Rasmussen Survey: Millions Experienced COVID-19 Vaccine Side Effects
Rasmussen Reports ^ | 11/21/2025

Posted on 11/21/2025 10:43:08 AM PST by SeekAndFind

More than a third of Americans who were vaccinated against COVID-19 say they had side effects from the shot, and nearly half suspect the vaccines killed many patients,

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 68% of American Adults say they got a COVID-19 vaccination, and a majority (60%) of vaccinated adults report no side effects from the vaccine. However, 26% say they had minor side effects and 10% reported major side effects from the vaccine. Based on a U.S. adult population of 258 million, this would mean 63 million had at least some side effects from the COVID-19 vaccine, including more than 17 million who experienced major side effects. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

Among all American Adults (including those who didn’t get vaccinated against COVID-19), 46% believe it is likely that side effects of COVID-19 vaccines have caused a significant number of unexplained deaths – down from 55% in September 2024 – including 25% who say it’s Very Likely. Forty-four percent (44%) now don’t think a significant number of deaths have been caused by vaccine side effects, including 20% who believe it’s Not At All Likely. Another 12% are not sure.

The survey of 1,292 American Adults was conducted on November 10-12, 2024 by Rasmussen Reports. The margin of sampling error is +/- 3 percentage points with a 95% level of confidence. Field work for all Rasmussen Reports surveys is conducted by Pulse Opinion Research, LLC. See methodology.

Those who didn’t get the COVID-19 vaccine are more likely to suspect it had deadly side effects. Seventy percent (70%) of those who weren’t vaccinated, compared to 36% of those who did get the shot, consider it at least somewhat likely that side effects of COVID-19 vaccines have caused a significant number of unexplained deaths.

Among those who were vaccinated, 85% of those who reported major side effects think it’s at least somewhat likely that COVID-19 vaccines caused a significant number of deaths. By comparison, 69% of those who reported no side effects from the vaccine consider it unlikely that COVID-19 vaccines caused a significant number of deaths.

Slightly more men (72%) than women (66%) got vaccinated against COVID-19 during the pandemic, and more men (12%) than women (8%) report experiencing major side effects from the shot. However, more women (49%) than men (43%) consider it at least somewhat likely that side effects of COVID-19 vaccines have caused a significant number of unexplained deaths.

Older voters are most likely to have been vaccinated against COVID-19 during the pandemic, and less likely to say they experienced side effects. Twenty-two percent (22%) of men under 40 say they experienced major side effects from the vaccine, compared to just seven percent (7%) of women 40 and older.

Forty-two percent (42%) of whites, 46% of blacks, 53% of Hispanics and 63% of other minorities believe it is at least somewhat likely that side effects of COVID-19 vaccines have caused a significant number of unexplained deaths. Hispanics are most likely to have gotten the COVID-19 vaccine during the pandemic, and also most likely to report having experienced major side effects from the shot.

Fifty-seven percent (57%) of Americans with annual incomes between $30,000-$50,000 say it’s likelythat COVID-19 vaccines caused many deaths, compared to just 36% of those with annual incomes over $200,000 who say the same.

The cost of living – particularly higher grocery prices – continues to worry most Americans.

The dangerous side-effects of the Covid vax should be one of the biggest stories in human history, but it barely gets mentioned.

I hope one day we will know the whole story behind COVID and the Clot shots, but I doubt it will be told in my lifetime.

Everything involved shouts an intended mass culling of the human race.

Fauci, gain of function and the Wuhan Virology Lab.

Telling infected and ill patients to stay home until they are in respiratory distress.

Illegally coercing employees to take a drug (untested really is just an added violations of law).

Forcing infected seniors into nursing homes.

Telling families that they can't visit their families in the hospital.

Forcing the closing of businesses, except liquor stores.

Oddly big box stores were permitted to stay open. (The Rich always get special treatment during a big government hoax)

Remdesivir, a drug know for deadly side effects was approved for COVID.

The required change in cause of death of a Death Certificate for anyone who died with a COVID infection to Died Of COVID.

Forcing the closing of non-hospital health care facilities. This delayed the diagnosis and treatment of many diseases.

I am sure that I am not remembering everything but these things are enough for me to think that the entire COVID mess was engineered for two things Obscene Profits and maximized death. Untreated until it was too late disease and rampant depression leading to suicide (isolation and alcoholism).

Here's another one to add to the list:

The suppression of hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin as effective treatments of Covid.

My record always states I’m a shot short because of that booster, which is something I don’t need, and it wasn’t required at my job prior to my retirement. I just got the flu shot, I never have any trouble with tho- [clunk!]

Yes

Or any other possible treatment.

No recommendation of Vitamins D, C and Zinc as a preventative.

