Malcom Roberts is an out and out liar.
With ~87% of Australians vaccinated, there are going to be coincidental overlaps in time between administration of COVID-19 vaccinations and Australians having medical episodes.
There have been ~137,000 adverse events reported from ~65 million vaccine doses in Australia up to early January.
Of those, death was reported in 961 cases.
959 of those have been investigated by the Therapeutic Goods Administration. It was able to tie COVID-19 vaccinations to just 14 deaths.
To give you an idea of how ridiculous some of the claimed vaccine deaths were, the most commonly claimed vaccine reaction where death was reported as an outcome was "procedure complications or poisoning". That's right, people were claiming that getting stuck with a small needle was killing them, or the vaccine was poison.
This was followed (in order) by laboured breathing, malaise, vomiting, headaches, and variations around blood clots. Of those, only the last one should actually be taken seriously.
Of the actual deaths linked to the vaccines, 10 were caused by blood clots and two linked to Guillian Barre Syndrome. These were traced to a viral vector vaccine (AstraZeneca) which has now been phased out in Australia.
So, even if COVID-19 vaccines were a depopulation weapon, they've done an EXCEEDINGLY poor job. From 65 million doses, there's less than 1000 fatalities that could be tentatively connected with the vaccine. Or, a 'success' rate of about 1 in 65,000.
Additionally, the TGA had access to the multi-phase clinical trials data from the UK, Canada, Germany, France, Mexico, Brazil, South Africa and the US before it gave approvals for the vaccines. Despite Senator Roberts' claims, the TGA was not relying on information from the vaccine makers alone. Phase III clinical trails were complete in multiple countries before provisional approvals were granted.
Since then, vaccines have been the subject to multi-phase trials in Australia (at least 17 that I know of), with more than 100,000 Australians participating. My sister is one of those people who participated, and she's involved in a long term study that is ongoing.
