Where are all the usual commenters criticizing why we should be concerned about something that affects .000246305% of those who got the treatment?
FWIW, the number is actually .0034226% based on the CDC data from last Friday.
Because those of us that can do math are too busy...
The wise man knows what he does not know...
This is a non-story with a dangerous implication and no actual information. I wish articles like this weren't published.
People who get vaccinated are going to occasionally experience adverse health events around the time they get vaccinated. This doesn't mean the vaccine caused the event.
The investigation is a standard procedure and does not in any way imply that the adverse event had anything to do with the vaccine. In fact, the whole point of the investigation is to determine whether or not the vaccine might have been a factor in the adverse event.
These investigations have already occurred tens of thousands of times and found no link to severe adverse health events and COVID vaccines.
This is the resource people need on vaccine safety: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/safety/safety-of-vaccines.html
Publishing this article is irresponsible and dangerous, because it strongly implies a link between the vaccination and the adverse health event, despite there being no evidence of a link, and plenty of evidence to suggest that the investigation won't find a link.
Please don't publish misleading articles like this at a time when we need to be reducing vaccine hesitancy, not creating it.
