You mean like the preliminary data that said the vaccines had 99% efficacy when they first started rolling them out which is now down to 20% or less or the reams of data about increases in all sorts of dangerous side effects relating to them? Let's look at all data if we are going to bring it up. The vaccines aren't even being covered by life insurance if they prove fatal since they are labeled as experimental.
So what Youtube conspiracist did you learn all this from?
The vaccines were never at 99% efficacy lol. It was like 94% for Moderna, against the first strain. These vaccines aren't as effective against Omnicron, but Omnicron is also not nearly as dangerous, which is why you most places opening up right now despite the huge surge in cases. What dangerous side effects have been published?
They were being announced at 99% at first. Even if I take your number we are at 94%. The vaccines were not released specifically to deal with just what they were calling Omicron either. Vaers is the reporting system used for vaccine injury in this country and there are more cases already reported for these vaccines than all other vaccines combined going back to like 2014. You don't need to find conspiracy videos on Youtube to know any of this. Point being that a lot of data released at first did not turn out to be accurate at all. Just as deaths due to covid have been drastically reduced in many countries after they admitted there were errors made in how they were recorded. Also, here is a link to a story from May of last year claiming 99% efficacy for vaccines.

Its very clear that you dont understand medical trials or statistics (common thread among antivaxers). Crazy how much misinformation you have in one post
The initial trials Pfizer/Moderna conducted showed around 90% accuracy. These are the studies that gave the medications the emergency authorization. The Saskatchewan study was extremely small sample, only a 3 week timeframe during the period which the vaccines are most effective. In either case the data was not inaccurate, you just have to understand the limitations and what theyre studying. The 20% efficacy was against mild infection, protection against severe disease remained high. Your comparing apples and oranges, your looking at two completely different end points.
VAERS is next to useless, was a abused by anti vaxxers before COVID, not surprising they took to expressing their outrage over a mandatory new vaccine. There was not a drastic reduction in covid deaths from many countries, care to cite an example?
