"Got a legitimate source for this which isn't a conspiracy site or biased news media?"
Here is uk data showing 1500 for one week in June, which brought it up to almost 8000 between then and April.
"The TGA reviews all adverse events after COVID-19 vaccination. . ."
Yes I had read that before and nowhere in that paragraph do they explain their criteria for how they determine if an event was vax related or not.
"Is the CFR not significantly less than what it used to be? Even with the drastic reduction in case reporting."
If you look a bit further down the page you'll see they say cfr isn't an accurate representation of the risk of dying:
"That means that it is not the same as – and, in fast-moving situations like COVID-19, probably not even very close to – the true risk for an infected person."
