Wow, this is fucking insane. I’m sure there are people stupid enough to actually want to get this shit put in them.
The same people invented the internet, and you're obviously stupid enough to put anything on the internet into your body. So yeah.

Well let’s just hope it’s false. If it is great. If not that’s fucked up.

Yeah, you'll want to keep an eye out for bolts of lightning, too. Especially if you're a female of childbearing age.

Those poor women! Are you saying you don’t care about their lives that are lost?! That’s terrible dude. This shit is real!! One life is just too many! Follow the science!

Who’s to say there won’t be more effects from it? Did scientists predict this would happen? So if they didn’t, how do we know if there might eventually be more later?

False outrage noted.

But it was one woman who died. Just one.

This sounds pretty good. Maybe they can cure HIV this way.

10 cases is not very many. It seems more likely that something else caused the bood clots.

The risk is literally one in a million. And were there any lives lost?

The risk of the same side effect is 1000x greater with birth control pills, but you don’t see those getting “paused.”

I remember clotting issues in some COVID patients being a big talking point in the earlier stages of the pandemic.

People would say, “Well this is only killing whatever small percentage of people so we are totally overreacting by shutting everything down!!!”

And others would respond, “We don’t know enough about this virus! Look at the blood clotting affecting a tiny percentage of otherwise healthy people of the population! ZOMG we need to pause the world so we can learn more about the virus!!!”

And now the rushed-to-market vaccine seems to be causing blood clots in some tiny percentage of otherwise healthy people, but we can’t shut down the vaccination for a few days to learn more about it?

Dude, stop making shit up. Nobody did this.

EDIT: I actually agree with pausing the vaccine for a little while to get a handle on this, but if it turns out this infinitesimal risk of blood clotting is all there is, it should be in-paused quickly.

Johnson & Johnson can't even make baby powder without asbestos in it... I certainly hope their vaccine is under quite a bit more scrutiny

Fairly certain there will be an mRNA HIV vaccine within a year or two

You seriously don’t remember the whole blood clot thing?

Obviously I exaggerated for effect but after the population realized it was mostly affecting older people and people with metabolic disorders etc, blood clotting was the next big excuse for why we needed to continue lock down until we learned more about it.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2020/04/22/coronavirus-blood-clots/

Pretty sure there have been blood clotting issues and resultant pauses with other COVID vaccines too.

Seems like government officials are doing the job we want them to.  They identified the clotting disorder pretty quickly (the reporting system is working), are taking appropriate action while they investigate and are being transparent about it.   

This is how it’s supposed to happen.
