Do you happen to have a more verifiable source for your claim that COVID-19 vaccines are more risky than the flu vaccine?

Excerpt from the disclaimer in your source:

> VAERS accepts reports of adverse events and reactions that occur following vaccination. Healthcare providers, vaccine manufacturers, and the public can submit reports to VAERS. While very important in monitoring vaccine safety, VAERS reports alone cannot be used to determine if a vaccine caused or contributed to an adverse event or illness. The reports may contain information that is incomplete, inaccurate, coincidental, or unverifiable. Most reports to VAERS are voluntary, which means they are subject to biases. This creates specific limitations on how the data can be used scientifically. Data from VAERS reports should always be interpreted with these limitations in mind.




Give the incentives no, however it should be noted VAERS is only going to undercount not over count. Physicians are required to fill it out if there’s adverse side effects at the hospital.

Wish there was more but the incentives aren’t really aligned for open research on this.

We can get the real cdc idc10 (billing) results in several months.
