Found out Reddit banned me for linking a CDC page on vaccine side effects

I got permanently banned from r/AskDocs last Tuesday for posting a direct link to the CDC's own VAERS database. Not some sketchy blog, just the government's official reporting system for vaccine injuries. The mods said I was spreading 'misinformation' even though the numbers are right there on the .gov site. What surprised me was finding out that over 1.2 million adverse event reports have been filed since 2020, and like 13,000 of those were deaths. I didn't even give an opinion, just dropped the link and asked folks to look for themselves. The ban notice said I violated their 'harmful content' policy. Has anyone else gotten the boot just for posting publicly available stats that the mods didn't like?

13,000 deaths out of over a million reports is like 1.2%, that doesn't even sound that crazy for a population level thing. Honestly feels like mods just overreacting because the topic is touchy.

Exactly. My sister was one of those reports, she got the shot, had some mild flu symptoms for a day, and was fine. Meanwhile everyone I know who got COVID was wiped out for two weeks minimum. 13,000 out of a million is a tiny fraction, you can find that kind of number in any vaccine rollout or even just regular medication. The mods are scared of the word "vaccine" and treat it like a bomb instead of looking at basic math.
