Original Note:
Fact-checks note that referred (https://x.com/VigilantFox/status/1953831135588626732) Fraiman et al. used inconsistent metrics—reduced hospitalizations for benefit vs. adverse events for risk. https://science.feedback.org/review/article-by-cardiologist-aseem-malhotra-made-unsupported-claims-about-benefits-risks-covid-19-vaccination They also counted benefit as 2.3/10000 reduced hospitalizations in the Pfizer trial, https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9428332/ while CDC showed 59->2/21900 (see 25p below). https://stacks.cdc.gov/view/cdc/109496/cdc_109496_DS1.pdf#page=25
