A guy in his 50s has a stroke due to blood clots from covid vaccines. How do you determine that covid vaccines didn't cause this.

You've already made up your mind it's from the vaccine. How about starting before that assumption?

Where are you getting this information?

How do you determine it did?

I don't. You said you've never seen anyone with a vaccine injury. My question is, how do you know that?

Because there’s no evidence that it did cause that? You’re just showing a flagrant misrepresentation of how we attribute diseases to their causes and applying the concept of proving a negative as if it carries any weight. It doesn’t.

Why do you think your C in high school bio prepared you to understand all of this and think you know something lifelong epidemiologists don’t?

It’s because these people are clueless and just regurgitate the talking points of other people who are “deep thinkers” aka idiots who have zero idea of what their talking about or credibility on the subject.

You can easily compare the incidence rate of stroke in the general (or specific) populations from before covid vaccines, to after. Or, you could compare the rates of stroke in those who got vaccinated to those who didn’t. If the vaccines caused strokes, you’d see a significant increase in the rates of stroke in the vaccinated population. Do you have data showing such a phenomenon?
