Amid increasing calls for suspension of the use of mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccines produced by companies such as Pfizer, especially among elderly people, the situation in Norway has escalated significantly as the Scandi nation has now registered a total of 29 deaths among people over the age of 75 who’ve had their first COVID-19 vaccination shot.
As Bloomberg reports, this adds six to the number of known fatalities in Norway, and also lowers the age group thought to be affected from 80.
Until Friday, Pfizer/BioNTech was the only vaccine available in Norway, and “all deaths are thus linked to this vaccine,” the Norwegian Medicines Agency said in a written response to Bloomberg on Saturday.
“There are 13 deaths that have been assessed, and we are aware of another 16 deaths that are currently being assessed,” the agency said.
All the reported deaths related to “elderly people with serious basic disorders,” it said.
“Most people have experienced the expected side effects of the vaccine, such as nausea and vomiting, fever, local reactions at the injection site, and worsening of their underlying condition.”
Norway’s experience has prompted the country to suggest that Covid-19 vaccines may be too risky for the very old and terminally ill... the exact group that 'the science' shows are actually at risk from this virus.
Pfizer and BioNTech are working with the Norwegian regulator to investigate the deaths in Norway, Pfizer said in an e-mailed statement. The agency found that “the number of incidents so far is not alarming, and in line with expectations,” Pfizer said.
However, it's not just Norway as The Epoch Times' Zachary Stieber reports that fifty-five people in the United States have died after receiving a COVID-19 vaccine, according to reports submitted to a federal system.
Deaths have occurred among people receiving both the Moderna and the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccines, according to the reports.
In some cases, patients died within days of receiving a COVID-19 vaccine.
One man, a 66-year-old senior home resident in Colorado, was sleepy and stayed in bed a day after getting Moderna’s vaccine. Early the next morning, on Christmas Day, the resident “was observed in bed lying still, pale, eyes half open and foam coming from mouth and unresponsive,” the VAERS report states. “He was not breathing and with no pulse.”
In another case, a 93-year-old South Dakota man was injected with the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine on Jan. 4 around 11 a.m. About two hours later, he said he was tired and couldn’t continue with the physical therapy he was doing any longer. He was taken back to his room, where he said his legs felt heavy. Soon after, he stopped breathing. A nurse declared a do-not-resuscitate order.
In addition to the deaths, people have reported 96 life-threatening events following COVID-19 vaccinations, as well as 24 permanent disabilities, 225 hospitalizations, and 1,388 emergency room visits.
It's not just the old and frail, in Israel, which proudly lays claim to the greatest vaccination effort in the world (largest percentage of the population inoculated),
As RT reports, at least 13 Israelis have experienced facial paralysis after being administered the Pfizer Covid-19 vaccine, a month after the US Food and Drug Administration reported similar issues but said they weren’t linked to the jab.
Israeli outlet Ynet reported, citing the Health Ministry, that officials believe the number of such cases could be higher.
“For at least 28 hours I walked around with it [facial paralysis],” one person who had the side effect told Ynet.
“I can't say it was completely gone afterwards, but other than that I had no other pains, except a minor pain where the injection was, but there was nothing beyond that.”
Ynet quoted Prof. Galia Rahav, director of the Infectious Diseases Unit at Sheba Medical Center, who said she did not feel “comfortable” with administering the second dose to someone who had received the first jab and subsequently suffered from paralysis.
“No one knows if this is connected to the vaccine or not. That's why I would refrain from giving a second dose to someone who suffered from paralysis after the first dose,” she told the outlet.
Finally, as we noted yesterday following the news of rising post-vaccination deaths in Noway, health experts from Wuhan, China, called on Norway and other countries to suspend the use of mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccines produced by companies such as Pfizer, especially among elderly people.
China's Global Times reports Chinese experts said the death incident should be assessed cautiously to understand whether the death was caused by vaccines or other preexisting conditions of these individuals.
Yang Zhanqiu, a virologist from Wuhan University, told the Global Times on Friday that the death incident, if proven to be caused by the vaccines, showed that the effect of the Pfizer vaccine and other mRNA vaccines is not as good as expected, as the main purpose of mRNA vaccines is to heal patients.
...
