- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1863-nekkidly/chapter/risk-benefit-ratio-excess-mortality-in-germany.md

Mathematician Robert Rockenfeller estimates that for every severe case of COVID-19 prevented by the vaccine, there are 25 severe side effects. Data shows that age-adjusted mortality in Germany rose significantly between 2021 and 2022, contradicting the expected decline if the vaccine had a positive risk-benefit ratio. Courts in Germany are currently seeing numerous lawsuits from vaccine-injured individuals seeking compensation.

The hosts challenge the media's "empty chair" narrative regarding COVID-19 deaths during the holidays. They argue that many people who died would have passed away from other age-related causes regardless of the virus. They criticize the government-induced fear that prevented families from having final gatherings with elderly relatives.

- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1654-e-safety/chapter/heart-failure-trends-jama-cardiology-study.md

A study published in JAMA Cardiology reveals that long-standing declines in heart failure mortality have reversed, with rates increasing significantly since 2012. The most troubling spike is observed in individuals younger than 45, a trend that reportedly worsened during the COVID-19 pandemic. The hosts suggest these statistics are being ignored by public health officials to avoid scrutinizing vaccine impacts.

### UK Office for National Statistics, Excess Death Calculation Changes

- **Episode:** [1637: LIE-DAR](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1637-lie-dar.md)
- **Published:** 2024-02-26
- **Time:** 0:00–4:16
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1637-lie-dar/chapter/uk-office-for-national-statistics-excess-death-calculation-changes.md

The UK Office for National Statistics revised its methodology for calculating excess deaths, resulting in a lower estimate of 11,000 deaths for 2023. Critics argue that changing the counting method during a period of high mortality serves to obscure the true impact of the pandemic and its aftermath. The new approach accounts for population growth and aging, which officials claim provides a more accurate common UK-wide standard.

MIT-educated engineer Steve Kirsch analyzes Pfizer clinical trial data, claiming that more people died in the vaccine group than the placebo group. He estimates that while the vaccine may have saved 10,000 lives, it potentially caused 150,000 deaths based on VAERS data and other modeling. Kirsch argues the risk-benefit ratio is particularly poor for children.
