US CDC “Corona 19 vaccine, serious side effects are rare”

-The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released a study on the 19th (local time) that the serious side effects of the new coronavirus infection (Corona 19) vaccination of Pfizer and Modena were rare.

According to CNBC and others, the CDC revealed that the result was as a result of analyzing data from December 14 last year to January 13 this year, when more than 13.7 million vaccines were vaccinated in the United States.

The CDC said 6345 of the 6994 people who reported side effects after vaccination were not serious. Only 640 cases suffered serious side effects.

Headache was the most common symptom of serious side effects, followed by fatigue and dizziness. There were also side effects such as chills, nausea, muscle pain, fever, joint pain, and pain at the injection site. Of the 640 people who experienced serious side effects, 113 died after vaccination. However, the CDC said no cases of vaccination-related death were found. Also, about 65% of these 113 people were nursing home residents. In addition, there were 46 reports of anaphylaxis (hypersensitivity), a serious and potentially life-threatening allergic reaction, among Pfizer vaccinators and 16 among Modena vaccinators. However, the CDC explained that the incidence of this level of hypersensitivity was comparable to that of the flu vaccine.
