Is Vaccine Efficacy a Statistical Illusion

This is not very good analysis. The first chart is based on his hypothetical editing of data, and then the second chart is real data but measuring a different thing (non-covid deaths). And the assertion that these charts look similar so maybe the vaccine is a placebo is foolish. Here is a quote that I think exemplifies the problem:

"Also how is it possible that, at the time vaccination rates are ramped up to nearly 100% of the population, the nonvaccinated are dying from non-covid deaths at almost twice the rate of those who are vaccinated?"

Maybe because the very small minority of people who are not vaccinated are different from the vaccinated population in some other way?

In most countries there is also a delay between when people are moved from the "unvaccinated" to "vaccinated" category -- e.g. two weeks post second Pfizer/Moderna dose in the U.S. Those who take only one dose and then do not take the second (for whatever reason) remain in the "unvaccinated" group. It would be interesting to see how this would affect the picture in their model in combination with (or independent from) delayed death reporting.

Everything is in the eye of the beholder. There should be consensus among scientists before drawing conclusions.
