This warrants an investigation, why has one not started?
Anecdotal evidence is not evidence but it is still part of the scientific process and it should not be ignored. Anecdotal evidence is the thing that makes a good scientist notice an anomaly that should be investigated. It might turn out to be nothing but it could also prove to be vitally important. As an engineer I am brought anecdotal evidence all the time. A problem exists and someone has noticed that the problem seems to correlate with some other occurrence.
When presented with anecdotal evidence I always start with a quick sanity check. I can do back of the envelope calculation to determine if it is even possible for X to cause Y or I can look at a longer history to see if the pattern is consistent. Often my quick sanity check is all that it takes to determine that X is not causing Y which tells me I need to consider other causes. When the anecdotal evidence passes the sanity test it still does not mean that X causes Y but it does mean that I should dig deeper; X really could be causing Y.
Western society has a very schizophrenic relationship with anecdotal evidence. At times we take it as iron clad proof, which it never is, and other times we ignore it completely. Take Climate change as an example. Every time we have a severe weather event it is taken as “proof” that fossil fuels are destroying the earth. That chain of illogic is bizarre. It is two theories piled on top of each other proven by a single data point. Theory one is that CO2 has caused significant atmospheric warming, theory two is that warmer weather causes more severe storms. Neither of those theories is proven and a quick sanity check shows that severe storms are not becoming more common and there is no clear link between warm weather and storm severity. Most of what the global warming alarmists say does not stand up to the quick sanity checks, or logic for that matter, yet the anecdotal evidence of a single storm is taken as scientific proof of not just one but two theories.
On the other end of the spectrum is anecdotal evidence about vaccine injuries. It does not matter how many people collapse on camera, governments are still not curious about the safety of the vaccines. Every dead body is brushed off as normal. It is true that people do die, sometimes even suddenly. The question is has it become more prevalent since the vaccines started? Well I have a quick and easy sanity check for you to start with. Before the vaccines how common was it for you to read news articles about celebrities dying suddenly of unknown causes or children suffering heart attacks? In our Pre COVID vax world these things were quite rare yet last week I found all of these articles on the same day.

I would be the first person to tell you that media reports are not proof of anything but the first sanity checks were definitely positive; there is a reason to keep looking. Next I would look at a larger sample. Do I see an increase in unexplained deaths of ordinary people who do not warrant news coverage? I have already posted insurance data showing unusually high deaths in young people. The death toll is so high even the Communist Republic of Canada has admitted that young people are dying in unprecedented numbers.
Everyone should be concerned when a problem gets too large for even Communists like the Trudeau Liberals to hide. The anecdotal evidence is overwhelming and passes the sanity checks. This needs to be investigated, so why is no government financing any investigations? We have spent trillions on global warming, a theory that can’t even pass the simplest of sanity checks, yet we can’t spend any money to figure out why so many young people are dying?
