‘Nocebo’ Effect Blamed for Two-Thirds of COVID Vaccine Symptoms: Study
New York Post ^ | January 20, 202 | Hannah Sparks

For those who suffered side effects following COVID vaccination, the adverse symptoms were likely well worth it — even if they didn’t really have to experience them.

According to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, some 77% of those who received a dose of either vaccine from Pfizer, Moderna or Johnson & Johnson reported at least one non-local symptom soon after the jab, such as headache, fever, fatigue and muscle pain.

But a new study published in the journal JAMA Network Open on Tuesday has revealed that nearly two-thirds of those symptoms were likely self-induced via what researchers are calling the “nocebo” effect. Scientists at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston found that many volunteers in vaccine control groups — those who unknowingly received an inert, placebo vaccine — claimed to have suffered the same flu-like symptoms as their vaccinated cohorts.

Yes

All the blood clots and heart attacks and strokes from the clots, and the myocarditis cases

Thats all nocebo effects

Well it was a valiant attempt to blame the people themselves for their adverse effects

But the increasingly large pile of dead bodies from the death shots arsnt going to go bury themselves, see ya

Evidence based medicine= you mean nothing individually and i am not here to treat you. I am here to impose an algorithm of care on the patient.
At some point it becomes an intentional negligence.

I guess they had to come up with something regardless of how ridiculous it is.

I was in a control group myself. I drank 10 oz of Black Jack Daniels every night for three days and had similar symptoms as those that received the genetic therapy injection. Each morning I experienced headaches, tiredness, anxiety, etc.

The good news is those that got the kill shot also contracted COVID. I am COVID free and still relying on my therapeutic although I have cut back on the amount. //sarc off//

The BS and gaslighting continue. My oldest daughter, a liberal with no qualms about the vaccines, and whom I have never argued with on the topic, experienced horrible headaches, unlike anything she had ever experienced, after her booster.

Now, let them explain the other side effects including strokes, heart attacks, etc.

I think she would be reluctant to take another booster; it spooked her. And with even the MSM describing omicron as generally mild, that might reinforce her view.

You are good at figuring out when it’s pointless to argue.

No, she didn't. She just thought she did.

Here’s their answer to your daughter.
But for the bona fide vaccine group, their reporting of systemic reaction shot up to 61%, and injection site effects sprang to 73%. Researchers believe this may be the outcome of participants anticipating symptoms for their second dose, prompting a psychosomatic response that matched their expectations.

There was once the promise of individualized healthcare where your genetic makeup and ongoing biochemical processes potentially unique to you and your body would be studied and a unique treatment for your conditions proscribed.

Now we have bureaucratic nationalized medicine forced on all of us. Lately this has descended into quackery.

I’d tell her that it’s obviously not from the vaccine, so what else recently changed?

No issues can ever legitimately identified from the vaccine.
