The question whether Covid-19 vaccination campaigns could have had an immediate negative impact on excess deaths continues to be debated two years later, in particular in the less than 45 years old. When the age-stratified (anonymized) vaccination status of deceased will be publicly available, the debate should come to an end. In the meantime, this paper provides three new statistical analyses that further shed light on the matter. Two of them connect the temporality of all-cause mortality data with injection data. Another analysis, using internet search trends, investigates possible alternative explanations. We deem that taken together, as it is done in this paper, those three analyses reinforce our previous conclusions suggesting caution when it comes to vaccinating/boosting young European populations.
