| lastshell | I'm pro vaccine and masker, but this new caugh my attention https://www.ktnv.com/news/coronavirus/las-vegas-teen-learning-to-walk-again-after-rare-covid-19-vaccine-reaction | 18:47 |

| LjL | lastshell, if it's CVST, which "rare thrombosis" makes me think it is, it's no walk in the park at all, and they're lucky enough to be alive. CVST or other thrombosis with low blood platelets was reported with both J&J and AZ, especially AZ, which caused it to be stopped for younger people in most of Europe | 18:57 |
| LjL | mRNA vaccines also have elevated incidence of thrombosis but of the more uh garden variety kind | 18:57 |
| LjL | vaccines are a risk/benefit thing, the risk *can* exceed the benefit, i think this is important to realize, we shouldn't be anti-vax but we shouldn't be fanboys either, we should try to look as objectively as possible even though it's quite hard. now the Nordic countries have suspended Moderna for younger people... we'll look at their data about that (myo/pericarditis risk) when they submit them to EMA. we already knew that Pfizer and Moderna can cause that, it's | 19:01 |
| LjL | usually self-limiting and not fatal, but if their scientists have some data and based on those data, they find, "so look our estimate of the probability of a 20 year old dying of COVID is N, but their probability of dying from the vaccine is M>N, so we can't recommend the vaccine for people who are 20". even if M and N are both very low numbers, that's going to be the conclusion | 19:01 |
| LjL | but at the same time it's also important to realize that things like VAERS alone are *not* the sort of thing that gives you that information, at least not without a *lot* of statistical analysis on them | 19:01 |
| LjL | and that even if there's just 1 event, one in total, where a teenager has paralysis after the vaccine, you can be sure you're going to read news about it, and it's normal for the brain to start thinking of the chances of something bad happening as becoming bigger, when you are confronted with a specific case of it happening | 19:02 |
| lastshell | LjL, is there a way to avoid to get the blood cloths before or after the vaccine ? | 19:03 |
| LjL | paradoxically it can worry people more to read about the story of one person who didn't die, than to read "1 out of 10000 die" | 19:03 |
| LjL | lastshell, there is a theory which is somewhat popular at least in this channel that they might be caused by the injection ending up in the bloodstream instead of in the muscle (it's an intramuscular injection, so it shouldn't be injected into blood). the person making the injection can do something called "aspiration" to make sure they aren't injecting into blood. i know that de-facto asked for aspiration, and obtained it, when he got his vaccine | 19:04 |
| lastshell | ok | 19:07 |
