Really PC? Highly toxic?
I feel you're exaggerating a little if the 65M+ doses in Australia had as many as 0.2% of doses reporting adverse events.
Or should we say "Scaremongering"?
For every 10 people that get a **** meal in a restaurant, only one will complain. I can't remember what the phenomenon is called in the DSM, but it applies here also. So 0.2 actually reads as 2.0
No. You are making a leap there and not looking at the reality.
People will not complain about a bad meal as they will feel embarassed going up to the waiter and complaining. Online may be a different story.
In this case you may have the reverse where people feel wronged, and want to show how special they are, and then report an adverse reaction. Witness how many bad online reviews you can see for things compared to the good reviews. Why? Because it is easy to do an online review and you do not feel intimidated.
Myself, I find it curious that people on here that seem to be against vaccines have all had some sort of 'injury', yet the rest seem to have not had 'injuries', even though people report headaches, lethargy, and soreness. Is it because the people with the 'injuries' are already negative about the vaccine and want to highlight their point of view?
If adverse events includes headaches and minor complaints, I am not sure how useful it really is anyway. I got similar reactions to a tetanus vaccination and people don't seem to be too worried about those.
