Unfortunately, with vaccines, they don't bother, and don't want, to see it: "No pivotal clinical trial for a vaccine preventing an infectious disease" including for these Covid vaccines, has used the all-cause mortality and morbidity standard. Instead, "Manufactures and government agents" have used infection rates with a specific infectious agent as misleading surrogate endpoints, assuming they equate to a net health benefit.

Classen's analysis of the Pfizer, Moderna, and Janssen vaccine trials, with 110,000 people followed for a maximum of 81 days, shows that, while the vaccinated group had fewer severe Covid cases (22-117) and fewer deaths (7- 23, six of which were confirmed as having Covid) than the control group, the vaccinated had many (3396) more severe adverse events (4842-1446).

In a later six-month trial, Pfizer reported 20 deaths from the vaccinated group and 14 from the placebo group, "none of which were considered related to [the vaccine] by investigators." Their hard-to-find and somewhat confusing Supplementary Data table also shows more total adverse events (6617 vs. 3048) and more in all the categories of severe or life-threatening adverse events (375 vs. 277) in the vaccine group.

For Classen, this data indicates that "none of the vaccines provide a health benefit, and all pivotal trials show a statically significant increase in all cause severe morbidity in the vaccinated group compared to the placebo group" and that "it is all but a certainty that mass COVID-19 immunization is hurting the health of the population in general."

Of course, we need more data and more time to assess the true effect. All this data does is demonstrate, based on the drug companies' own trials, that there is no strong evidence that the vaccines reduce, and some evidence that they worsen, all-cause mortality and morbidity.

That's all it has to do, because the burden of proof is on those trying to force everyone to take the vaccines to show that they are not going to diminish public health--will not increase all-cause mortality and morbidity--whatever their effects on Covid. It's on those who advocate a pass-law segregation regime to prove, or at a minimum provide overwhelming evidence, that it is necessary and will be at least net harmless to public health as a whole. The fact that it's built around a vaccine, no matter how effective it may be against the target disease, is not in itself such proof--although a lot of people, including leftists, have come to adopt that illogical and unscientific assumption.

Though we don't have enough excess all-cause mortality data since vaccination was initiated, we do have enough comparative data for the past 20 months, with a country that we haven't heard much of recently, to make anyone actually motivated by data to think twice about how necessary repressive mandates and social policies are:

And I'm sure someone can figure out a way to blame this on "the unvaccinated":

With nearly the entire vulnerable population vaccinated in the UK, you would expect most of the reported deaths to come from the vaccinated population.

What you might not expect is that total Covid deaths are up nearly 1000% compared to the same period last year. pic.twitter.com/RWgu8qqKcc
