This paper now comes to us fully peer reviewed and published in the BMJ (British Medical Journal) entitled ‘Excess mortality across countries in the Western World since the Covid-19 pandemic: ‘Our World in Data’ estimates of January 2020 to December 2022.
They firstly acknowledge that excess deaths have been substantial.
Secondly that these deaths are not only related to Covid-19 but to the health strategies adopted.
They also acknowledge that suspected adverse events have been documented following the Covid-19 vaccine.
Method
Karlinsky and Kobak (2021). Using Our World In Data database. Excess mortality, deviation between the reported number of deaths in a country and the expected number for that period under normal circumstances.
This model uses historical death data in a country from 2015 until 2019 and accounts for seasonal variation and year-to-year trends in mortality.
Results
1 Jan 2020-31 Dec 2022
Excess deaths across 47 countries was 3,098,456 (or nearly 3.1 million)
Excess deaths across 41 countries (87%) in 2020
Excess deaths across 42 countries (89%) in 2021
Excess deaths across 43 countries (91%) in 2022
In 2020 there were 1,033,122 excess deaths (P-score 11.4%)
In 2021 there were 1,256,942 excess deaths (P-score 13.8%)
In 2022 there were 808,392 excess deaths (P-score 8.8%)
Conclusions
Excess mortality has remained high for three consecutive years, despite the implementation of containment measures and Covid-19 vaccines. Government leaders and policy makers need to thoroughly investigate underlying causes of persistent excess mortality.
In addition, previous research confirmed profound under reporting of adverse events, including death, after the vaccination. Consensus is lacking in the medical community regarding concerns the mRNA vaccines might cause more harm than initially forecast.
French studies suggest that Covid-19 mRNA vaccines are gene therapy products requiring long-term stringent adverse monitoring. Although the desired immunisation through vaccination occurs in immune cells, some studies report a broad biodistribution and persistence of mRNA in many organs for weeks.
Batch-dependent heterogeneity in the toxicity of mRNA vaccines was found in Denmark.
Simultaneous onset of excess mortality and Covid-19 vaccination in Germany provides a safety signal warranting further investigation.
Despite these concerns, clinical trial data required to further investigate these associations are not shared with the public.
Autopsies to confirm actual death causes are seldom done.
Governments may be unable to release their death data with detailed stratification by cause, although this information could help indicate whether COVID-19 infection, indirect effects of containment measures, COVID-19 vaccines or other overlooked factors play an underpinning role.
Development
An expression of concern has been raised in regard to this paper regarding the quality and messaging. It has been claimed the work implies a direct causal link between Covid-19 vaccination and mortality. The integrity team at the BMJ and The Princess Maxima Centre are investigating.
Heaven forbid scientists dare imply the vaccination maybe wasn’t the complete life saver it was made out to be! And who is concerned? Would it be big pharma by any chance?
