Sorry to read a post about a friend dying from blood clots following vaccination for covid i revisited vigiaccess. Data for flu vaccination shows 999 deaths since 1968. Data for covid 19 vaccination shows over 4,000 since 2020?

Where is this data?

What search term did you use?

boogiebogie · 25/04/2021 23:44

You look up covid-19 vaccine, adrs, general disorders. And influenza vaccine for flu...

4052 that's interesting. Wonder how it breaks down further into vaccine types.

Interesting that 40% of ADRs were in the 18-44 yr old group & overwhelming women although maybe women report more.

@rarat

Interesting that 40% of ADRs were in the 18-44 yr old group & overwhelming women although maybe women report more.

And 77% for ages 18-64. This is why we need risk breakdown by age group and not lumping everyone in together if the over 65's are not experiencing serious side effects to the same degree. Data is easy to manipulate to make it look better or worse if you only give an overview.

It would be unwise to compare to flu data

UMC depends on data from national databases to run VigiBase, which is an international repository

Who was reporting what in 1968 is utterly different to what happens now.

Would you have bothered to find out how to use VAERS in 1970 and write in? Or even have known to ask your doctor to make sure they reported?

Would you bother today to use the online Yellow Card reporting system, which is being positively publicised to record covid immunisation reactions?

And factors about participation are true for every country, though of course some are worse than others.

Yes good point, however i was looking at deaths which i guess would have been reported back then?
