Original Note:
The "deaths reported on the CDC website" are from the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS). Because anyone can submit reports, the raw data are considered unverified until vetted: https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-vaers-deaths/fact-check-vaers-reported-vaccine-deaths-have-not-been-confirmed-or-deemed-causal-by-cdc-idUSL1N2MZ2H8 The CDC has found no causal link between these incidents and the COVID-19 vaccines: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/safety/adverse-events.html
