I wonder if there's research comparing Covid-19 deaths versus BCG Tuberculosis vaccination: 1. Between countries. E.g. Russia (mandatory vaccination) versus Western Europe (canceled some years ago). 2. Between territories. West Germany

Total number of confirmed infections is a misleading metric. Criteria for testing constantly changes everywhere. Test kits become more (or less) available. Hospital resources are allocated differently based on changing situation, etc. Two r
