Angry posts with the hashtag #Sorry that vaccination is skyrocketing on social media. What’s behind the action?
With 21,900 tweets in a very short time the hashtag #I regret the vaccination conquered Twitter on Tuesday – and there are thousands of such posts on other social networks as well. Their content is surprisingly similar: users report that, after much deliberation, they decided to get vaccinated against the crown in recent months and reportedly complained about the very serious side effects of vaccination since then, up to and including the inability to work. .
But is it really so? In any case, the reports shouldn’t be taken at face value – because several users also hijacked the hashtag to discover vaccines. Many presumably unvaccinated users seem to report alleged harm from vaccination while also refuting themselves – either by admitting they are not vaccinated, or with an absurd time sequence because they report they were vaccinated a few days ago and now months ago from the harm from the vaccine. vaccination.
“Then we would have a very good vaccination rate”
“July 25: Unvaccinated. July 31: Worst Vaccination Damage in Months. Can you Dullys spread your lies in a less obvious way? Thanks,” writes user “The One with the K” and posts corresponding texts from another user as proof. “Funny how many people under #I regret the vaccination write that they were vaccinated, although it is clear from previous statements that they were never vaccinated. Ridiculous. #I don’t regret the vaccination. I had COVID, a light course, I almost had no vaccine reaction, everything was fine”, writes another.
“If everyone were really vaccinated, the unvaccinated under #I regret the vaccination lament about the imagined harms of vaccination, we would have a very good vaccination rate,” jokes “Mareile” about the entries. And “John Constantine” writes, “So all these people who use the hashtag #I regret the vaccination Tweet side effects, but you haven’t been vaccinated in a few days, I believe you’re sick.” Also discussed are bizarre “vaccination side effects” from users, such as alleged herniated discs.
All made up? no
Does this mean that all the harms of vaccines have already been invented? no While the sheer number of posts that are appearing now raises questions, some serious side effects have been documented by the Federal Office of Health Care Security (BASG). The most recent report “On Reports of Suspected Side Effects After Vaccines for Protection Against COVID-19” documents the period from December 27, 2020 to July 22, 2022. It contains a total of 51,026 reports of suspected side effects related to a crown vaccination – with a total of 18,821,781 vaccinations.
The median age is interesting: suspected side effects are mostly reported by people aged 18 to 44 years (27,328), followed by those aged 45 to 64 (16,842). Far more women (33,888) than men (16,968) also report suspected side effects of vaccination. Broken down, 271 side effects are reported per 100,000 vaccinations. The main adverse reactions reported are headache (20,770), fever (19,025), pain at the vaccination site (14,558), fatigue (14,178) and joint pain (10,618).
Serious side effects, ie those that are fatal or life threatening, require hospitalization or lead to disability or permanent disability, are also listed. “The Federal Office for Health Care Security (BASG) has recorded 290 deaths close to a COVID-19 vaccination (224 BioNTech/Pfizer, 26 Moderna, 36 AstraZeneca and 4 Janssen). the report.
According to the report, 20 people who died were vaccinated during the incubation period of a COVID-19 disease. “34 others had previous serious illnesses that were likely the cause of death.” According to BASG, in the age group of 12 to 15 years, a vaccination (BioNTech/Pfizer) resulted in circulatory arrest, the cause of death has not yet been clarified. “Another 226 cases (166 BioNTech/Pfizer, 25 Moderna, 32 AstraZeneca and 3 Janssen) are still being clarified or no additional information has been provided. Investigations into whether there is a link to vaccination are ongoing,” says BASG.
2,678 vaccinated had to go to the hospital
