Science News: The largest global vaccine safety study to date found links between Covid vaccines and small increases in neurological, blood, and heart-related conditions. Guillain-Barre syndrome, myocarditis, and cerebral venous sinus thrombosis were among the conditions identified. Learn more about the study's findings and their implications.
Title made me wary that this could be antivax BS, but article is decent and writes that vaccines offer substantial benefits for nearly all recipients, though nothing in life is truly risk-free and naturally adverse events can rarely occur.
With that said, I would be very careful with this messaging because humans are bad at probability. The title seems unnecessarily ominous IMHO.
I don’t see anything new presented here. It’s been known for a long time that there are vanishingly small risks involved in vaccination.
Not to mention that the OG study doesn’t really extricate COVID vaccine effects from COVID effects. They’re just comparing to pre-COVID baselines, which does not adequately address the impacts of COVID on those same conditions.
