Ireland latest country to suspend AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine

[RickN]

Some people seem to be dying from it but not proven yet. Oh well, I plan to wait a few months at least before getting the vaccine.

There is no scientific reason to suspend this vaccine that I can see. Maybe I’m missing something. European countries are suspending its use over 22 patients experiencing thrombosis events out of 3 million vaccinations, 0.0007%. But the expected annual rate in the general population is 0.1-0.2%, higher in older people. So, the people who were vaccinated had a lower occurrence than the general population. But the nutty antivaxxers will claim this as yet another conspiracy.

I’m all for taking dangerous drugs off the market. It happens all the time. But, I haven’t seen any empirical evidence yet for the vaccines. If there is any, I’ll be the first to support ending its use.

When I got the 1st phfizer shot, they hand out a pamphlet from phifzer that says, they don't know if it works or not, there will be side-affects, just don't know how severe, nor do they know how long the vaccination lasts, if it does work.

My bride and I both received the Moderna shots, with no ill effects. There is more of a risk in driving to the grocery than in taking these vaccines.

I am waiting to see if any of you grow facial hair and breast on your heads.

News flash: all medicines have potential bad side effects. Politicians and journalists pander to create and assuage public fears.
Getting my second Pfizer injection this Friday.
Looking forward to the post-epidemic world.

Basically, legal CYA.
