the previous post was from insurance analysis studies
this study is from
"Western Norway University of Applied Sciences"
Excess deaths, correlation study
"We primarily study a possible link between 2021 COVID-19 vaccination uptake in Europe, and monthly 2022 excess all-cause mortality, (i.e., mortality higher than before the pandemic)
Analyses of 31 countries, Jan to September, 2022 31 EU member states, plus Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Switzerland
All-cause mortality, increased more the higher the 2021 vaccination uptake Countries with more covid vaccines in 2021 had higher excess mortality in first 9 months of 2022
Positive correlation between vaccination in 2021 and excess deaths in 2022
A one percentage point increase in 2021 vaccination uptake, was associated with a monthly mortality increase in 2022 by 0.105% (95% CI, 0.075-0.134).
When controlling for alternative explanations...."
to me it seems that the correlation here is hard to explain away ("a slam dunk").
But the percentage, at 1st glance, seems thankfully small.
But if I'm understanding the numbers the study says for each 1% rise in vxcine there's a 0.1x% in mortality.
But that's not small for a "safe" drug.
