Actually when I got the Pfizer shot a few weeks ago, I was aware of the blood clot issue. It is worrisome as my family carries a gene that causes spontaneous clots.
WHAT SHOULD YOU MENTION TO YOUR VACCINATION PROVIDER BEFORE
YOU GET THE PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE?
Tell the vaccination provider about all of your medical conditions, including if
you:
• have any allergies
• have a fever
• have a bleeding disorder or are on a blood thinner (this one isn’t because of hemophilia...it is for the blood disorders that cause spontaneous clots)
• are immunocompromised or are on a medicine that affects your immune system
• are pregnant or plan to become pregnant
• are breastfeeding
• have received another COVID-19 vaccine
It is of note they do not list blood clots in the “reported” side effects.
Yes. It is the second shot that is the issue. Of which I won’t be getting.
They are finding the first shot may be sufficient as it is over 80% effective even after 6 months.
