THE STUDY revealed how it is with thrombosis and other events after vaccination: THIS group is actually worse off – Topky

For example, blood clots or myocarditis have been reported, which, of course, has raised concerns about vaccination among members of the public. The answer to the question of whether these concerns are justified is now given in an article published in the British Medical Journal, which was also pointed out by our infectologist Peter Sabaka.

The authors focus on the occurrence of thrombosis and other serious vascular events that required hospitalization in patients in the UK one month before and one month after vaccination. Data from almost 20 million people vaccinated with the AstraZeneca vaccine and nearly 10 million patients vaccinated with the Pfizer / BioNTech vaccine were analyzed.

At the same time, they brought happy news to the public. The study found no increase in venous thrombosis and embolism in patients vaccinated with Pfizer and only a very small increase after vaccination with AstraZeneca. “Myocardial infarction and other arterial thrombosis were not affected by vaccination with any of the vaccines. ” Sabak approached.

However, he pointed out that vaccination with the AstraZeneca vaccine statistically significantly increased the incidence of cerebral artery thrombosis. And twice as much. “This is a well-known thing and Astrazeneca is no longer vaccinated for it (although the risk of this thrombosis is very small and even if you multiply it twice, it is still very small. But we play safety for vaccines and therefore we decided not to vaccinate AZ) , “ stated. According to him, this illustrates that this study was “sensitive enough to detect the accumulation of any of the events.” “An increase in incidence was also observed after mRNA, but as you can see, the yellow line intersects the vertical line 1x of incidence, so the statistical significance is not clear.” he added.

Infections have a problem

However, the authors also compared the incidence of these events in patients who contracted COVID-19, as indicated by pink dots and dashes on the graph. “As we can see from the graph, the incidence of all observed events is much higher in people who have been infected with coronavirus than in patients who have only been vaccinated,” Sabaka warned. He cited venous thrombosis and embolism as examples, where it has been shown that vaccination with mRNA vaccines does not increase the incidence of this event at all, while coronavirus infection increases it up to eightfold.

“Unfortunately, as we already know, coronaviruses probably infect almost everyone who no longer has immunity. I would very much like that not to be the case, but unfortunately, that is probably the reality. What does this mean? 19 significantly reduces the risk of thrombosis by reducing the risk of COVID-19 which significantly increases the risk of thrombosis, “ concluded Sabaka.

We officially have four deaths

In Slovakia, a total of five different types of vaccines were vaccinated. Substances from Pfizer / BioNTech, Moderna and Johnson & Johnson were administered. The Russian Sputnik V vaccine was vaccinated in Slovakia from June to August this year. Vaccination with the AstraZeneca vaccine was suspended in May after suspicions of blood clots began to appear. It was only given to people waiting for the second dose.

In our current statistics, we have four deaths related to coronavirus vaccination. In one case, a vaccine was administered from Pfizer, in the other from Moderna. The other two deaths occurred after vaccination with the AstraZeneca vaccine. “To date, we record a total of four deaths due to vaccination, of which in three cases the association was determined to be possible (after Comirnaty, Spikevax and Vaxzevria vaccines) and one as probable (after Vaxzevria vaccine),” said the State Institute for Drug Control. .
