Basically the point is without modern treatments there would be a higher mortality rate.

Or do many treatments just shift the mortality to a different cause?

Just a reminder Chucky real science is objectively measureable, demonstrable and repeatable. Your cult of $cientism is based entirely on psuedoscience.

Certainly but the mortalities previously prevented far outweigh later mortalities. Genetic mutations are a double edged sword. For example, the genetic mutation which allowed people to survive the plague has been linked to rise of autoimmune disorders. Fair hair and skin colour for lower sunlight locales makes one prone to skin cancer. The genetic ability of hunter gatherers to sustain on no food for literal weeks makes them prone to type 2 diabetes and resulting cardiovascular disease with a modern high carb ultra processed diet. Kinda delves away from vaccines but shows other factors at play here.

Let us not forget the simple. For context.
In the last 40 years the definition and diagnosis of autism has been greatly refined and expanded. Leading to far greater numbers falling within the scope. Today, I would have been able to fit within the spectrum in primary school.
Thinking also, most laymen not trained to understand the complex spectrum.
While we're debating the numeracy of the vaccine risk, we shouldn't forget the same regarding preventable disease.
When any one of them should strike our family, we must look to the mirror for responsibility.

Essentially, a 1 or 2 in 100,000 chance (if proven)
Or a 25% chance if directly infected. (polio, serious side effects) No treatment available.
Perhaps it might be said we could always strive for better tools, but no one can argue those numbers.

US Pentagon failed 7 th audit. It seems $ 824 Billion is unaccounted for. Can you hear the jail doors clanking?

I thought I heard the sound of paper shredders going in overtime.

Last time $2 trillion went unaccounted for at the Pentagon a few days later the world's trade centre towers became the first skysc****rs to ever implode from a fire.

Absolutely correct BL

will be no surprise if something major happens between now and Trumps inauguration

sure their has been great progress made in disease control and prevention , but its very hard to trust everything without question , example below ,its a billions of dollars industry , lots of drugs have been silently withdrawn after years being pumped into people they discovered the risks outweighed the benefits , their is also lists of such drugs on internet , not sure what answer is , i guess some blindly trust , others ask questions

Or, the growing lack of trust in the known / fear of unknown.
Has skewed our risk/reward analysis functioning.

[littledoggie]

The US has an obesity epidemic. Could that have played into excess Covid deaths? How can there be an argument against MAHA? The key will be to use a carrot instead of a stick.

..growing lack of trust in institutions has us recalibrating our assumptions
