OSHA to require employers with 100 employees vaccinate or test workforce

Ignoring that VAERS is unverified data, and taking that 45k as "all these people died directly due to the vaccine", it's still only 45k out of 378M doses administered - 0.012%.

(For comparison, 2021 has 31k gun deaths[1] through September and 21.5k road deaths through the first 6 months.)

You’re going off topic. It is just a tool to track data. But here they are admitting that it suffers from underreporting. https://vaers.hhs.gov/data/dataguide.html

It also says "The report of an adverse event to VAERS is not documentation that a vaccine caused the event."

Also, on the download page, "However, in general coding terms in VAERS do not change based on the information received during the follow-up process. VAERS data should be used with caution as numbers and conditions do not reflect data collected during follow-up."

Which is just different ways of saying "this data is probably unreliable", no?
