You post garbage like the image in the above post which in tiny print says it was from October 2020, before the vaccines were released and before the FDA had given them emergency authorization. The screen shot shows a list of POTENTIAL side effects that the FDA would be watching for once the shots were released. It shows the FDA knows that vaccines are not 100% safe and that certain rare reactions may not show up in clinical trials but only once larger numbers are vaccinated.

What that chart does NOT SHOW is that those side effects are actually occurring which you strongly suggest with every misleading post you make about them. Your continuous harping on the VAERS reports shows an abject ignorance about how VAERS gets its data. Anyone, any person whether a doctor or a patient or a friend or someone who wants to make stuff up can submit a report to VAERS where it will be accepted. There is no verification of those reports required to be accepted. You can lie and post all the serious stuff you can make up if you are an anti-vaxer and there it is on VAERS. While the government agency does follow up on the submitted reports, the result of those investigations is NOT posted to the VAERS website. So a wrong attribution, eg I broke my toe because the shot weakened my bones, stays up forever.

So Doctor, tell me and all your readers about your educational background, just a summary like what kind of doctor you might be. Dr J was a great basketball player but I wouldn't use him for medical decision making. Dr King was a great orator and civil rights leader, but I wouldn't trust him for virology advise. Or maybe you're embarrassed about your degree, or plain don't have one and are hiding behind a bogus screen name.
VAERS........ I am not posting much about that reporting system.