A Beijing-based immunologist, who requested anonymity, told the Global Times on Friday that the world should suspend the use of the mRNA COVID-19 vaccine represented by Pfizer, as this new technology has not proven safety in large-scale use or in preventing any infectious diseases.
Older people, especially those over 80, should not be recommended to receive any COVID-19 vaccine, he said.
All of which is a problem since it is the elderly who are at most risk (quite frankly at any real risk at all) and thus who need the protection the most.
The Chinese health experts instead say that the most elderly and frail should be recommended to take medicines to improve their immune system.
Of course, one cannot help but note the irony of scientists from the source of the plague that has killed millions around the world and destroyed lives/economies almost everywhere, is now calling for the cessation of the process to protect against the plague.
Does this mean the Media will be giving the Credit for the Vaccine development back to Trump now?
Read where biden will have the FEMA and National Guard giving the vaccines.
My attorney seems to think there will be a card or some id for the takers.
So not sure what that will entail. Can we enter a retail outlet without it? Can we vote without it? Etc,etc.
I see you just joined four days ago.
What percentage is 400,000 of 320 million?
How many people die from the flu every year?
I see the flu is way down this year.
I sure hope they’re not counting Covid deaths as the flu!
And with those large numbers, some people die of unrelated problems...the immune response takes 7 to 14 days to start, so developing problems or dying before then are things unrelated, such as those who come down with covid right after the shot, but who probably had been exposed a week earlier.
But of course, rational explanations don't get headlines.
How many people have been vaccinated?
RE: How many people have been vaccinated?
35 million in the world so far. See here:
https://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/covid-vaccine-tracker-global-distribution/
The real problems may start in the next year. You take my dose.
If 35M have been vaccinated we would expect about 600-700 of them die.
In the U.S. 55 dead after vaccination would correspond to 2.9M vaccinated given standard death rates.
Pfizer had over 30,000 human test subjects.
Guess you missed that little bit of news.
It happens when your news comes from anti-vaxxer sources only.
They forget to report things that ruin their narrative.
RE: If 35M have been vaccinated we would expect about 600-700 of them die.
I actually made a typo, as per Bloomberg, the cite I just referred to, it’s actually 39.7 Million as of today ( based on their tracker ).
See here:
https://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/covid-vaccine-tracker-global-distribution/
The USA, as per Bloomberg has already administered 13.7 Million doses.
That.....is just terrifying.
Right now at the Indian Health Service, theyve been giving the Pfizer vaccine. I may be the only one who didnt take it. Its optional now since it is not an FDA fully approved vaccine. People who get it have a shot record but no card or ID. Not yet but that could happen. Reminds me of the mark of the beast.
RC it did/does me too!
A fore runner paving the way for the real thing to come.
BTW, you happen to live in the Four Corners area?
Aha, as I began reading, I immediately saw the name Bloomburg.
Regardless of scare stories like this, I’m going to get the vaccination as soon as possible. Unfortunately, there are a lot of people who also disagree with Doomburg in front of me.
“55 people have died out of 11.1 million vaccinated?”
“Did they die BECAUSE of the vaccine? Or did they die from other conditions?”
Unfortunately, the vaccines are only effective against COVID, and not death in general.
Even after receiving the vaccine, they will remain mortal, and other things can and will still kill them.
Statistically, any group of millions of elderly people will have some people die every day.
Animal testing was done.
In what medical journal did they publish the results?
"The investigational vaccine known as mRNA-1273 protected mice from infection with SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, according to research published today in Nature. Scientists at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), part of the National Institutes of Health, and the biotechnology company Moderna, based in Cambridge, Massachusetts, along with collaborators from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville, and the University of Texas at Austin conducted the preclinical research."
KS Corbett et al. SARS-CoV-2 mRNA Vaccine Development Enabled by Prototype Pathogen Preparedness. Nature DOI: 10.1038/s41586-020-2622-0 (2020).
They also did non-human primate testing, you can read about that Here
KS Corbett et al. Evaluation of the mRNA-1273 vaccine against SARS-CoV-2 in nonhuman primates. New England Journal of Medicine DOI: 10.1056/NEJMoa2024671 (2020).
That's also a well respected medical journal, but you knew that right?
So animal testing was done, and published in peer reviewed medical journals.
I do not trust one thing that comes out of that mans's mouth.
Try better next time.
