Original Note:
It is false to claim that deaths would have been lower without COVID vaccines. There is strong evidence COVID vaccines were highly effective in preventing COVID deaths: https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/birthsdeathsandmarriages/deaths/bulletins/covid19vaccineeffectivenessestimatedusingcensus2021variablesengland/31march2021to20march2022#vaccine-effectiveness-against-covid-19-hospitalisation-and-mortality And analysis of 15 million vaccine recipients found cardiac problems following vaccination were rare: https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(22)00791-7/fulltext
