It’s the percentage within each group that the deaths represent that really matters Burliegh.
You have to compare the percentage of each group.
Comparing numbers of deaths of each group tells you nothing because the total number of people in each group is different.

Because the majority of the population is vaccinated, you'll see these vaccinated showing up more in the deaths/cases.

But if we look at the proportion of vaccinated dying compared to the population that are vaccinated it shows that the unvaccinated are still being over-represented. IE the vaccine does have an effect.

I don't have the current stats but this is from July.

3.2% adults in NSW were unvaccinated and 96.8% have at least one dose.

All things being equal in your world Burleigh we should expect the death rates of unvaccinated being 3.2% and vaccinated 96.8%. Even more like 2% and 98% if you think the vaccine is causing deaths.

But deaths of the unvaccinated made up 13% during July. So over-represented.

That there is the true maths.

The stats i posted were from the UK. Not Aus. They are roughly 80% vaccinated i believe.

Actually everyone above, the AAP Fact Check article and most (well it appears all) of the studies it quotes are all wrong.

To answer the question properly, controlled clinical studies/experiments would need to be performed that account for many more confounding variables than are mentioned, in which each group is intentionally infected with covid, and for which not just proportions/percentages are reported but proper statistics and their actual statistical significance.

In fact the studies should be based on very strict and controlled experimental designs as required and dictated by the specific statistical significance tests to be performed.

Quoting proportions/percentages from data observed “in the wild”, ie the general population at large, is just quoting descriptive statistics and does not prove anything at all, pro or anti vax. At best descriptive statistics can only give an indication of whether proper controlled experiments with inferential statistics may be worth the effort.

This has been the problem with covid reporting from the start. And because the general population doesn’t know anything about experimental design and inferential statistics, it just consumes whatever is sold to it hook line and sinker, apart from the questioning by a small proportion of the population who are character assassinated as far right wing, neo-nazi, neo-fascist conspiracy theory nutjobs.

Still waiting for your stats to show me how successful the jab was. Or are you another Roadkill, all bark and no bite? I'm think you're a chihuahua hiding behind a big fence.

How do you rate success anyway? seems a very "loose" term when it comes to Covid vaccinations

Regardless GSCO, the maths is still relevant.

The statistics linked in Burleigh's posts are more erroneous compared to us bringing it back to proportions of the population etc.

hahaha. Yeeew Andy M. Truth be told, i do hold a particular heavy heart for our indigenous brothers and sisters. History shows that white mans society has treated them rather badly. Infact, you could say alot of our Koori brothers and sisters are and have been treated as second class citizens. So when i see or hear something where they are potentially being treated, again, like second class citizens, for sure i'm gonna put a call out to crew on here to double check what the fuck is going on, as it seems it's hard for these crew to have a voice of their own in this society.
I owned that i was wrong about it. But here you are, 1 year later, still going on about it. Pretty fucken heartless to be honest, and i'm not surprised with you Andy M. Yeeew.

What were the exact stats of death rates for healthy young and middle aged adults again Andy M?

The bed wetters here don’t like those stats. They like the stats of the half dead dying with covid to justify the coercion of the healthy population to be injected with an experiment.

Depends on perspective.
How does investigative journalism begin? With rumours and/or a whistleblower who believes there is a cover up.
Cigarettes and smoking started as by definition conspiracy theories.
Other way to look at conspiracy theories is they are simply an investigation into uncanny coincidences. Or perhaps a conspiracy theorist believes that the world works by interpersonal relationships, everyone acting in self interest or colluding with someone on either a small or grand scale.

But these days to be termed a “conspiracy theorist” is basically just a modern insult

And what about birth rates % way down? Seeming the poisonous jab really fucked with womens menstrual cycles they better be investigating this also.

But i'm sure they will blame Covid. Roadkill, Olddog, AndyM & Campbell will nod their heads and agree without question like good little coward sheep.

Once thing about Covid is it really gave cowards a voice. People that have done nothing with their life & always sat in the shadows suddenly became "heros" with a voice. Roadkill, AndyM, Campbell and Olddog i'm talking about you lot.

Malcolm Roberts' low birth rate claim (due to Covid) has been debunked.

(Viewed by date of registration), "the number of births registered in 2021 was almost identical to the five-year, pre-pandemic average (2015-19)."
