Re: Coronavirus

Vaccines are not risk free, I dont think anyone has ever (sensibly) claimed they are.
Some people just want you to believe is its a higher risk than there appears to be evidence for.

There are probably many studies around this by now.
I found one done in Georgia (US) that covered about 5 million people.
It found that about 0.011% had a stroke within a 21 day period after being vaccinated.

Quote:
Overall, 473 (9.498 per 100 thousand) had ischemic stroke, and 87 (1.747 per 100 thousand) subjects had developed hemorrhagic stroke within 21 days post-vaccination.
It didnt (as far as I could tell) mention how many of these died (strokes are not always fatal).
It could not of course confirm the stroke was related to the vaccine, simply that they had one within 21 days.

It did note that approximately 9% had COVID-19 infection prior to receiving the vaccine, and 0.4% had acquired the infection during the 21 day post-vaccination period. Covid itself is known to increase the risk of strokes.
