Maryland says 100 percent of COVID-19 deaths last month were among unvaccinated https://thehill.com/policy/healthcare/561675-maryland-says-100-percent-of-covid-19-deaths-last-month-were-among

@cwebber There are about 1,000 people per month who die of the COVID vaccination. While that is rather low it seems just bad faith to present deaths in this way... shouldnt we be asking what percentage of people who died from the combined list of people who died from covid or the vaccine. I think the way this is stated it would make people suspicious considering.

@cwebber I dont have any issue with the assertion (the source is another matter). It is true that many of the vaccines are showing to be fairly safe (AZ is in the only one that should be avoided for safety it seems).
What I am suggesting is that the way the stats are presented in the article is likely doing more to make people suspicious of the vaccine (or at least thehill) than helping. Largely because it is cherry picked and presented in a way that isnt really fair or informative, it is biased.
The CDC presents the data far more honestly, and it is in line with what i said (about 1000 die a month from the vaccine).
My issue is more about how the data is presented and the integrity that suggests, than any issue with the vaccine itself (I am not anti-vaccine).

@freemo you might not accept the source but I'll link https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/safety/adverse-events.html and the last bullet point there
