  • Being the petty person I can be at times, someone on ye olde reddit posted a list of people who “died from the vaccine” and listed… 23 names I think it was? I looked up all the information I could on all 23 and concluded 2 of them I couldn’t definitively say what their cause of death was, but not a single one pointed to the vaccine (and a not-insignificant number wouldn’t have even had access to the vaccine in their country at the time they supposedly died from it.)
