People who took the shots die of the flu every year. Tens of thousands of them. [b]They just never post the raw numbers[/b] so people think they are magic.[/quote]

"They?"

What central authority is collecting "the raw numbers" in one place of everyone across the nation, but not publishing them?[/quote]

The CDC collects data on how many people die of flu each year: [url]https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/flu.htm[/url]

The CDC also collects data on how many flu shots are given each year: [url]https://www.cdc.gov/fluvaxview/dashboard/vaccine-doses-distributed.html[/url]

But they have no idea what the overlap in a venn-diagram between these two groups looks like. So for 2023 you have 45,000 deaths and 157 million doses, but how many of those 45,000 deaths had a dose? No one really knows. I'm guessing no one really wants to know either. Makes it easier to push the shots. Because who would take it when it turns out something like 30,000 of those deaths were vaccinated?[/quote]
