I've had plenty of flu shots and never got a VAERS handout but I got a handout for the covid shot, I'm betting VAERS saw lots of use with the covid shot that wasn't common with other vaccines, so that has to influence the numbers.

From a gov't website:

"A report to VAERS generally does not prove that the identified vaccine(s) caused the adverse event described. It only confirms that the reported event occurred sometime after vaccine was given."

I guess if you see more coverups than the average person does then you'll probably form different opinions than the average person.

Also, the "freedom marches" include many Q types I'm sure, and if folks think the Q types are reasonable people, well you know...
