evidence: Steve Kirsch’s claim that New Zealand data shows COVID-19 vaccines killed millions is based on a flawed analysis [...] Factually inaccurate: New Zealand’s excess mortality statistics contradict the claim that COVID-19 vaccines have killed one in a thousand people. Over 90% of adults in New Zealand were vaccinated in 2021, a year that actually saw negative excess mortality, or fewer deaths compared to the pre-pandemic baseline. On 30 November 2023, entrepreneur Steve Kirsch gave a talk at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, claiming that New Zealand data showed COVID-19 vaccines have "killed over 10 million worldwide". Kirsch, who had been invited to speak by the student group MIT Students for Open Inquiry, has a record of propagating vaccine misinformation. As documented in previous reviews by Health Feedback, Kirsch’s claims frequently rely on methodologically flawed analyses.
