Results confirm how uncommon known complications are as researchers confirm benefits from vaccines still ‘vastly outweigh the risks’
Two new but exceptionally rare Covid-19 vaccine side effects – a neurological disorder and inflammation of the spinal cord – have been detected by researchers in the largest vaccine safety study to date.
The study of more than 99 million people from Australia, Argentina, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, New Zealand and Scotland also confirmed how rare known vaccine complications are, with researchers confirming that the benefits of Covid-19 vaccines still “vastly outweigh the risks”.
Researchers working as part of the Global Vaccine Data Network used deidentified electronic healthcare data to compare the rates of 13 brain, blood and heart conditions in people after they received the Pfizer, Moderna or AstraZeneca vaccine with the rate that would be expected of those conditions in the population before the pandemic.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the side effects were a milder version of what those specific people would have had if they had the actual live virus.
No doubt, but the vaccine guarantees exposure and the virus does not (if you basically give up your whole life, anyway.)
There’s no exposure to the virus with RNA vaccines.
Exactly, it’s just a protein produced for a brief time.
Giving up life was an option, and they took the vaccine to not take that option.
Covid is and was contagious enough they were pretty much guaranteed to be exposed.
