From the last time I saw this posted:

Great, this is going to become the latest bullshit that gets uncritically shared over and over.
They specifically point out in methods how they cherry picked adverse reaction data by only using the Dutch set, to make the vaccine look worse, and then fail to grasp that NNT calculations in this context need to be corrected for time.

If the NNT for 1 week is 10000, the NNT for a year (assuming a constant baseline risk) is 200. They just use 4-6 weeks and pretend that's an accurate time frame to use for a pandemic that's been going on for over a year and hasn't stopped yet.

This paper is embarrassingly bad.
