Vaccination Related Risks of COVID19 Vs. Flu

These set of figures compare the COVID19 vaccine to the traditional Flu vaccines.  ‘Risk of Death’ percentages depend on the ‘# of Vaccinations’ data, which is only approximate, and was pulled from the CDC’s report on Flu vaccination coverage for the 2019-2020 season, and from Our World in Data for the COVID19 vaccinations.

  1. Hi Wayne,
    This is a great website and very informative. I was hoping to find a site or someone that could validate my accusations about covid vaers being throttled or at the very least grossly behind in publishing reports to the public domain? I have been saying when the AE’s are calibrated to the vaccination date, we can see that the majority (59%) of all reported AE’s are from jabs in February or older (as of data drop 5/28). I was hoping you may consider taking a look yourself and publishing your findings. It is very disingenuous of CDC/FDA/VAERS that the are so far behind at the current time. I’m starting to realize the pattern is intentional and they are simply throttling the data and may never bring the true statistics current.

    Sincerely,
    WelcomeTheEagle88

    1. Hi Alberto,
      Thanks! Yes, I am very interested in validating the idea that the VAERS data is being throttled/backlogged. It has become fairly apparent to me as well, from following the data on a weekly basis, that the data is not being published in its entirety, or that there is some backlog. However, I have not yet examined the data specifically for this idea to be able to come to a firm conclusion. I hope to be able to do this type of analysis soon, along with something else I am very interested in, which is to document how many records are being erased each week from their system.
