Responding to the above post.......
I have heard of vaccine trials being put on hold twice because of adverse reactions.Those trials resumed shortly after. Fingers crossed...
I have not heard that people have died from the vaccine during trials. I have heard of one 28 year old man (who was a physician who was in contact with Covid patients) who participated in the vaccine trials who died. It was established that he was not receiving the vaccine but the placebo. The cause of his death was from complications of Covid-19.

Anyone who becomes ill for any reason is an adverse event (not reaction) Not aware of anything so far traced to a vaccine. Adverse reaction at time of injection would bring things to a screaching halt. Clinical studies indicate People are reporting similar reactions as to a flu vaccine after injection.
The perfect is the enemy of the good. A vaccine that saves 10,000 people from a disease but risks 1 adverse reaction due the the vaccine is an acceptable risk for me.
Disclosure, I am a participant in a vaccine trial so my bias is clear. Early results show initial safety and effecacy hurdles of the protocol have been met as the studies continues.
