UPDATE: As of 2:30 PM CT on July 21, 2021, the CDC's website modified the number of VARS reports related to COVID-19 vaccination deaths from 12,313 to 6,079, through July 13, 2021. The CDC's webpage Last Update date remains July 19, 2021.”
Okey doke, so that has been pulled from a secondary source. I think we've previously covered the problem with relying on secondary reporting of primary source data.

To further underscore the problem with secondary and higher reporting, the CDC does not use phrases like 'COVID-19 vaccination deaths' with regards to the VAERS reporting data. In fact they go out of their way to repeatedly stress that
Reports of adverse events to VAERS following vaccination, including deaths, do not necessarily mean that a vaccine caused a health problem.
Any reporting that passes off VAERS reporting as 'COVID-19 vaccination deaths' is somewhere between so woefully ignorant as to be useless and so maliciously disingenuous as to be dangerous.
