Polyethylene glycol (PEG) or macrogol is a polyether compound. It is widely used as an additive in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and food [1]. Different types of macrogol exist according to their molecular weight from 300 g/mol to 10,000,000 g/mol [2]. Anaphylactic reactions to macrogol are rarely reported. However, in recent years more reports appeared in the literature with macrogol induced hypersensitivities due to drugs, personal hygiene products, dental products, lozenges and lubricants [3, 4]. Here we report on a female with a history of three immediate type reactions triggered by macrogol 3350.

It has been suspected of causing allergic reactions - including anaphylactic shock - for years.
But the point of my post is this:
They didn't know in 2016 why PEG triggered reactions.
Per the link below (published THIS month), they STILL don't know.
COVID vaccines and safety: what the research says, It is clear that coronavirus vaccines are safe and effective, but as more are rolled out, researchers are learning about the extent and nature of side effects. https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-021-00290-x
Reminder: These shots are wholly-experimental, delivered under EUA (emergency use authorization).

You can pick up your guinea pig treat on your way out. I'll pass, thank you very much. (I'm immune regardless)
Does Johnson and Johnson one dose vaccine have it?
Nope. Apparently has something to do with the mRNA shots only.
This vaccine (Jhnson & Johnson) could be safer for those at risk for anaphylaxis. That’s because it does not have the ingredients like lipids and polyethylene glycol that are in the mRNA vaccines that could cause allergic reactions.
It is because the mRNA vaccines must be kept at deep, deep freeze temperatures or even cryogenic temperatures. Polyethylene glycol is added to prevent it from freezing solid.
PEG is a stabilizing agent added to keep the lipid shell from breaking down prematurely.
Risk of anaphylaxis with the Pfizer shot is 1 in 90,000 (0.001%). Risk of anaphylaxis with the Moderna shot is 1 in 400,000 (0.00025%).
In cases where someone has an anaphylactic reaction, it’s easily and immediately reversed, typically with a shot of epinephrine. In fact, those who are most at risk for this reaction are people who carry and EpiPen with them everywhere they go. The risk to everyone else is far lower, and the treatment is still the same.
There have been zero deaths causally linked to COVID-19 vaccines in the US or the UK out of about 100,000,000 doses given out so far.
That was my initial suspicion, but it’s nonsensical when dealing with temperatures of -94ºF (Pfizer) and -4ºF (Moderna) and small volumes in vials.
In short, mRNA is so unstable (currently) that it’s frozen solid to thaw for use and uses PEG-2000 nanoparticles to both help protect the mRNA and assist the mRNA in cell penetration.
Was her name "Pam" by any chance?

I BEG YOUR PARDON???????????????????
"Over 63 million doses of COVID-19 vaccines were administered in the United States from December 14, 2020, through February 21, 2021. During this time, VAERS received 1,099 reports of death* (0.0015%) among people who received a COVID-19 vaccine."
c/o CDC just now. And that's a number I could effectively argue is underreported.
You all do know that Propylene Glycol is Antifreeze
up till the mid 1990’s the blue stuff was ethylene glycol antifreeze.
After that they changed to the Green or a hybrid of the two for mid aged cars antifreeze. then they came out with various colors to denote various additives for various different engine and cooling system requirements.
IIRC, anything called Antifreeze has a poisons label and “Do Not inject, call Emergency Hotline asap” clearly marked on each container.
Slide on Antifreeze - Vape Nicotine liquids cut with PG (Propylene Glycol) harsh biting type of throat hit (dont ask I read it) were the maid causes of breathing issues with those who mixed their own “flavoured” liquids.
Using Vegetable Glycerine as the cutting fluid did nothing to lungs and throat system, so the only thing that harms the person is the chemicals they use to flavour.
How do I know, 20 plus years of vaping, Only used VG, no flavors.
Had to do a lung proficiency test and have CAT and MRI scans for an unrelated issue and also insurances.
Doctor came back and said did I smoke as I wrote it down, I said yes, Only VG, for some 20 years.
He replied I had the lungs of a healthy 20 year old. Full pass and I was in No way harming myself as VG is in most food stuffs and is absorbed within the body with zero effects.
I am Not 20.

Interesting on your PG experience (see my post from last March), but you’re confusing PG with PEG and ‘antifreeze’.
Totally different animals, all 3.
Have a good night.
VAERS is a self-reporting system for any event happening after a vaccine is given. It specifically states - multiple times - all over the VAERS website that reports put into VAERS have not been verified, are often incorrect, and do NOT have any causal linkage.
VAERS exists so that rare, unexpected side effects can be culled from all the noise that goes in there. It’s not a 1:1 cause/effect system.
Read the actual VAERS website; not what some anti-vaccine website claims it says.
Of course there have been deaths!!! Have you not seen the vaers reports?
Please read https://freerepublic.com/focus/chat/3938311/posts?page=12#12
Then read the actual VAERS website for what those reports mean.
There have been zero deaths causally linked to any COVID-19 vaccine in either the US or the UK. Probably anywhere else on Earth, but I haven’t watched them as closely.
I am one of those that carry an EpiPen everywhere. Not going anywhere near these vaccines.
Odd that as they have PG and PEG as different names for the same animal.
From every “what is vape PG” site it comes back as Propylene Glycol.
And was by history terms first stated as ethylene glycol and propylene glycol and Polypropolyne Glycol
I do not seem to see the error you point out I have made.
Not an argument, just what I know and can read on here, be happy to read three different chemicle makeups of anti-freeze, and PG is Not one of them.
Blessings.
I see the problem now: you’re busy reading FAKEbook when you should be reading the actual source material.
https://vaers.hhs.gov/data/dataguide.html
“A report to VAERS generally does not prove that the identified vaccine(s) caused the adverse event described. It only confirms that the reported event occurred sometime after vaccine was given. No proof that the event was caused by the vaccine is required in order for VAERS to accept the report. VAERS accepts all reports without judging whether the event was caused by the vaccine.”
Time to delete your Fakebook account. They’re selling your data and all you’re getting for it is garbage and lies from people with too much time on their hands.
How many people can “self report” their own death?
Reports are accepted from anyone. I can report that 47 people died from Tylenol. Did they die? Who knows. Did they exist in the first place? Who knows. Did Tylenol just cause 47 deaths? Probably not. But suddenly VAERS says it did.
Most of the reports that go into VAERS are simply a matter of “a person got a vaccine and then later some bad event happened.” They aren’t people maliciously messing with the system; it’s simply a matter of an event happened some time after the fact. If Grandma Jones gets a vaccine today, slips on some ice and falls and breaks her hip a week from now, contracts pneumonia while in the hospital from that, and then dies, did the vaccine kill her? No, but her death is absolutely listed in VAERS. Sometimes older folks die. These vaccines are being given to the elderly first. 1,099? I’m surprised it’s not higher.
