How many people have died from allergic reaction to covid vaccine?

  What does the covid vaccine have to do with anything? Anaphylactic reactions to vaccines are common, and are an assumed side effect of any vaccine. Multiply the entire population of the world by 1%, which is a normal assumed rate of an allergic reaction to most vaccines, and then figure out how many people don't have ready access to epi pens (a temporary fix that gives you an hour or so to get to the hospital, and the price of which has been significantly jacked up by the pharmaceutical monopoly), or live anywhere where an ambulance response time is >20 minutes (most major US cities). And then you have a fun little number that's expendable for the common good, so to speak. No, it isn't large, but it sure as all hell isn't 0.

    You're confidently incorrect. Allergic reactions to vaccine are not 1 in a hundred, they're generally closer to 1 in a million.

      Looking at the data from the CDC, (https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/70/wr/mm7002e1.htm https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/70/wr/mm7002e1.htm) the most recent, best tested, most safe vaccine that we have has a rate of 11,1/million, so we're both off by a factor of ten in opposite directions. ;)
