That's a strange one: There were 3410 total cases of suspected COVID-19 that were not PCR tested (to confirm either a positive or negative diagnosis.) Can a scientific study just ignore a big chunk of the evidence just like that?

Hey, with Sinovac's. No less.

The Norwegian Medicines Agency announced today, Thursday, that 23 people died after receiving the “Pfizer” and “BioNTech” vaccine against “COVID-19“, while the country’s health authorities changed recommendations for vaccinating the elderly with this vaccine.
The agency noted that “all deaths were recorded among elderly people over the age of 80 years and those with weak immunity.”
“These cases are not alarming. It is clear that this vaccine has a very small risk factor, with few exceptions when it comes to elderly patients who suffer from poor health,” the Norwegian channel “RK” quoted the agency’s spokesman Steinar Madsen as saying.
“The usual side effects could contribute to a more serious course of disease in the elderly,” he added.
However, The National Institute of Health added a change in its recommendations to vaccinate critically ill elderly patients.
The vaccination against the Coronavirus (COVID-19) began in Norway with the “Pfizer” vaccine on December 27, and residents of nursing homes in Oslo received the first vaccinations.
It has been announced that 25,000 people have been vaccinated with the aforementioned vaccine in Norway so far.
The agency sources stated that two people who were living in a nursing home, died after being vaccinated with a vaccine against Coronavirus infection and that it had opened an investigation into the incident, explaining that it was conducting reviews and examinations after the death of the two people.
According to Russia, Today website, the agency and the Norwegian National Institute of Health received a message, last Tuesday, stating that two residents of the nursing home died a few days after they were vaccinated with a vaccine against the Coronavirus and that their experts are looking into whether the death is related to vaccination.
Agency spokesman Steinar Madsen said: “It is necessary to know whether there is a link between these deaths and vaccination, or whether the death was due to chance.”

And not a peep from those usual news media that would immediately change into the witch-hunting mode had this has anything to do with Chinese vaccines.
@quantumlight ,
Oh gosh, I'm looking forward for China 4th Olympic gold medal in Women Volleyball.
2021 may become more worst then 2020
Did Pfizer include the elderly in their test groups?
The Olympics have had their day and most of the sports have their own world championship and anyway, the Olympics have become too bloated and expensive.

It is also worth noting the alarm the new Brazilian variant of Covid is causing in governments around the world, with many nations banning flights from Brazil.
It is interesting that no one in the media is making the blindingly obvious connection and asking if the Sinovac results might have been skewed by the much more potent Brazilian variant.
Although the plus side is that the Sinovac vaccine would appear to be clinically proven to be effective against the new Brazilian strain in so far as preventing deaths and serious illness at a minimum.
