During his podcast with Aaron Rodgers, Joe Rogan talked about a new study estimating that Pfizer's COVID-19 mRNA vaccines resulted in the deaths of between 470,000 to 600,000 Americans.
Rogan compares the vaccine-related fatalities to the combined American deaths from World War I, World War II, and the Vietnam War, suggesting that the vaccines have caused more deaths.The figures Rogan refers to are derived from data adjustments in the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) and studies from MIT and the Florida Department of Health.

Rogan suggests a significant discrepancy in mortality rates among recipients of different vaccine brands, stating a 36% increase in all-cause mortality among recipients of Pfizer’s vaccine compared to those who received Moderna’s.

Joe Rogan’s comments on the study amplify the contentious debate about the safety of COVID-19 vaccines.
