Before, initial reporting showed much higher percents because we massively underestimated how many people got sick but were asymptomatic or had so little symptoms they barely noticed.


Yes but I’m wondering if in addition to that did the vaccination have a massive effect on the those numbers.


It had a near 0 or a small rounding from zero effect on overall mortality. Covid rarely, even with co-morbidities, killed people.

Vaccinated people had a significantly lower chance of death but the overall death rate was so tiny it basically doesn't move the needle.


I feel like you’re just opining. Do you know this for a fact/have any sources?
