SHOCKING! – U.K. Government release 30th report on adverse reactions to the Covid-19 Vaccines

The UK Government have released their thirtieth report highlighting adverse reactions to the Covid-19 injections that have occurred since the roll-out began on the 8th December 2020, and the number of birth defects and reproductive disorders recently reported is shocking.

The U.K. Governments report (which you can find here) has collated data inputted up to the 18th August via the MHRA Yellow Card Scheme. Our earliest analysis of the data which we brought you back at the beginning of February showed that there had been 49,472 adverse reactions to the Pfizer vaccine, and 21,032 adverse reactions to the Oxford vaccine up to the 24th January 2021, with a rate of 1 in every 333 people receiving the jab suffering a serious adverse reaction.

Since then the number of reported adverse reactions to the Pfizer vaccine has increased to 302,146 as of the 18th August. The AstraZeneca jab has fared much worse though, with the total number of adverse reactions now standing at 816,393. There have also been 43,949 adverse reactions to the Moderna jab of which 2.1 million doses have been administered, and 3,148 adverse reactions reported where the brand of vaccine was not specified.

This now means the current rate of people suffering a serious adverse reaction after having one of the experimental Covid vaccines stands at 1 in every 142 people, with 1,165,636 adverse reactions having now been reported to the MHRA Yellow Card scheme.

But it’s important to remember that this rate only accounts for the adverse reactions that are actually reported, which is estimated to be around only 10% according to the MHRA themselves, meaning the actual rate of adverse reactions occurring is frighteningly higher.

We took a look at the reported adverse reactions and this is what we found…

(We used the data shown in the UK Governments Analysis Print of the Pfizer vaccine {which you can find here} + Analysis Print of the Oxford Vaccine {which you can find here}.)

 

The total number of blood disorders reported as adverse reactions to the Pfizer, AstraZeneca, and Moderna vaccines now stand at 19,030 as of the 18th August 2021. This includes ailments such as thrombocytopenia which is where your body has a low level of platelets in the blood.

Severe forms of this ailment can lead to bleeding spontaneously from the eyes, gums, or bladder and can result in death. Which is exactly what has happened in the case of the Pfizer vaccine, with 168 cases of thrombocytopenia being reported, alongside 70 cases of immune thrombocytopenia which have resulted in 1 death thus far.

The AstraZeneca injection however, has caused 6 deaths due to thrombocytopenia, with 851 cases being reported to the MHRA Yellow Card Scheme as of the 18th August 2021, alongside 218 cases of immune thrombocytopenia.

image-186.png?resize=639%2C353&ssl=1

Whilst the Moderna injection has so far had 16 reports made against it of thrombocytopenia, and 4 reports of immune thrombocytopenia.

image-187.png?resize=639%2C94&ssl=1

The total number of cardiac disorders reported as adverse reactions to the Pfizer, AstraZeneca, and Moderna vaccines now stands at 14,463 with a total of 252 people sadly passing away after suffering a cardiac disorder adverse reaction to one of the three jabs. This includes serious events such as cardiac arrest of which the Pfizer jab has caused 83 times so far, with 32 of these cases resulting in death.

image-188.png?resize=639%2C272&ssl=1

The AstraZeneca jab has caused 162 people to suffer cardiac arrest so far with 33 of these sadly resulting in death.

image-189.png?resize=639%2C154&ssl=1

Whilst the Moderna jab has caused 3 cases of cardiac arrest so far.

image-190.png?resize=639%2C97&ssl=1

The most concerning disorder to have occurred due to the Covid-19 vaccines, is one that has only recently been reported – Congenital disorders.

A congenital disorder is a medical condition that is present at or before birth. These conditions, also referred to as birth defects, can be acquired during the foetal stage of development or from the genetic makeup of the parents.

There have been 59 birth defects reported as adverse reactions to the Pfizer vaccine, 93 birth defects reported as adverse reactions to the AstraZeneca vaccine, and 6 birth defects reported as adverse reactions to the Moderna vaccine.

