I found one British news website reporting this paper.
It explains the results in plain English for the non-scientist reader.

Quotes:
A bombshell new study by a distinguished team of Danish researchers
led by Prof. Christine Stabell-Benn suggests a surprisingly nuanced
answer. In the randomized trials of the covid vaccines, the
adenovector-based vaccines, including the AstraZeneca and Johnson &
Johnson vaccines, reduced all-cause mortality of study participants
relative to people randomly assigned a placebo. Indeed, the reduction
in mortality is larger than expected from the Covid effect and may
suggest additional beneficial “non-specific effects” from those
vaccines against other health threats.

On the other hand, Stabell-Benn and her colleagues found no
statistically meaningful evidence in the trial data that the mRNA
vaccines reduced all-cause mortality. The numbers of deaths from other
causes including cardiovascular deaths appear to be increased in this
group, compensating for the beneficial effect of the vaccines on
Covid.
------------

Other sites are also starting to query the all-cause mortality statistics.
The problem is that these effects take a long time to become evident.
By which time it may be too late.
