Abstract

Reference [1] presents a histogram with the number of days from COVID-19 vaccination to death on the horizontal axis and the number of deaths on the vertical axis, based on a report from the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW). This article gives a mathematical interpretation of the histogram and discusses excess mortality based on this interpretation.
