Deep vein thrombosis (#DVT), a blood clot in a deep vein, can travel to the lungs, leading to a pulmonary embolism (#PE). Symptoms of PE include difficulty breathing and chest pain. Contact your doctor if experiencing symptoms—this is no time to wait.— Pfizer Inc. (@pfizer) February 14, 2022
People get DVT from sitting still too long (like on long flights).
They’ll say it’s a “common side effect” of lots of medications, and should not necessarily be tied to their shots.
According to this press release from the corporate core of Pharma Fascism, the cause of the clots is mysterious and unknowable, and should not be linked to the thing that millions of people around the world accurately refer to as The Clot Shot.
It is a condition that can be fatal for younger athletes who might not sense a need for prompt treatment and try instead to work through it.
In my case, as a senior in good shape, I had the double PE but no symptoms other than a nagging swelling in one lower leg. My GP (almost) freaked out and sent me directly to the ER where I spent the next 3 days under the care of specialists. ("No, don't go home to get a bag, just go.")
