COVID vaccine side effects

Are they rare?  

Can we have a discussion?

Anti vaxxers often contribute BS but the medical establishment is still pushing “rare” as a narrative despite mounting evidence 

Some efforts to find out the reality and sift out personal, corporate and political agendas…

discussion of Covid side effects was aggressively suppressed

reporting to VAERS [is highly discouraged by the medical community]

But

the confounding problem is that the anti-vax crowd has a bias to any out-of-band health issue as the result of the vaccines

…

With the topic of Covid vaccines having become so deeply politicized, and their unacknowledged problems leading to widespread vaccine hesitancy even with old vaccines with very good safety profiles, we are sure to see the pent-up anger about Covid vaccines (the result of dubious and punitive mandates) generate full-throated criticism under Trump 2.0. But the lack of good data means the demonization won’t be factually better founded than the earlier knee-jerk defense.

…

Of course, vaccines save lives. But the “nothing to see here” posture regarding legitimate vaccine side effects is preventing government from having our backs and following up on flaws in the products — in the same the way it does when romaine lettuce or lunch meat gets contaminated, or air bags don’t function properly.

…

as is well known in the medical profession, there really is a flaw. Several vaccines have a problem with Guillain-Barré syndrome, known as GBS.