Birth defects which include heart disease, cerebral palsy, foetal malformation, and congenital cystic lung –

Next we come to eye disorders, due to all three Covid-19 vaccines there have been 19,030 eye disorders reported to the MHRA as adverse reactions. This includes people losing the ability to see all together, with the number of people now blind as a result of the Pfizer mRNA vaccine now standing at 99.

image-193.png?resize=639%2C246&ssl=1

But the AstraZeneca jab fares much worse with 281 people now blind as a result of having the Oxford jab, as well as 728 people who have been left with impaired vision.

image-194.png?resize=639%2C394&ssl=1

The Moderna jab has caused 12 people to go blind so far, meaning based on the number of reports alone the Moderna jab causes blindness at a rate of 1 in every 116,666 people injected, however is most likely much higher due to only 10% of adverse reactions estimated to be reported.

image-195.png?resize=639%2C130&ssl=1

The total number of nervous system disorders reported as adverse reactions to the Pfizer, AstraZeneca, and Moderna vaccines now stands at 234,270. This includes serious events such as seizure, brain damage, paralysis and stroke. There have been an array of strokes reported to the Pfizer jab and they include 41 cases of cerebral hemorrhage resulting in 8 deaths, 33 cases of ischaemic stroke resulting in 1 death, and 313 cases of cerebrovascular accidents resulting in 13 deaths.

image-196.png?resize=639%2C540&ssl=1

The AstraZeneca viral vector injection has however fared much worse so far causing at least 165 cases of cerebral haemmorhage resulting in 45 deaths, 90 cases of cerebral infarction resulting in 5 deaths, and 1,157 cases of cerebrovascular accidents resulting in 44 deaths.

image-197.png?resize=639%2C441&ssl=1
image-198.png?resize=639%2C530&ssl=1

Paralysis has been reported as an adverse reaction to the Pfizer vaccine 103 times. There has also been 1 report of locked-in syndrome. This is a rare neurological disorder characterized by complete paralysis of voluntary muscles, except for those that control the eyes. People with locked-in syndrome are conscious and can think and reason, but are unable to speak or move.

image-200.png?resize=639%2C219&ssl=1

Paralysis has been reported as an adverse reaction to the AstraZeneca vaccine 308 times, as well as 130 reports of monoplegia. Monoplegia is paralysis that impacts one limb.

image-201.png?resize=639%2C256&ssl=1

Whilst paralysis has been reported as an adverse reaction to the Moderna vaccine 11 times, alongside 11 reports of monoplegia. This means that 1 in every 127,000 people to have had the Moderna injection have been left fully paralysed.

image-199.png?resize=639%2C128&ssl=1

The next reaction has been reported all over social media where vast amounts of women have stated they suffered menstruation issues after having a Covid-19 vaccine.

The MHRA have also stated they are now investigating it, and this is because they have received 1,163 reports of menstrual disorders, 2,017 reports of menstruation irregularities, 1,916 reports of dysmenorrhoea (painful periods), 3,280 reports of delayed menstruation. All as adverse reactions to the Pfizer vaccine.

image-202.png?resize=639%2C546&ssl=1

As of the 18th August there have been 302,146 adverse reactions and 508 deaths reported to the MHRA against the Pfizer mRNA injection.

image-203.png?resize=639%2C186&ssl=1

As well as 816,393 adverse reactions and 1,056 deaths reported to the MHRA against the AstraZeneca viral vector injection.

image-204.png?resize=639%2C208&ssl=1

The Moderna mRNA injection meanwhile has caused at least 43,949 adverse reactions and 17 deaths as of the 18th August 2021. This vaccine has also mainly been administered to younger adults who are least at risk of suffering debilitating disease if infected with Covid-19. Around 1.4 million people have received the Moderna jab which means at least 1 in every 31 people have suffered and adverse reaction and at least 1 in every 82,000 people have sadly died.

image-205.png?resize=639%2C304&ssl=1

The overall number of deaths due to all three jabs now stands at 1,609 when including the 28 deaths that have been reported where the brand of vaccine was not specified. None of the “vaccines” are proving to be safe and the data clearly shows there roll-out must be ceased immediately.

