Vaccine link to serious clotting disorder firms up

A rare but very serious side effect that has complicated Europe's COVID-19 vaccination schedules for the past month has now thrown a wrench into U.S. immunization efforts as well. Researchers believe the problem, characterized by dangerous blood clots and low platelet counts, may be triggered by vaccines produced by AstraZeneca and Johnson & Johnson (J&J), which both contain a modified adenovirus. They have identified an errant immune reaction as the possible cause, but don't yet understand how it arises.

There are 222 suspected cases of the syndrome so far in Europe among 34 million people who have received their first dose of the AstraZeneca vaccine, recently named Vaxzevria; more than 30 have died. The European Medicines Agency (EMA) on 7 April acknowledged “a probable causal association” between the syndrome and the vaccine, and some countries have restricted Vaxzevria to older age groups at higher risks of severe COVID-19.

The immune system is very complex but the answer to getting around this clotting problem should yield to scientific scrutiny.

chance of getting clot is too low to worry

more people are being hit by lightening

But this will make more people hesitant about getting vaccinated. How would you feel about being given a shot when you know it could have nasty side effects?

chance is too low

covid is much worse still so still worth getting vaccine

even one vaccine will help increase immunity some and weaken the covid

If you are high risk for Covid you might go for it.
If you are a healthy 30 year old why not wait until you can get a mRNA vaccine?

Probabilities matter. Every time you walk out your door, there is a chance a herd of stampeding zebras escaped from the zoo will trample you. But do you worry about it? No, because the probability is low. The same should go for one in a million vaccine reactions.

And it's kinda funny when people who have no concern about possible delayed reactions from multiple mRNA vaccines get all worried about this.

Because mRNA vaccines might be much worse, especially after repeated injections, year after year.

On what hard evidence is your opinion based-or is it just your lay opinion?

Your complete lack of understanding about how the mRNA vaccines work is showing-again.
In a year, when you have been proven wrong, people will laugh at the posts you have written.

the virus causes blood clots.

New Cause of COVID-19 Blood Clots Identified

A new study reveals the COVID-19 virus triggers production of autoantibodies circulating through the blood, causing blood coagulation and clots in people hospitalized with the disease.

my guess is that catching the actual virus would be much worse than getting the vaccine for nearly everyone.

So now you are a clairevoyant fortune teller?
