This sounds unbelievable - could it be true? I am not qualified to analyze these claims. What does HN say?

- detaro 5y agoA comment I wrote earlier: "3 authors that are not from the field (a psychologist studying/teaching various esoteric topics, a radiation physicist and an "independent data scientist" I can't find much about) weirdly mixing cherry-picked data to come to a conclusion that means that a 5-digit number of people have already died from covid vaccines. E.g. they calculate some estimation of how many people need to be vaccinated to prevent 1 death based on data for not-fully-vaccinated people, and then take events reported in side-effect databases (which by design collect as many reports as possible, without establishing a causal link between treatment and side-effect), cherry-picked for the country with the largest number of reports, as "deaths caused by vaccine" and extrapolate that." Afterwards I found thread from an epidemiologist https://twitter.com/GidMK/status/1409293078817427457 https://twitter.com/GidMK/status/1409293078817427457 with more detailed critique Two members of the journals editorial board have severed their ties over the decision to publish this: https://twitter.com/florian_krammer/status/1408762002512789509 https://twitter.com/florian_krammer/status/14087620025127895... https://twitter.com/ProfKatieEwer/status/1409125241142513670 https://twitter.com/ProfKatieEwer/status/1409125241142513670
