The statement

“High vax regions are showing ~15% higher 2022 mortality than 2021.

The more doses … you have in a [US] region … the bigger increase in mortality …

If you’re over the age of 50, and you took all 5 doses, that’d be a 35% increase.”

My take on it

Replication is part of scientific method: you test to see if it is true in one place; and then you test to see if it is true in other places – and/or at other times.

An earlier post reported on the same 15% number for Australia. Now it is replicated in the US.

Which suggests that it is generally true.

Now what?
