Re: Which source

https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/how-to-compare-covid-deaths-for-vaccinated-and-unvaccinated-people/

The first link in Comment #86. Scroll down to the first chart. The population sample number is on the header.

Re: It isn't zero.

Healthy adults under age 60 have the same mortality rate for Covid as they have for influenza - a small fraction of 1%.

If the CDC counted influenza deaths exactly the same way it counts Covid deaths, healthy adults under age 60 would have a higher mortality risk from influenza than from Covid.

Instead, the CDC counts 90% of influenza + pneumonia deaths as pneumonia deaths.

The CDC counts 100% of Covid + pneumonia deaths as Covid deaths.

I need to walk to Safeway before the sun goes down - I will respond to the rest of your comments when I get back.

But Covid has proven to be much more infectious.

Again, so what? If a vaccine reduces deaths by a large percentage it’s valuable.

I’m not going to argue over whether or not Covid is exaggerated as a problem - it’s a moot point.

I’m saying the vaccines are proven to reduce death and hospitalization and no one has shown evidence that they cause the same.
