So you reference an article that no one in the US can read. Then you put data on a graph that doesn’t make sense. Then you declare case proven. Typical of how you spin info to your antivax viewpoint. Nonsense.

After a long time, we have another large dataset from IHIS. At first glance, this looks like the Holy Grail, because the description of the fields suggests that the data contains, at the individual level, information about the five-year period of birth, gender, calendar weeks of all covid vaccines, calendar week of death, and cause of death (covid/non-covid). In addition, the data contains information on tests and covid hospitalizations. No country in the world has yet published such a dataset (completely incomprehensibly for us).
On closer inspection, however, the data raise many doubts.
The file contains 12,597,668 lines, which is suspiciously high. Even if the second, third and other infections that are marked as duplicates in the data description are excluded, there will remain 12,125,969 rows, which is still too much. There are not that many people in the Czech Republic, even if you count all the dead since 2020.
The file does not contain an (anonymized) identifier of a person, so it is not possible to match rows that belong to the same person. Therefore, it is not possible to link the vaccination data with the data on death and its cause. Therefore, it is also impossible to find out what duplications are the reason for the previous point.
When examining the column "DateDeathDeath", we find that the numbers given there approximately correspond to the course of death according to the Czech Statistical Office. Until the end of 2022, the difference in weekly deaths compared to the CZSO does not exceed one percent, but in the second half of 2024 it is already rising to tens of percent. The death data is therefore usable until the end of 2023 at the latest. However, even the differences with the CZSO in the statistics of the weeks of 2020–2023 are suspicious and should not be there.
A much bigger problem, however, is that a total of 1,556,198 rows of the file do not contain any data (except DCCI=0), i.e. neither birth nor gender data. Similarly, we have 63,606 lines that contain only the date of death, again without birth and gender data. A substantial proportion of these deaths occurred in 2020, and when compared with data from the Czech Statistical Office, it is clear that these deaths did occur. Not only can these deaths not be matched with the cause of death, but they cannot be assigned to a given age group and gender. It is therefore not possible to calculate any mortality rate, as it is always dramatically dependent on age and gender.
Hence, this dataset is worthless for analysis. Its examination has already cost several statisticians hours of time. We will inform IHIS about the problems described above through the applicant and ask for the publication of data in the same format as here, with the decisive period being extended at least until the end of 2023 and adding a column on whether the death was caused by covid or not.

Nonsense? I’m sure the people in the know, like Pfizer Scientists, never received these jabs. I’d bet on it.
You’re Wrong. How surprising. Not.
