People with covid jabs have been less likely to die of other causes
A study finds a discrepancy, but not an explanation

For the unvaccinated, the mortality rate was more than three times as high, at 1.11 per 100 person-years. The pattern held across all races and ethnicities, and in most of the age groups, even as overall mortality rates changed.

After excluding deaths from COVID, researchers compared death rates between the vaccinated and unvaccinated. Excluding COVID, the unvaccinated are still dying at a rate three times higher than the unvaccinated.
The researchers don't really know why. A small part of it is that people with bad health problems might skip vaccination, and such people are more likely to die, but that's not nearly enough people to explain the difference.
Other guesses?
Maybe COVID deaths are being greatly undercounted.
Maybe vaccinated people take better care of themselves in general.
Maybe the unvaccinated engage in more self-destructive behavior.
Maybe Bill Gates is sending out covert assassination squads.
Maybe it's all another liberal media hoax from the known commies at _The Economist_.
