The vaccines are obviously safe, but can someone explain 2021 data from openvaers?

Or maybe we should ignore data in the interest of science.

Many more vaccines were administered in 2021. Dividing by total number of vaccines likely yields almost constant ratios. (This is just a guess as I did not look at the data...)

This is most likely the correct explanation. Compared to COVID, the number of people who take flu vaccination is insignificant.

I have gotten the flu vacc the first time this year, because why not

It doesn't.
Over 100 million vaccines were being administered in USA annually even before covid.

Yes the novel messenger RNA vaccines cause heart inflamation and sometimes death. This is well established by now.

Most people see covid 19 as a big threat (presidents were not laughed at when they called it a war) so they don't care about a few people being dying as part of the battle.

From what I can tell, myocarditis is not deadly if treated. Also, COVID-19 can cause myocarditis, so refusing to be vaccinated over that possibility could likely lead you down the same path anyway.

It's a risk worth taking with the threat of COVID.

People have fallen down the stairs and died while going to the bunker during a bombardment.

I have more data

Also this:

VAERS is an early warning system that can generate hypotheses that require adjudication of reports; it was never intended to be used as a research dataset, said blogger David Gorski, MD, PhD, of Wayne State University in Detroit.

Conclusion: The data looks like it would be interesting to investigate, but the investigation has long been done. Look at the first article for example.
