Omicron covid for young people (under 50) has similar stats iirc
- elif 3y agoThe covid vaccine has not been linked to any deaths under 50, and has been administered far more than 17K times.
- t0bia_s 3y agoYou should inform yourself more, because your statement is false. There are plenty studies monitoring covid vaccine injuries and deaths among youth. Numbers are high.
- heliostatic 3y agoFeel free to cite studies supporting your claims (genuinely, not sarcasm, but making positive claims about factual matters can and should be supported by evidence).
- t0bia_s 3y agoI did it multiple times here. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35094410 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35094410
- kabouseng 3y agoI think it is only fair, that since T0bia did list his studies, that elif also be asked to list his studies that zero deaths are linked to covid vaccinations...
- t0bia_s 3y agoIt is simply not possible to have study about zero death from covid vaccines. Multiple user here has personal experience with death/injuries from covid vaccinations. Those studies I posted would be lies. And it's just a fragment. Somehow not covered by mass media. Probably because that would be open admission of complicity in the dissemination of false safety information about vaccines in recent years. Trust is fragile and loose when anecdotal evidence is differnet with official agenda.
- thephyber 3y ago> Somehow not covered by mass media. > Trust is fragile You already answered your own question. After the 2016 election, I became super interested in epistemology and how we learn things (including effects of trust and influence). In practice, we know almost nothing from first principles and we “know” almost everything because we heard/read it from sources we trust. The difficulty with COVID is that people who either trust or distrust the vaccines have strong priors and discussions like this thread don’t spend the time to understand each others priors, hence the reasons they trust different sources. Example: a pro-vaccine arguer probably understands that VAERS entries are not necessarily vetted, may represent post hoc ergo promoter hoc fallacies, and should be taken with a grain of salt. An arguer on the other side may assume that all VAERS entries represent a floor (perhaps many other side effects were somehow prevented from being reported). The truth is most likely somewhere in between the positions of the two arguers. > Trust is fragile and loose when anecdotal evidence is differnet with official agenda. Trust has little bearing on the objective truth. Most people trust other people who haven’t proven to be trustworthy. Your statement could be about fraud in the 2020 election. Despite low trust in the election (initially among Republicans, but that distrust has spread to independents and Democrats), no election fraud claims have withstood scrutiny. Repeatedly stating distrust has created more distrust, despite no more evidence that we should distrust it (since early 2021).
- t0bia_s 3y agoTrust in mass media has historic low. Covid agenda is one reason. No wonder that sensation and tabloidisation of news is new normal. They desperately trying to keep business run. However it makes news agenda almost irrelevant. https://fortune.com/2023/02/15/trust-in-media-low-misinform-mislead-biased-republicans-democrats-poll-gallup/ https://fortune.com/2023/02/15/trust-in-media-low-misinform-... https://axios.com/media-trust-crisis-2bf0ec1c-00c0-4901-9069-e26b21c283a9.html https://axios.com/media-trust-crisis-2bf0ec1c-00c0-4901-9069...
- thephyber 3y ago(1) One of my points is that trust is perception, not reality. I don’t care that people are increasingly distrustful of “media” because that term is both polymorphic and loaded. We currently have some of the best media available in the history of the world. Just because many other outlets are low quality or conflate facts with opinion doesn’t disprove my previous sentence. (2) The more you use the word “agenda”, the more you sound like you have political motives as opposed to curious + minimally biased. If your goal is to spread factual information, use the language of facts. If it is to be political, then continue using the language of politics / those who spread conspiranoia.
- elif 3y agoIn the 15-24 age group VAERS reports 14 deaths. That is not cause by vaccine, but deaths in the months following vaccination, including suicides and infections. These death totals do not substantially pass the baseline for expected deaths in that population. In none of these cases has spike protein been observed on heart tissue, which is the potential vector for vaccine induced myocarditis and can be performed visually under standard microscopy.

- 6nf 3y agoAre you kidding? No deaths from the covid vaccine in under 50s in the USA? That’s not the case here in Australia.
