How can you blame “vaccine passports, triple jabs” for rising deaths among the unvaccinated?

Could the governments have done more to unsure vulnerable people got it, while at the same time not bypass every core rules western democracies stand on ?
Here’s a few tips : 1- make the EU contracts with pfizer and moderna public (i can’t believe they thought this was a good idea)
2- don’t pretend vaccines are 100% safe, report about side effects, and communicate about ongoing investigations around them. Saying « everything’s fine » when you can easily find online testimonies of people having horrible side effects, is NOT the good approach.
3- admit that there are still unknown unknowns about mRNA vaccines, as there is with every piece of new tech. We still have 0 statistics about >2 years side effects. By definition.
This is an adult way of communicating. It doesn’t rely on fear but rather providing the maximum amount of quality information, so that everyone can make its own decision about their own health.
This was done. I've got an Apple News+ subscription which lets me read several mainstream newspapers and they all had extensive coverage of side effects, and followed the investigations on them.
This was and is being done. Anti vaxxers are aware and are making plentiful use of the open data sharing being done by governments and researchers on vaccine risks.
For instance, the J&J vaccine rollout was paused in the USA due to an extremely rare side effect - costing lives in the vain hope of making people feel that the government was being cautious and safety-focused. In other countries such as Australia, government scientific committees delayed the rollout of vaccines such as AstraZeneca to certain populations out of fear of side effects as well. Governments have published statistics and discussed the myocarditis and pericarditis risk from mRNA vaccines.
Unfortunately in the age of the internet, people aren’t actually reading hundred page papers and getting degrees in statistics to evaluate published risks of myocarditis or blood clots - hearing their favorite podcaster bring in a guest who warns the vaccine is more dangerous than the virus is enough to convince an antivaxxer to stay in danger.
> We still have 0 statistics about >2 years side effects. By definition.
It’s equally true that we have zero statistics about the side effects of the virus after two years… what is known is that vaccine side effects typically occur within 60 days of administration. Just like we have no data the Sun will rise next morning , but we assume the laws of physics keep working because they always have worked that way.
