re: White House preparing for major narrative shift: sudden deaths = Long COVID, not the vaxx.

Yes, it was.

No. It wasn’t.

It wasn’t believable that they had a trial where 20,000 unvaccinated people only had 162 infected with Covid.

It wasn’t believable then. It’s not believable now. Especially now that we know that they had 2000 patients with unconfirmed Covid in total across both treatment arms. Around 800 of those patients were never Covid tested.

It was always a lie. It was always a money grab. It never was an effective vaccine.

How is this a "narrative shift" of any sort?

Seems like it is already the narrative in the medical community.
Was talking to a GP yesterday who said there has been a major increase in AFIB cases. I mentioned the Vax and the response was it is from people that got infected by covid not the Vax ...

It's not a "narrative"

There are studies that indicate that mortality rates significantly increase for people in the 12 months after COVID infection

I've seen some of these studies more than a year ago so this isn't some recent "narrative shift" like moron OP is trying to frame it

Care to share the studies? Does it provide vaccination status of those who died?

Before taking any advice on any subject from someone, first ask them this simple question: Is this a man or a woman

Pureblood checking in. I'm so glad I didn't get those shots.

In this particular study the time frame would suggest that it's not likely that many were vaccinated because it wasn't available. And the vax rates are listed

Long Covid Mortality Study from Estonia - April 28,2022

Population and setting
We included data on all people who tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 during the first year of the COVID-19 epidemic (26 February 2020 to 28 February 2021). SARS-CoV-2 infection cases entered the cohort on the index date (the 1st positive SARS-CoV-2 test date), with reference group subjects added from the same date. By the end of February 2021, only 6.0% of the population had received at least one dose of vaccine, and 2.6% had completed the initial vaccination protocol. In the people infected before 28 February 2021 (included in the present study), the respective vaccination rates were 4.1% and 1.8% by that date.

Cohort description
The cohort comprised 66,287 people who tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 RNA between 26 February 2020 and 28 February 2021, and 254,969 randomly selected individuals from the reference population (Table 1). People with SARS-CoV-2 infection were slightly older in average, with a mean age of 44·0 (SD 20·6) years versus 42·4 (SD 22·9) years for reference group subjects (a difference of 1·7 years, 95%CI 1·5-1·9 years, p<0·001); 35,806 (54·0%) and 130,620 (51·2%) subjects were female (p<0·001) in the SARS-CoV-2 and reference groups, respectively. The age difference is mainly explained by the fact that children aged 0-9 are underrepresented among SARS-CoV-2 cases (3·5%) compared to reference group (9·6%), whereas the proportion of individuals aged 60 or above is even slightly lower in SARS-CoV-2 cases (23·5%) than in reference group subjects (24·9%, p<0·001). Both cohorts were relatively healthy: 89·8% of SARS-CoV-2 cases and 92·7% of reference group individuals scored 0 on the CCI score (p< 0·0001)

Among the 66,287 individuals in the SARS-CoV-2 group, the overwhelming majority (92·1%, n=61,063) had a non-severe course of COVID-19; 5·4% (n=3,557) had severe disease (requiring hospitalisation) and 2·2% (n=1,467) had critical disease (needing intensive care). In the reference group, within the acute period (up to five weeks after the index date), 0·8% had a health condition requiring hospitalization (n=2,106), and 0·3% (n=666) needed intensive care.

A time-dependent analysis showed that among individuals aged under 60, all-cause mortality was higher among SARS-CoV-2 cases than reference group up to 35-days post positive SARS-CoV-2 test (aHR 4·7, 95%CI 3·0-7·5), but not later in the follow up (mid-and long-term aHR 0·9, 95%CI 0·7-1·2).
Among subjects aged 60 and above, mortality in the SARS-CoV-2 group remained higher than in the reference group for the entire follow-up period (Figures 2, 3), ranging from extremely high risk of death within 10 days of a positive SARS-CoV-2 test (aHR 20·1, 95%CI 15·5-26·1), and being over three times higher during mid-term (weeks 36-84: aHR 3·9, 95%CI 2·9-5·1) and close to two times higher in the long-term period (aHR 1·7, 95%CI 1·5-1·8) (Figure 3).

Some of the graphs can't be linked because they're scrollable and not a direct image I can link

There are a number of studies you could look up on this if you took the time to. There is significant evidence that mortality of all sorts increases after COVID infection, particularly serious COVID infection. Maybe there actually is something to the claim that the impact of these deaths is majority COVID related and not vaccine related. That's not to say that the vaccines have 0 impact because we do know of some potential side effects and certainly the excess deaths due to the vaccine isn't 0. But it is evidently dwarfed by actual COVID.

Or you could tell yourself that Gumbo Pot and Strannix have this whole thing figure out if it makes you feel better. I wouldn't go that route.

Long COVID is as real as fibromyalgia.

“Long COVID” is actually a patient created term, also.
