Yes without a 'vaccine' this disease would have run it's course and then petered out. It is the way of the world. There was no vaccination for Bubonic Plague and it ran it's course and then petered out. All a vaccine does is lower the amount of illness and death. a reply to: network dude
but the reality is, that's not a measurable number. It's entirely possible the vaccine did nothing at all, or that the only thing it did is hurt. There is no track record other than the failure that was hidden.

FDA Settles Lawsuit over Ivermectin Social Media Posts
The FDA has agreed to delete and never republish several social-media posts suggesting that ivermectin, a drug that some doctors used to treat COVID-19, is for animals and not humans.
While the FDA still does not approve of using ivermectin to treat COVID, it settled Thursday a lawsuit brought by three doctors who sued it, as well as the Department of Health and Human Services and its secretary, Xavier Becerra, and FDA secretary Robert Califf. All parties have settled.
The lawsuit, filed on June 2, 2022, was brought by doctors Mary Talley Bowden, Paul Marik and Robert Apter, each of whom claimed the FDA was interfering with their ability to practice medicine.
The case was initially dismissed on the grounds the FDA had "sovereign immunity," though a U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit reversed the lower court's decision saying that the "FDA is not a physician."
The appeals court also said that, "Even tweet-sized doses of personalized medical advice are beyond the FDA's statutory authority."
1.) Ivermectin threatened the Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) for the so-called C19 vaccines. If Ivermectin had proven to be an effective treatment, then EUA for C19 injections could have been nullified.
2.) Undermined vaccine uptake. “If ivermectin would have found to be effective, what would be the uptake of those vaccines?” asked Dr. Pierre Kory. “It would plummet.”
3.) Ivermectin would sabotage the profits from the C19 injections. “They knew it would destroy the market. And that market, probably over a few years, is north of $100 billion.”
4.) It threatened “the market for the competing pipeline patented pharmaceuticals like Paxlovid and Molnupiravir and Remdesivir, and they’ve made many billions off of those.”
5.) Too cheap to make money off of. Dr. Michael Turner says Ivermectin costs merely “$24 to save one life from COVID.”
6.) “This pandemic would have been over if everybody was on ivermectin, and that’s why they had to destroy it.”

Bad math and faulty papers are hardly an endorsement of the fellow.
Choose to believe as you wish all the same.
But the fact of the matter is the majority of people who choose to get the vaccine are doing just fine.
As to your meta-analysis, this is interesting.

" I guess the fact that 99.9% of the people who got vaccinated are still alive and doing well is kinda putting this rhetoric to bed, isn't it? "
What is 99.9% of 20 Million ?

Right
With that... Do we know the reasons WHY they want to use this mRna technology in our food chain so bad???
Here are a few things I have seen.

False.
The efficacy of a vaccine (or any treatment, for that matter) is measured statistically. Any of the many scientific studies over the last few years that look at the efficacy of the vaccines or other treatments like Ivermectin or Hydroxychloroquine compare the outcomes of a population of those who get the treatment versus those who don’t.
For example, here’s a paper titled “Effectiveness of mRNA Vaccination in Preventing COVID-19–Associated Invasive Mechanical Ventilation and Death — United States, March 2021–January 2022”
www.cdc.gov...
They looked at thousands of patients during the time period indicated who were hospitalized for covid-19 but had been vaccinated and compared their outcomes to covid-19 patients who had not been vaccinated and to hospital patients who did not have covid-19. The outcome they were looking at was whether the patient had to be put on a ventilator or died. Their conclusion:
“Receiving 2 or 3 doses of an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine was associated with a 90% reduction in risk for COVID-19–associated IMV or death. Protection of 3 mRNA vaccine doses during the period of Omicron predominance was 94%.”
Unfortunately, most people don't seem to be able to understand arguments based on statistics.
