Here, we posit that the reporting period for AEs related to the COVID-19 vaccines may need to be longer (than the traditional 6 weeks for other vaccines)
In this retrospective, observational study, we aimed to assess the chronology of new/worsening ailments occurring after the administration of COVID-19 vaccines based on the changes to the participants’ pharmacological records.
Patients vaccinated against COVID-19 and experiencing health-related events during the study period (between September 30, 2021 and July 15, 2022) were included and the changes to their pharmacological records were analyzed.
Conclusion: Most (76.1%) of the health-related events experienced by patients vaccinated against COVID-19 occurred beyond the 6-week period prescribed by the health authorities. Our findings call for further investigations and an extension of the AE reporting period.
#Israel was one of the 1st countries to roll out #pfizer#covidvaccine nationwide. They only used Pfizer and heavily vaccinated the population. For the first year of roll out they had virtually NO safety pharmacovigilence system in place to find early safety warnings and respond
Finally in early 2022 a team was convened to collect and analyse #adverseevent data. The team identified 22 categories of adverse events, including safety signals not listed by Pfizer such as neurological side effects, tinnitus and others.
They also found that there were many long-term adverse reactions; in 50% of the reports in which duration was mentioned at all, the side effect lasted longer than SIX MONTHS.
In #nz the #covidvaccine Advisory Group CV-TAG strongly advised our Govt NOT to mandate 2 doses to children aged 18 and below due to unfavourable risk/benefit profile
They said: 11/11/21 younger age groups are more at risk than older age groups of myocard after dose the second dose of Pfizer vaccine, while a robust antibody response and early limited clinical effectiveness data indicate some protection from Vax after 1 dose of Pfizer
"consideration should be given to permitting younger people who have had one dose to be permitted to work or undertake other activities covered by the mandate"
In Dec 2021 the NZ Tech Advisory Group tasked with advising our Govt re safe use of the #covidvaccine strongly recommended that your child was at very low risk of harm from covid but very real risk of HEART DAMAGE from 2 doses of #mrna
They advised the Govt (twice) that your under 18 year old should NOT be mandated to receive 2 doses of #pfizer because of this unfavourable risk/benefit profile
In NZ the #covidvaccine technical advisory group is called CV-TAG. It is their job to "independently" assess international safety and efficacy data and inform our Govt on safety implications #covidvaccine. They were tasked with this re the roll out of the vax for 12 to 15 years.
In Aug 21 with awareness of the clear safety signal of myocarditis especially in young males, they recommended only health compromised high risk receive it. 3 days before cabinet meeting CV TAG overrode their own advice, moving to full roll out to age 12 - 15.
Coneyed by 1 2 line memo Its lack of detail suggests that this was the result of a hasty political decision that was being rubber-stamped by the advisory group.
