VAERS is based on time proximity, not medical analysis. It includes all adverse events that occur within the specified time period after receiving a vaccine.
To show how that is insufficient on it’s own to make a judgment, I’ll use hypothetical numbers.
Imagine you have 100 people eligible for a vaccine. 50 of them take the vaccine, and 3 die. SO it sounds really bad.
But, what if I told you that on average, in the target population, 2 people die each day. So, in a population of 50, you’d expect 1 death a day. So if you randomly chose a day, you’d expect that within 2 days, 2 people would be dead.
But in your study, you found 3 people died after the “random day” in which you took the vaccine. so we are 1 higher than average.
Well, in fact, if you go back to real-life, and you look at the death rate for the target population of Gardasil, and look at the actual number of deaths, you find that there is no statistical increase.
And in 29 cases of death that were actually studied to see the medical reason for death, NONE were found to be related to the vaccine.
Are you saying if someone gets the vaccine, steps out of their doctor’s office and gets creamed by a bus walking home, it’s being counted as vaccine related? That’s...nuts.
