It’s interesting that it’s in France. If this was the US, I would expect huge residual confounding because of the stark political impacts on vax uptake, and how those affiliations are linked to a host of other risks.
Also some of this is more directly related to vax, like CVD deaths months later

Chances are that whatever happened between February 2023 and August 2023 isn't related to SARS-CoV-2 (ongoing healthcare reform? change in coding or hospital admission criteria? etc)
