While very important in monitoring vaccine safety, VAERS reports alone cannot be used to determine if a vaccine caused or contributed to an adverse event or illness.
VAERS reports may contain information that is incomplete, inaccurate, coincidental, or unverifiable.
The number of reports alone cannot be interpreted as evidence of a causal association between a vaccine and an adverse event, or as evidence about the existence, severity, frequency, or rates of problems associated with vaccines.
Anyone citing VAERS data has read this and has acknowledged reading this disclaimer and still uses the data in exactly the way VAERS itself says it "cannot" be used for.
It is unethical and dishonest to misuse data like that. If you see someone citing VAERS data as evidence that vaccines cause particular adverse event or illness, you should keep in mind that they know they are misusing this data and are in effect lying.
There are psychos everywhere. In just about every population of people. I'm not saying they're in a higher concentration level in the antivaxx community, just that they're in there like anywhere else.
So of course that can't be trusted when you have antivaxx activists posting complete fabrications or 3rd hand stories from a first hand perspective.

Again: completely dishonest and they know it is.
