The modeling spread in the link is hilarious

Vaccine efficacies against infection, and symptomatic and severe disease for different vaccine types — for each variant and by time since vaccination — were drawn from published estimates. The model was calibrated to reported national incidence data between October 1, 2020, and November 30, 2022, and validated with the trends of hospitalizations and deaths. We evaluated the impact of vaccine rollout by simulating the pandemic trajectory under the counterfactual scenario without vaccination. The simulated outcomes of total infections, hospitalizations, and deaths were compared to the fitted model, reflecting the actual pandemic in the U.S. and vaccinations that occurred between December 12, 2020, and November 30, 2022. We then estimated medical cost savings based on these averted outcomes, as previously described.

“Published estimates” is the buzzword, they have no proof of efficacy so they simply do the Fauci and take the 98% effective published and then adjust for each new variant. What’s hilarious is that the Covid death numbers are so fucked to begin with the study actually suggests the numbers have been inflated based on their trend results.

We made up a bunch of numbers, plugged them into excel, fiddled with it until it spit out what we wanted to see, and declared ourselves heroes of humanity.

Unfortunately, this power can be used for evil as well. This is exactly how global warming was created as well and that will end humanity in 10 years time if we don't do something RIGHT NOW!

So how much money did Pfizer and Moderna pay these prostitutes who falsely call themselves researchers?

It's doubtful that pharma had to pay them. Academic institutions, aka Monasteries of Democracy, exist almost entirely to generate justifications for the actions of the regime.

Who will rid us of these troublesome priests?

Too be fair they were using junk numbers per their own methodology, “reports and estimates” doesn’t tend to make legitimate modeling data

I'm even skeptical of that at this point.

And if it did "save some," which ones were they? 55-85-year-olds? And how many otherwise healthy 15-30-somethings did we kill (or doom to a future premature death) in the process?

Billions. Plural.

Ya fucked the world economy for years and ruined an entire generation's social development. That's gonna result in a lot more premature deaths than the direct side effects of the injection once the final count is tallied.

I don't care if the injection saved literally every person who took it, the cost of the last three years is still too high for it to be justified.

Is that net lives saved in life-hours versus lives shortened in life-hours?

Because if it isn't, it isn't worth anything as a study. If an ancient old woman lives one day longer than her actuarial tables predict, is that "one life saved"? If it's a day shorter, is it "one life lost"? The terms are meaningless, they are trying to present a "profit" value, without either "revenue" nor "expenses".
