When and whether to get a COVID booster should depend on your health status, risk tolerance, timing of last infection and other personal factors, experts say.
The thing about a report like this is you could just as easily have gotten an asymptomatic COVID infection at some point and now be experiencing long COVID rather than symptoms as a result of the vaccine itself.
We have a person in the office who is now dead set against having any more vaccines because her blood pressure has increased a lot recently and she’s positive its vaccine-related. But that seems fairly unlikely, plus she has been someone who after a few vaccines started claiming she’d had doctors tell her that COVID wasn’t that bad, so she’s traveled a ton compared to almost everyone else in the office, which to my mind makes it much more likely she got an asymptomatic version and now is suffering after-effects of that.
But then again, I’m not medical professional either. This is just me pointing out that correlation is not causation.
Very weird that you would blame the vaccine and not the deadly and disabling virus that is the 3rd leading cause of death proven to cause various health issues, increased chance of heart attacks, brain damage, and has killed and disabled millions of people worldwide.
If you’re not going to share the sources of these “studies and sources” or provide a meaningful definition of “excess deaths” then you’re asking complete strangers to rely on anecdotal evidence and your own personal judgement. Seems far more irresponsible than sharing an article with multiple public health organizations and medical professionals among it sources.

It’s almost like a pandemic happened around the same time the vaccine came out

You have covid symptoms but not covid? How do you know you don’t have covid? You could also have gotten long covid from asymptomatic infections.
