"The MHRA said about four people in a million would normally be expected to develop this particular kind of blood clot - though the fact they are so rare makes the usual rate hard to estimate."
- scotty79 5y agoSince 22 million people got at least one dose of the vaccine in UK you'd expect 88 of them to get this issue without taking a vaccine. 41 after vaccine doesn't sound alarming at all.
- CarelessExpert 5y agoThat's because it's not. First off, the statistical chance of developing a clot is already pretty damn low. The odds of that being a fatal clot are even lower than that, as now that the side-effect is understood and you can monitor for symptoms, it's typically a very treatable condition. In the end I guarantee you that, thanks to the poor government response and irresponsible reporting around this issue, more people will die from Covid as a consequence of people delaying or refusing vaccination than will die from this side effect.
