I agree the shots are garbage. But analysis need to be kept transparent to avoid misrepresenting data which pharma and the regulators are guilty of.

The demographics of the vaccinated and unvaccinated are not the same - the unvaccinated are younger. The UK has about 68 million people, 30% of that is 20.2 million. If this unvaccinated group had a normal distribution reflective of the whole population it would expect about 8 deaths per 1000 population per year barring any disasters or vaccines. Over two years normal mortality would be about 325,000 deaths. If the unvaccinated 30% of the population only experienced 61,000 deaths, that would be a mortality rate of 1.5 per 1000 population or about 5x below normal morality. A mortality rate of 1.5 / 1000 is the normal mortality rate for the 40-49 year old demographic.

For any of these mortality comparisons to be definitive they have to compare each age cohort vaccinated against unvaccinated per 1000 population.

Let’s keep it real, the true story about the mRNA shots is bad enough, we don’t need to lose credibility misrepresenting the data.

But wait, any minute now. I can see a MORON "scientist" responding with:

"Did these numbers include an evaluation of OTHER variables such as race, income, gender, etc.?"

You see, the trendy thing to do these days, is to argue that UNLESS you "granulated" or "stratified" into a thousands different subsets, to "account for" all OTHER possible variables, (BESIDES vaccination status) then all other possible variables somehow became "confounding variables."

I'm actually engaged in this particular argument with a FREAK who says that a variable is always equivalent to a "confounding variable." He's SERIOUSLY trying to say that all variables ALWAYS confound the variable of interest being examined.

The worst morons on the planet are often PhDs. They've often lost all ability to reason.