Vaccine is not perfect yet.
 

But is better than 4 million dead covid adverse reactions. 9,000 yesterday.
And 70 million “long covid” adverse reactions. 
And 200 million “spread it to other people” adverse reactions.

And 8 million “business close down forever” adverse reactions. 
And 1 billion “loose the job” adverse reactions.

The numbes, to the antivaxxers, would seem atrocious, but those numbers are against how many vaccines administered?

And while some of these conditions are quite serious an "adverse reaction" can be anything, no matter how minor or major.

I had a slight pain in my neck following my first Pfizer jab, which would be considered an adverse reaction.  I consider it small potatoes when compared to be stuck on a ventilator for weeks before dying.

Lastly, without any vaccines, what would the "adverse reactions" to the virus be?  Double? Triple? Qadruple or more?

You should have printed the actual report

https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/coronavirus-covid-19-vaccine-adverse-reactions/coronavirus-vaccine-summary-of-yellow-card-reporting#annex-1-vaccine-analysis-print

, but instead you publish TapNews interpretation of it.

They call every side effect severe for shock effect, even if they are minor.

I'm not going into it in great detail, as most won't be able to even read and analyse the data in the first place, but you're disseminating fear for no good purpose.

The main points are this:

1) 5.29 billion vaccine doses have been given, yes, some side-effects, but the minority of cases is serious. Compared to the number of sick and death we would have without the vaccines, the numbers of side-effects are tiny.

2) There are more side effects from AZ than from Pfizer. Here we continue with AZ, but in Europe they decided months ago already to stop giving it to under 60-year olds. That's why they cancelled their AZ orders, and ordered Pfizer for boosters for next year. We should learn from this here.

This is the conclusion of the original report:

4. Conclusion

At the time of this report, over 131,511 people across the UK have died within 28 days of a positive test for coronavirus (COVID-19).

Vaccination is the single most effective way to reduce deaths and severe illness from COVID-19. A national immunisation campaign has been underway since early December 2020.

In clinical trials, the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine, COVID-19 Vaccine AstraZeneca and COVID-19 Vaccine Moderna have demonstrated very high levels of protection against symptomatic infection. Data is now available on the impact of the vaccination campaign in reducing infections and illness in the UK.

All vaccines and medicines have some side effects. These side effects need to be continuously balanced against the expected benefits in preventing illness.

Following widespread use of these vaccines across the UK, the vast majority of suspected adverse reaction reports so far confirm the safety profile seen in clinical trials. Most reports relate to injection-site reactions (sore arm for example) and generalised symptoms such as a ‘flu-like’ illness, headache, chills, fatigue, nausea, fever, dizziness, weakness, aching muscles, and rapid heartbeat. Generally, these reactions are not associated with more serious illness and likely reflect an expected, normal immune response to the vaccines.

Cases of an extremely rare specific type of blood clot with low blood platelets continue to be investigated and updated advice has been provided.

The expected benefits of the vaccines in preventing COVID-19 and serious complications associated with COVID-19 far outweigh any currently known side effects. As with all vaccines and medicines, the safety of COVID-19 vaccines is continuously monitored and benefits and possible risks remain under review.

We take every report of a suspected ADR seriously and encourage everyone to report through the Yellow Card scheme.

 

For the rest the report shows nothing that we didn't know already, as they are published regularly.

You really are a vaccine cheerleader. Even when the facts stare you in the face. Australia is starting to wake up to the fact many are dying with covid and not from covid. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9937169/Coronavirus-Australia-NSW-Health-switches-recording-deaths-instead-Covid.html

There are more adverse reactions to these vaccines than any previous vaccines.  Do people not understand the difference between a traditional vaccine and mRNA?  For those that don't you better put on your thinking caps and do some due diligence.  Not only are mRNA new they are basically untested and were rushed to market.

