They were not required to provide all cause mortality data to the FDA, so they didn't but the data existed and there was a statistically non-significant *excess* mortality in the vaccine group. This became more widely known only after a Danish epidemiologist requested the all cause mortality data and published a comparison of the J&J vaccine (which reduced all cause mortality) and the Pfizer vaccine, which didn't. </div><div><br></div><div>Of course, there is absolutely no data on long-term mortality from a blinded study because no long-term blinded studies are done. Presumably, long term it doesn't matter, since the mRNA eventually degrades, after a couple of months, the poisonous spike protein is cleared and you are OK, and everybody gets Covid and develops natural immunity anyway. It's the short term that matters.</div><div><br></div><div>Rafal</div></div></div>
