Seems like a bit of clever data manipulation by a member of HART to me.
Strange how it initially talks about total mortality but the graph shows non COVID so I wonder if he has stripped COVID deaths out of the figures.

What reason would these professors have to be manipulating data? It would ruin them academically. This is bob from down the road.

I would ask him to justify why he thinks his method of analysing ALL deaths is a better way to assess vaccine efficacy (which has a very specific meaning and only refers to results from clinical trials) and vaccine effectiveness (which I think is what he actually means) than the methods used by every other scientist that only look at data from deaths from the disease in question.

Although as a PP said, his graphs say "non-COVID" deaths not "all cause deaths" like he says. WTF are you going to learn about COVID vaccine effectiveness from looking at deaths from anything other than COVID?!!

I would also like to know why he thinks it is a "misclassification" to not include people who have been vaccinated less than 14 days before their death in the vaccinated category. It is just as much of a misclassification to include them as vaccinated if they died before the vaccine had taken effect.
