Original Note:
The charts are showing only mortality rates, while the direct effect of the vaccines is on disease spread/incidence. Mortality rates decreased even before vaccines because of better hospital care (but they decreased even after vaccines). https://vaccination-info.europa.eu/en/about-vaccines/how-vaccines-work#:~:text=Vaccines%20work%20by%20teaching%20the%20immune%20system%20how%20to%20fight%20off%20a%20disease%20in%20case%20it%20ever%20comes%20into%20contact%20with%20it.%20This%20greatly%20reduces%20the%20risk%20of%20becoming%20seriously%20ill%20or%20spreading%20a%20disease%20to%20others
