Charlie Kirk speculates that between 123,000 and 1.2 million people could've died after getting the COVID-19 vaccine: "I'm not saying that's true, I'm saying that according to how we calculate VAERS...this could be true"
This great piece from @NikkiMcR debunks this ridiculous and dangerous line of thought:
Tucker Carlson claimed dozens of people a day are dying of COVID-19 vaccine. Its a blatant lie.

(9,895 posts)I just cannot believe they are both ludicrously wealthy and getting more so but blatantly lying to their flocks and actively placing human lives in peril.
I will simply say that I wish for universal karma to visit them both and put them into unspeakable agony.

I'm not advocating violence, mind you. And I'd never hit anyone unless threatened physically first.
Just speculating.

Some little dip reported on the VAER numbers. Now hes showing one of the doctors on CNN (forget her name) saying how easy it is to get vaccinated and how much of a pain it is to not get vaccinated. Tucker says this is her demeaning non-vaxxed. She want. Charlie Kirk is on talking about an email he got by mistake from CNN. CNN is now administering medicine according to this dimwit.

(10,199 posts)is all self-reporting. So you could log that you got a hangnail from the vaccine.
No. Some adverse events might be caused by vaccination and others might be coincidental and not related to vaccination. Just because an adverse event happened after a person received a vaccine does not mean the vaccine caused the adverse event.
VAERS accepts reports of adverse events following vaccination without judging the cause or seriousness of the event. VAERS is not designed to determine if a vaccine caused an adverse event, but it is good at detecting unusual or unexpected patterns of reporting that might indicate possible safety problems that need a closer look.
