Also, VAERS does not determine cause of death. They're pretty particular about making sure the user of their database understands that. "Reported death" means someone reported that someone died. It doesn't mean that a death was confirmed, that a death was caused by anything in particular. But this is, specifically a vaccine-data website so there will always be some kind of correlation which does not mean causation.

If someone gets vaccinated and falls out of a tree, their death is not caused by the vaccine, it's caused by breaking their neck during a fall.

However if someone gets vaccinated, and climbs a tree that day and suddenly gets dizzy and then falls and breaks their neck, THAT would be a "correlation." But it still doesn't mean there's a causation. Their dizziness could've been caused by a momentary hearing imbalance as a result of running a chainsaw on four other trees in the yard right before they climbed that one.
