Many here on OPP opine that millions of doses of the
vaccine have been administered, and ONLY 3,500 deaths have been reported under the VAERS system here in the US. Other serious adverse events are reported, but frequently minimized by critics, even thought the Agency For Health Research and Quality (AHRQ) claims that even fewer than 1% of adverse events are reported under this system.

"VAERS has always has multiple problems.
One: Doctors aren’t required by law to report adverse effects. Many of them wouldn’t risk blowback by doing so.
Two: There is no comprehensive effort to determine whether an adverse effect is actually caused by a vaccine.
Three: Patients can make adverse-effect reports—but are often hesitant to do so.
Four: By far the biggest problem is: most Americans aren’t even aware that VAERS exists.
Therefore, on balance, UNDER-REPORTING adverse effects is the primary defect of VAERS.
Many efforts have been made to estimate the degree of under-reporting. These estimates state the VAERS numbers should be multiplied by 10, all the way to 100, to obtain an accurate picture of adverse effects.
Ten times the current number of COVID vaccine adverse effects would equal 1,929,540. A hundred times the current number=19,295,400. Either way, the number is staggering.
The death reports are escalating by the day. As of May 7—4,057."