You are quite correct, the maths has been well reported.  Personally I found the comparisons between vax's the most interest aspect of this article, not the sensationalism per se.

Deaths in Thailand don't appears to be fully investigated (via autopsy) and many adverse reactions are seldom heard of except in on LINE groups and they are unreliable anyway.  So an analysis of the adverse effects reported in UK provides a basis for deciding what to vaccinate with, if anything at all.

Note: There's a separate members only discussion section for the anti-vaxxers.

#1 - Considering the fact that most Yellow Card covid-19 adverse effect reports are issued by the medical professional where the person suffering such effects goes for advice/help/treatment, there will be very little Yellow Cards issued for adverse effects that are considered 'normal'.  Why waste time/effort to report adverse effects that are well known side-effects of a jab.  More than half of the covid-19 adverse effect reports on the EU Eudravigilance reporting system are considered SERIOUS, and there is little reason to presume that would be different for the UK Yellow Card system.

#2 - There is also serious UNDER-REPORTING as not everybody suffering adverse effects after the covid-19 jab, or the MD that was consulted for advice/help after such adverse effect, will make the effort to issue a Yellow Card report.  The number of adverse reactions that are actually reported, is estimated to be around ONLY 10% of the adverse effects that take place.  And this is according to the MHRA themselves.

#3 - The proportion of covid-19 adverse effects reports issued is a MULTIFOLD of the adverse effect reports issued for other vaccines.  

#4 - The covid-vaccine roll-out started 8 December 2020, so we are currently only looking at a period of max 8.5 month after the very first covid-vaccine was administered.  Knowing that vaccine adverse effects can and do occur YEARS after getting innoculated (sometimes the adverse effects only manifest after 10-20 years) the figures only address the short-term adverse effects.  It would be interesting when the Health authorities would also publish a prognosis of the longer-term adverse effects, especially since the immune system re-programming instructions of the Pfizer/Moderna jabs cannot be 'undone'.

As said previously Germany will stop all free covid tests.  They are likely concluding the numbers will still be high even with vaccinations.

Completely objectively:

Please read the original report and its conclusion which look very different.

The report printed here is an interpretation. I would have preferred the original as the news (my opinion).

The facts are in:  https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/coronavirus-covid-19-vaccine-adverse-reactions/coronavirus-vaccine-summary-of-yellow-card-reporting#annex-1-vaccine-analysis-print

And they update regularly, open, as government should be.

I have not yet come across anybody that would FORBID others to take the jab, and such a stance would indeed qualify as an anti-vaxxer.  But as a Pro-Choicer, I leave it up to everybody to decide for themselves whether taking the covid-vaccine is the right choice for them.  In short > your body - your choice.  Thank you.

I would be interested to note if these poeple bullying and name calling those who believe in free choice are also strong anti abortionists as they are denying you the right to choose what you do with your own body.  And there is little evidence to support you being unvaccinated poses any threat to them except what may exist in their imagination.

Ok Khun Pro Choicer, what do you choose 😜 short girls or tall girls?  At least anti-vaxxer paints a picture.

On topic, I now understand NZ delayed Pfizer inoculations seeking more data such as shown in the OP.  They already had Astra Zeneca in stock and decided against it's use for the same reasons as stated by UK.  Pfizer has now been rolled out to almost 50% of Kiwis, 1st shot at least, as the total Delta cases climb toward 700 in an extended full lockdown.

NZ is in winter and with atrocious weather which isn't helping matters and so far there's one myocarditis death attributed to Pfizer, though with no coronial findings yet.

You normally don’t see myocarditis in young people, why? Because it’s a side-effect of heart attacks

And yet these vaccines can cause myocarditis, which is mostly seen in young people.

And worst yet, the mortality rate with myocarditis is 50% (This doctor studying the military says it’s higher up to 66% for the age group in the military)
