Information from a very prestigious medical journal about vaccinations.  Here is a review article from a very prestigious medical journal about the current state of the art concerning Covid 19 vaccinations.  For those who have been vaccinated it is a good reference.  For those who are vaccine-hesitant, it gives all sorts of good ammunition to resist enlightenment.

​The link here is mainly for physicians, but it shows ( with a detailed statistical analysis) that vaccinated people die a LOT less.
The Vaccine - Death study.   Click on the link to go to the study.
Of course - as the authors of the study are careful to point out - this does not mean that the vaccine is preventing deaths.  The difference is probably due to the fact that people who chose to get vaccinated are generally more health conscious.  And that is why they die less.
But on the bright side, the study is pretty good evidence that the vaccine is not killing people off !
