Do COVID-19 vaccines have a death rate that is over 1000X higher than the acceptable safe limit?!
Take a look at the viral claim, and find out what the facts really are!
Claim : COVID Vaccines Have 1000X Death Rate Than Safe Limit!
People are sharing an article by tech millionaire Steve Kirsch, who claims that the COVID vaccines have a death rate that is 1000X higher than the acceptable safe limit!
Here is an excerpt from the really long article, so feel free to skip to the next section for the facts!
The COVID vaccines have an estimated death rate >1,000 higher than the acceptable safe limit
But nobody at the FDA or the CDC cares about that. The real story is that an estimated 80% or more of the vaccines examined in this study are too deadly to be used. Here’s the data showing that.

Truth : COVID Vaccines Do Not Have 1000X Death Rate Than Safe Limit!
This is yet another example of MISINFORMATION being created to scare people about the safety of the COVID-19 vaccines, and here are the reasons why…
Fact #1 : VAERS Data Is Unverified
First, let me just point out that VAERS data is unverified, and notoriously susceptible to abuse, and false reporting. That’s because it’s an open system that anyone – not just doctors, can report anything they want.
In addition, the reports may be duplicated and have not been verified to be related to the vaccine or drug in question. Hence, VAERS specifically warns against using its reports to reach any conclusion about the risks or safety of vaccines / drugs in question.
But that is precisely why anti-vaccination activists love using VAERS data – it’s unverified, and very susceptible to abuse and false reporting.
Fact #2 : NVICP Data Does Not Cover COVID-19 Vaccines
Oddly, the VAERS Analysis chart used data from NVICP (National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program), but not CICP.
Why does it use NVICP data when actual COVID-19 vaccine claims are covered by a separate programme called Countermeasures Injury Compensation Program (CICP)?
COVID-19 vaccines are covered countermeasures under the Countermeasures Injury Compensation Program (CICP), not the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program.
Fact #3 : 1000X Death Rate Was Completely Made-Up
As mentioned earlier, VAERS data is unverified, and open to abuse and false reporting. So deaths reported to VAERS may not be related to the vaccine, and may have duplicate reports.
On top of that, the VAERS Analysis chart included NVICP data, but not CICP data. Hence, the VAERS Analysis chart with its death rate of 25 per million for the COVID-19 vaccines is highly suspect.
But what’s worse is what Steve Kirsch did with that already suspect data – he multiplied it by 41! Why 41? Why not 42 – the answer to life, the universe, and everything?
Where do I get the 1,000X higher than safe?
The graph shows just 25 deaths per million. But VAERS is under-reported by 41X. Do the math: 25 x 41 = 1025.
How did Steve Kirsch determine that VAERS is under-reported by 41X? Who knows? But multiplying it by 41 lets him declare that there are over 1000 deaths per million, and therefore, the COVID-19 vaccines are >1000X over the nonsensical safety limit of 1 death per million.

Fact #4 : There Is No Such Thing As A Safe Limit
I should now point out that there is no such thing as a universal “acceptable safe limit” for all vaccines or drugs of “1 death per million vaccinated people”.
Decisions on whether a treatment or vaccine should or should not be recommended are based on risk benefit analyses that determine whether the benefits outweigh the risks. Those decisions are exclusive to that particular vaccine / drug, and may change over time depending on new research and data.
Fact #5 : Dr. Paul Offit Never Mentioned A Safe Limit For Vaccines
Steve Kirsch based his “acceptable safe limit” of 1 death per million vaccinated people on a quote by Dr. Paul Offit from an interview with 60 Minutes on 11 December 2002.
However, Dr. Paul Offit never said that 1 death per million vaccinated was an “acceptable safe limit”. This was what he said:
“We know if we immunize a million people, that there will be 15 people that will suffer severe, permanent adverse outcomes and one person who may die from the vaccine,” says Dr. Paul Offit, one of the country’s top infectious disease specialists, and he knows all about vaccines that prevent those diseases. In his lab at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, he studies and creates new vaccines.
Dr. Paul Offit was pointing out that more effort should be made to improve the safety of the smallpox vaccine, since the current vaccine is based on 18th century technology, and there are now better and safer vaccine technologies.
There’s nothing new about the smallpox vaccine. The vaccine was created in 1796. The vaccine used today is essentially the same, Offit says. “We tend to think of vaccines as being very safe and every effective, which they are. But all the vaccines that we use today are the result of modern technology. That’s not true of the smallpox vaccine. It has a side effect profile that we, we would not accept for vaccines today,” he says.
That doesn’t mean that 1 death in 1 million vaccinated is a universal safe limit for vaccines. It merely means new vaccine technologies can be used to make an even safer smallpox vaccine.

Fact #5 : COVID-19 Vaccines Have Been Proven Safe + Effective
Anti-vaccination proponents are not interested in your health, which is why they keep spreading misinformation about the safety and efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines.
The truth is – COVID-19 vaccines were only approved AFTER they have undergone large safety and efficacy tests, involving tens of thousands of volunteers.
And even after receiving Emergency Use Authorisation and full FDA approval, they continue to be monitored for safety and efficacy.
The reason why doctors and health authorities STRONGLY advocate vaccination is because the vaccines have been PROVEN to protect the vast majority of people from getting COVID-19 in the first place.
And even if you do get infected after vaccination, the vaccine will protect you against hospitalisation and death from COVID-19.
