So many of you are jumping all over the OP because of his well known anti-Covid vaccine opinion, actually his opinion that Covid is a nothing burger. But it is just as anti-scientific to disregard a potential rare but serious side effect of a vaccine. The numbers of reported clots are tiny compared with the number of vaccines given. It is incumbent that the responsible agencies conduct their analysis.
There are other options for vaccines and if it turns out this one has a side effect that exceeds the risk of other vaccines, then that needs to be considered in balancing risk vs benefit for each recipient. |

The OP SEEMS to be grasping at straws and using a minute number of possibly (likely?) unrelated events from a vaccine that is not even an option in the US in order to justify his anti-vaccine position and to warn/convince/frighten others into agreeing with him. |

JHU site appears to be down today but as of three days ago, Sweden's death per capita was better than US, Italy, and the UK and was about the same as Brazil. Comparing the country to US states, Sweden is doing better than NY, CA, FL, CT, ND, and SD and about the same as MD and MN. Had they taken the same approach as all of those we would say they were doing pretty well. Given that they took a much more hands-off approach, they seem to have come through very well. We'll see what the stats look like when the JHU site comes back up. |

As stated, my information came from the JHU COVID-19 Map. Absolute number of deaths, CFR, and deaths per capita (population numbers from worldometers or statista) all favor Sweden. But don't take my word for it, actually do some research. |
Now the review of clotting issues is complete and the vaccine has been found safe. There are no more clotting issue in vaccine recipients than would be expected by random chance. That means that people who did not get a vaccine have the same rate of clots as people who get it. Will people hear about this outcome or just remember the news stories about the risk of clots. We all know how that will end.

The Oxford/Astra Zenica has been put down on several occasions by European Politicians as revenge for Brexit, especially by the French, because their vaccine didn't work.
The stories were perpetuated by other Pharma Companies because of the low price of the AZ vaccine compared to their prices. There have been side effects with other brands of the vaccine, but with none of the very public scrutiny. Considering the number of official tests and clearances done on the AZ vaccine, it is probably one of the safest vaccines out there! |

Our daughter and husband received Astra-Zenaca yesterday in London. It has not yet been approved by the U.S. health agencies. |
