I want to see some evidence that there are tons of problematic reports on VAERS as you have claimed. Not just random arguments. I am sure that there would be some problematic cases but the exaggerations you made are not true.
Your question makes zero sense...
From the CDC
VAERS reports may contain information that is incomplete, inaccurate, coincidental, or unverifiable. Reports to VAERS can also be biased. As a result, there are limitations on how the data can be used scientifically. Data from VAERS reports should always be interpreted with these limitations in mind.
The number of reports alone cannot be interpreted as evidence of a causal association between a vaccine and an adverse event, or as evidence about the existence, severity, frequency, or rates of problems associated with vaccines.
Where the problem lies is that people much like yourself take the raw data and use it as 100% proof of causality. The reality is the actual percentage after investigations is extremely small. So, there is nothing wrong with the way VAERS system works, it's the people who abuse the information in it to their own biases.
I have stated a number of times we should not be using VAERS for anything, but it seems it consistently come into every other post.

The underreporting has been one of the greatest problems when it comes to register vaccine injuries.
Just because there might be an increased number of reports doesn't make the reports less credible. There is still underreporting despite a possible increase in reported cases.
The vast majority of what they call underreporting is mild conditions. The more serious they are the lesser underreporting there is. When we talk death here, I do not think they are underreporting the worst-case scenario at any level you might think it is.
Some cases may not be investigated for political reasons and because the system is reluctant.
Why we do not have information on something seems to always come back to a government coverup whether we talk aliens or 20 million vaccine deaths.
You need a better fall guy...this one gets old...

Why we shouldn't be using VAERS? Because it doesn't suit your argument? You are mistaken entirely.
You think we should be using our local bakery or local fast-food restaurant?!

Really? You ask that after what I provided with "real" proof as why we should not use the raw data of VAERS...lol you kill me at times...

That doesn't prove anything in this case: The assertion there are tons of problematic reports. There is no evidence for it.
The reality of a very small number of adverse reactions is just an assertion ot yours and nowhere proven.
The number registered at present is multiple times all others for the last 30 years. They may not be all true but that doesn't make your assertion correct.

I have no argument on deaths, it's you all that are putting out the crazy numbers. I'm just trying to see where you all come up with them. Once again where are the million or more deaths so many here are suggesting?
you asked this...
I want to see some evidence that there are tons of problematic reports on VAERS as you have claimed. Not just random arguments.
And I provided you this directly from the CDC

You seem to go down the wrong rabbit hole time and time again. The CDC says "VAERS reports may contain information that is incomplete, inaccurate, coincidental, or unverifiable. Reports to VAERS can also be biased." so what the hell does that mean to you?
And once again it isn't an issue with VAERS it is an issue with people like you who use VAERS incorrectly. The BIG one is unverifiable... So instead of going to your baker for information you should allow the CDC to do their job and verify, validate and apply causation where correct and then use those numbers.

Ya so, the CDC, as I said like 100 times, mandated its use since the COVID vaccine. We already know only about 5% was being registered in the past and if by mandates and general awareness 25% is now being inputting than that is a 5x increase with the same adverse reaction numbers. The overall awareness and focus on COVID is like 1000x than anything in the past, so of course we will see more in VAERS even if the overall adverse reactions have not changed.

You don't know that.
It is just an assertion again.
There are many who don't know they can report their problems. They don't know anything.
After someone receives a COVID-19 vaccine, their healthcare provider is required by law to report all serious adverse health events, even if the provider does not think the vaccine caused that event. These events can include death, inpatient hospitalization or a serious case of COVID-19. That reporting protocol is due to the fact that the FDA authorized the COVID-19 vaccines for emergency use.
Take a look at excess non COVID deaths. In the US there are 300,000 from the beginning of 2020 until end of 2022.
Lockdowns and mass vaccinations be pinpointed. It's not climate change or the republicans.

And only yours. The members of the Health Department in Florida and elsewhere think otherwise.

Not to use as raw data... CDC says this over and over again... But that is exactly what you all use it for. It's like you are dumpster diving for facts.
Of course, it's my opinion you should not use VAERS in this way. After the cases are verified and causation is established all your doom porn goes out the window, that is why you all use it as you do in pulling anything that looks big and saying look this is pure fact.. lol

Again the claim there are tons of problematic reports doesn't stand. And what you have shown is not evidence.
The number of reports alone cannot be interpreted as evidence of a causal association between a vaccine and an adverse event, or as evidence about the existence, severity, frequency, or rates of problems associated with vaccines.

Are you sure the hospital will report them?!

It doesn't say that by the way. Cause and effect cannot be proven this way as it says. But that can be true on some cases and not true on other cases.

This has never been done to this level with any other vaccine. Do you see the by law part... It goes on to say if health professionals do not report of if anyone false reports it will be fines and/or prison, so you tell me.

Right, and you have zero way of knowing. Also, since a low percentage actually turns out to be causal then you are basically providing completing wrong information, but hey it's a bigger number so all is good.

Comprehension is not strong with this one...
You keep repeating something I never said... You swap to some argument that was never my point....
It is an open-source reporting system, not verified, not validated, zero causation applied... I think you are using the wrong words or something, it is not problematic at all since it is just a way to report. The CDC straight up say...
The number of reports alone cannot be interpreted as evidence of a causal association between a vaccine and an adverse event, or as evidence about the existence, severity, frequency, or rates of problems associated with vaccines.
But you and others "interpreted as evidence of a causal association" all the damn time...lol geez just let it rest.
