US Measles Cases at an All-Time High After Disease 'Eliminated'

How many kids died from vaccine complications in the last 50 years?

They haven't kept that data until VAERS was implemented in 1990.

But doing a quick-ish search of the VAERS database for 2024 alone shows there were 59 registered deaths in children under the age of 18 associated with adverse vaccine reactions.

Doing a random screening of years I found 211 child deaths associated with vaccines in 1995, 120 in 2000, 135 in 2007, 155 in 2009 and 48 in 2019

If we average those out we get 121 annually as a rough estimate. If we project that out over 50 years we get ~6,000 deaths of children connected to adverse vaccine reactions in 50 years.

Doing a random screening of years I found 211 child deaths to associate with vaccines in 1995, 120 in 2000, 135 in 2007, 155 in 2009 and 48 in 2019

If we average those out we get 121 annually as a rough estimate. If we project that out over 50 years we get ~6,000 deaths of children connected to adverse vaccine reactions in 50 years.

So.....it's not a major problem then.

I can go to VAERS and make an entry that says that the vaccine gave me a 4-month erection and that entry would not be removed.

I never said it was. This measles epidemic is ALSO not a major problem for the same reason.

I am simply pointing out what a stupid ploy it was to pull the "what would you tell those parents" bullshit when the statistics proved that this epidemic really isn't. It's not a major concern because the vast majority of Americans are vaccinated.

Your argument is rather silly given that the CDC follows up on the more severe VAERS reports for verification.

Granted, taking your idiotic argument at face value we'd have to accept "Nobody dies from Vaccinations and I know this because we don't keep valid records!" as a valid argument. :rolleyes:

And my entry about a 4 month erection would stay in VAERS and other people (like you or me) could see it and base arguments on it.

Do you now understand why data there can't be used without much research?

So you are arguing that stupid claims like yours aren't verified, but you don't deny that serious claims are investigated? Good thing my search eliminated all but the reported deaths, then.

I'm arguing that all data there isn't verified and if enough people are conned (by places like Fox News) regarding vaccines they just go to VAERS and make entries and, presto, you have a trend of vaccines causing <fill in the blank>.

Because VAERS says so. Hell, you're quoting it.

You wont be able to use that as a crutch much longer. HHS is creating a real vaccine injury reporting system. VAERS was created when the vaccine manufacturers got protection from being sued and it was created that way to protect big pharma.

VAERS only captures about 1% of all vaccine injuries. Imagine the numbers with a real system.

Grok:

VAERS: Reports indicate 1,469 child deaths from 1997–2013 and 2,605 infant deaths from 1990–2019, with SIDS being the leading cause

How is this system going to operate differently from the VAERS system?
 
To put this Measles epidemic in perspective, the US has 1,277 confirmed cases out of a population of 340 million while Canada has ~3,300 confirmed cases in a population of 35 million. There are more cases in Ontario alone than in the entire United States.

The US vaccination rate is ~90%, Canada is 83% (though it's as low as 70% in some places)

Mexico's vaccination rate is <80%, but there is no data reported directly by Mexico on measles cases.

This site tracks measles cases throughout the Americas, and they do show data for Mexico... though I'm still looking for their source:

This map can be misleading because the circle sizes were chosen for visibility, not scale, they would have been better off just replacing the circles with the underlying numbers.

If you don't want measles, get vaccinated. If you don't want vaccinations, get measles.

The mortality rate for measles is about 0.2%

Even claims that are "verified" are just verified as being truthful in that someone experienced that thing. But it doesn't mean they are verified for cause of death being the vaccine. That is not the case in most of these.
