        I only did a quick skim through the abstracts so I might miss some important details, but from what I can tell, they’re all rare/one-off events. Sure, they exist, but the rate at which these vaccine injuries exist is eclipsed by that of Covid itself; there’s a reason why the hospitals were overloaded by Covid and not vaccine injuries. The point is not that the vaccine is 100% safe, it’s that the downsides of Covid far outweigh that of the vaccine (not to mention that, at least from what I understand, vaccine injuries are not contagious, unlike Covid, and hence you are protecting others who are immunocompromised). Tl:dr is that unlike what you see with the overloading of hospitals during covid, they have no problem handling a couple of vaccine injuries here and there.

          Skimmed some of the studies as well. A few of the studies reported an estmated incidence rate of 4 per 1 million. And that’s just incidence rate. Meanwhile the mortality rate of covid that year was 1850 per million cases. Some of the names themselves are dead giveaways.

          One of the other mentioned 7 kids who had complications from the vaccine. In the conclusion, it basically says “we gave them advil and they were good.”

          It’s just more fear mongering and gish gallop.

            I agree, but I don’t think the studies themselves are to blame though, they’re simply reporting the facts. OP just simply misinterpreted it, knowingly or otherwise. The studies back up the point that ‘vaccine injuries exist’ which I don’t think anyone is arguing against. The important point is rather that ‘Covid is significantly worse than any vaccine injury, and our system can take care of the latter but not the former’.

          Don’t inject yourself with early access pharmaceutical products that won’t do what they promise and will almost certainly result in a serious adverse side effect.
