living now with left side facial seizures. On meds.
Coworker 2 - Pfizer x 2. Told me just this week he was embarrassed to say anything, but pissed blood for two weeks after his jabs.
Coworker 3 - attempted to talk his lady friend out of taking the moderna x 2. She had a cardiac event. She is now deceased.
Coworker 4 - Walking in on a Monday. Asked how his weekend was. He said, “Oh man, had a health scare”. I asked what happened, he said he had a stroke. I asked did he receive the vaccine. He told me he just received the J&J x 1. The doctors did a D-Dimer test on him and found clotting in his chest.
Coworker 5 - His step daughter took the Pfizer x 2 and is now bed ridden and dying. Sudden neurological disorder the doctors are trying to pinpoint.

You can choose to believe it or not. I have way too much evidence in my own personal orbit to shrug it off.

These guys and Kirsch are saying deaths attributed to covid were vaccine deaths. The problem with that argument is countries like Japan who have a high vaccine rate, do not have many covid deaths. In fact Japan in 2020 had an overall reduced all-cause mortality rate. So why is the vaccine not killing Japanese?

We may be nauseating, but we are not uncharitable. If you get COVID Kozak, I volunteer to administer your Remdesiver and hook you up to a ventilator. Merry Christmas!

See if you can find the numbers of those who are fully vaxxed who have nonetheless perished of COVID in the US. You’d think that’s a pretty important metric. But if it’s being recorded anywhere, it’s not being shared publicly.

I have known 2 people who have allegedly died of COVID (although we believe it’s more of a Remdesiver protocol issue). We know of 12 post vaccination deaths.

Re: vaccine death count is 400,000

In the USA, both 2020 and 2021 have about 600,000 more total deaths (from all causes) than 2019.

Before 2020, total USA deaths (from all causes) increased just 35,000 per year on average.

There is certainly enough room in the 2021 raw USA death data to include 400,000 VAERS fatalities.

The number reported by VAERS represents only one to two percent of the actual total.

Now recalculate that number. You’ll find it’s a bit larger than 400K.

the article indicated 400,000 deaths due to COVID-19 vaccines.

Italy adjusted their death count downward.

wonder why we don’t take a 2nd look.
