The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in the United States (CDC) has an Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP). The last meeting of the Committee last year took place on 19 and 20 December. The next one will take place on February 24-25, 2021.
Among the experts consulted by the CDC was also the epidemiologist Dr. Thomas Clark, who presented his work on the British Vaccination Campaign with the Pfizer / BioNTech Comirnaty vaccine. As of Friday, December 18, 112,807 people had received COVID-19 vaccine and were under active surveillance of V-Safe (a CDC smartphone-based tool that uses text messages / surveys to gather health data and allow reporting of any adverse reactions, etc.).
Of the 112,807 vaccinated people, 6 had anaphylactic shock and 3150 people (2.79%) reported side effects or “health impact events”. According to the CDC, “Health Impact Events” are defined as situations that have made vaccinated people “unable to perform normal daily activities, unable to work, in need of care or medical treatment”.
In essence, the risk of adverse effects from the vaccine (cure) is significantly higher than the virus (problem).
Dr. Thomas Clark concluded: We have a 2.79% higher risk of vaccine side effects than Covid-19 death, where the risk is 1.8% (which includes the elderly and high).
