Medical experts expected the vaccine to reduce the number of people who got sick,
and among those who got sick, to reduce the severity of the disease.
That's why mortality rates were higher among those who did not get the vaccine. E.g., in Europe, deaths were
reduced 57% between Dec. 2020 and March 2023. 1.4 million lives saved.

232,000 deaths could have been prevented in the US during the same time period, but were not for lack of vaccination.

The "rush" to create vaccines saved lives. Anti-vaxx propaganda cost lives.
Initially everyone was told the shot would stop the transmission of covid and if you had the shot, you could not pass covid on. Pro shot propaganda, proven false.
