the opinions of afrikaans speaking men , doesn't count for much if you consider they were too cowardly to hold on to a country their ancestor spilled their own blood to get
a 5 year old girls opinion is worth more than both of yours

In the past i have posted graphs over a periods of up to 3 months showing the correlation between vaccinations and new cases/variants which also met resistance and attempts to deflect, discredit and ridicule. I will not be deterred, ...
Wait...what?
The responses to your previous bullshit weren't attempts to "deflect". They were *DIRECT CHALLENGES* to the validity of the statistics you posted, which you have consistently dodged and failed to to answer, so I'm just gonna cut and paste but I know you're once again not going to answer:
Have you actually "done the math" though?
1) The first thing you learn in stats is "correlation is not causation". Have you even done a Granger causality test to verify the direction of hypothetical causation?
2) The vaccination figures are cumulative (they are always going to increase, unless someone invents a way to become unvaccinated after you've been vaccinated) and will correlate with any other variable that increases over the same period (and have a negative correlation with any variable that decreases over that period) that doesn't even come close to proving that one causes the other.
3) Do you have any evidence of the extent of overlap between the two groups? Ie how many people are both vaccinated AND positive? And how does that compare to the growth rate of the group of people who are not-vaccinated and positive? Because it's more than possible for both vaccinated and positive groups to be increasing independently (especially when one is a cumulative total).
4) More importantly, how many people are fully vaccinated and have died? Because vaccines don't offer 100% protection but should make infections less severe when they do occur.