They want every possible person to be sick.

They had a running total on the news every night with an infection map to keep everyone living in fear.

COVID was a psy-op from the beginning.

My wife and I did not take the jab.

We did not get COVID, we both know couples who took the Covid Shots. One of the couples died within weeks of each other. The other couple is still alive, but they are seldom seen in public, the wife had a stroke after the Jab. Both are not healthy.

Just saying.

I will be 78 next month. Take no prescription meds and never go to the doctor. Can only remember 1 year that I met my Copay. So Medicare loves me, My supplemental insurance is 170 per month.

Everything with Insurance attached to it is a scam.

The Covid story certainly is a big one with many strange threads. Last year I spoke with someone who had been in the home of a wealthy Pfizer CEO where they were celebrating the upcoming approval of their vaccine. They were saying that once certain things were in place they would all be rich. However they all said they would NEVER take this vaccine. I suspect “certain things” was approval to use our tax money to pay for the millions of shots that people would receive “free.”

However the evil started when Trump’s white House received the March 23, 2020, letter from Dr. Zelenko described the use of Hydroxycloriquine as an IONOPHORE to help get virus stopper, ZINC into infected cells. It was essential to use this very early in the infection phase before the virus had used up all the zinc and entered many cells. The third item recommended was the antibiotic Azithromycin (later changed to Doxycycline as safer) to protect from bacteria and the deadly cytochine storms that attacked the lungs. For a little more than a week Trump and Fauci spoke about this 3 part treatment/cure. Then for some reason ZINC was never mentioned again. But in early May Dr. Fauci said NIH would do a study of hospitalized veterans of HCQ and Azithromycine, no mention of ZINC, and not using on early infection. A plan for failure. Soon thereafter Fauci announced the launching of Remdesivir, at a subsidized cost of $3,000 per treatment course. It had various dangerous side effects and was not very effective as treatment. I think Trump eventually realized he had been tricked as I heard him mutter with an angry look he had taken zinc, after explaining his use of Remdesivir, monoclonal antibodies and other high cost treatments at Walter Read Hospital. This statement was what he said as walking from the helicopter into the White House. How was he convinced to avoid this $20 dollar 3 part early treatment which was later evaluated to reduce deaths by at least 80%.

In 2020 I tried at least 6 times to post information about the use of HCQ and zinc to stop the Covid virus growth at AOL articles. There I was prevented for “failing to follow community standards”, or something like that. These simple scientific statements were not allowed while at the same times all kinds of nasty comments about Trump or Biden appeared in the comments.

This link illustrates some of the truth conflict: https://www.cbsnews.com/newyork/news/president-trumps-hydroxychloroquine-revelation-stirs-debate/

I am not sure if the 3/23/20 letter by Dr. Zelenko still exists on Google, it did not come right up this time when I looked. Other stories worth finding are a study in Turkey in 2021 which used the exact Zelenko 3 part Protocol, and 1,000 IU of Vitamin D3. The participants were separated into 2 groups, one taking the above treatment, and to other half receiving 24 grams of IV Vitamin C for 5 days in addition. There was only 1 death in around 240 participants. When preliminary lab tests were reviewed after the study, researchers were surprised to discover NO subjects had adequate Vitamin D levels. About 1/2 were insufficient, and the rest deficient. The one death was extremely deficient in D. The half that received the high dose IV Vitamin C spent on average 3 fewer weeks in the hospital. I had seen claims that Remdesivir reduced hospital stays by 3 days.

Another very interesting story was the massive use of Ivermectin in the Indian state of Utter Pradesh, population around 240 million in 2021. I tried for weeks to find the exact formula that had been used for treatment. I finally found the complete description in a small US publication called Desert Review. A US doctor described it as using the basic Zelenko Protocol, except using Ivermectin instead of HCQ as the IONOPHORE for ZINC, also a blood oxygen measurement device, some mild pain medication, and several other supportive articles. Teams of health workers visited over 80 thousand villages and treated everyone with symptoms and gave them the treatment packet. Suddenly UP had almost no Covid infections and this was before many had been vaccinated. Leader Modi praised this success, but did not mention Ivermectin or Zinc as a factor. Then he left for a meeting in the US with Biden, and a major business (I think Blackwater, or something like that). Apparently, he either did not convey information about the Uttar Pradesh success, or was convinced to not mention it in detail.

The third item of special interest is the small study of the IgG immune system, factors 1 thru 4, which shows how repeat Covid vaccinations change the percentage of 1 thru 4 factors to make the IgG immune system less or much less effective as a protection depending on individual differences. For the people in whom the change in factor 4 was highest, they were the only vaccinated people who caught Covid and were sick.

So much to look for, but I no longer have the time, so good luck in your own searches.
