One sources says that 11.1 million shots have been administered. 55 deaths may not be statistically significant. I'll keep an open mind. From a previous post of mine:
I said when the vaccine was first announced that some people taking it would suffer adverse events that may or may not be related to the vaccine, but that lurid stories would appear “linking” those events to the vaccine. The greatest medical advance in the 20th Century was the controlled clinical trial. The vaccines have undergone testing and trials. It is not impossible that some people may actually suffer adverse effects from the vaccine, but like the Salk vaccine or smallpox, I’ll take my chances with the vaccine, since the risk of Covid is more plausible than the remote chance of an adverse reaction to the vaccine.

I doubt that I will change anyone’s mind by posting this.

I wonder how many deaths have occurred among an equivalent group of 11.1 million people who did not get the shot but have still died. You are precisely right.

I remember as an elementary school student marching to the small gym. We all lined up and got our Salk vaccine shots. My dear mother ,until the day she died, thought Jonas Salk should have been Saint..I think she was right !!!

Agreed. I’d like to know the average age of the 55 who have died. Then look at 11.1 million at that average age who didn’t get the vaccine & see how many died in similar fashion. Keep in mind, those getting the vaccine are, for the most part, probably not in as good of health as the average person.

Last week, I got the vaccine for the "regular" flu. I couldn't use my "injected" arm for three days; still, I'm looking forward to the Wuhan vaccination. The following week, I get the "Shingrex" vaccination for Shingles.

I’ll take my chances with the vaccine, since the risk of Wuhan flu is more plausible than the remote chance of an adverse reaction to the vaccine.

Information from people who contracted the Wuhan flu reported their brains got messed up.
