According to a report submitted to a federal system, 55 people in the United States have died after being vaccinated against the virus SARS-CoV-2 (CCP virus, covi, novel coronavirus) / disease covid (short for COVID-19, novel coronavirus pneumonia). However, whether these deaths were caused by the vaccine is still under investigation. The report showed that there were deaths among people who received the Moderna vaccine and Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine. The "Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System" (VAERS) is a federal database. The system is passive, which means that reports will not be collected automatically and must be submitted. VAERS reports can be submitted by anyone, including medical service providers, patients or family members. The website of the reporting system suggests that VAERS reports “often lack details and may sometimes contain incorrect information.” However, reports on VAERS “only account for a small percentage of actual adverse events,” although it is believed that serious incidents are underreported. The situation is less common. In some cases, patients died within a few days of receiving the SARS-CoV-2 vaccines. The VAERS report shows that in one incident, a 66-year-old resident of Colorado, one day after receiving the Moderna vaccine, he was sleepy and lying in bed. Early the next morning, on Christmas Day, the man "was found lying motionless in bed, his face was pale, his eyes were half-open, foam was flowing out of his mouth, and there was no response", "he had no breathing, no pulse." In another case, a 93-year-old South Dakota man was injected with the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine at around 11 am on January 4. About two hours later, he said he was very tired and could no longer do physical therapy. He was taken back to the room and he said that his legs felt heavy. Before long, he stopped breathing. A nurse announced the "do-not-resuscitate" order. Moderna and Pfizer did not respond to requests for comment. Abigail Capobianco, a spokesperson for the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), told The Epoch Times via email that any reports of deaths after vaccination will be handled by the FDA and the CDC that jointly conducted a "rapid and rigorous investigation." She said that officials of various institutions cooperate with medical service providers to obtain medical history and clinical follow-up information, and conduct clinical case reviews. She added, "It should be noted that it is generally impossible to find out whether the vaccine caused the adverse event from the VAERS data." Health officials on the VAERS website cautioned that reporting to the system does not prove to be an adverse event caused by the vaccine. The system does not require the reporter to prove whether the vaccine caused an adverse event. In addition to deaths, people have reported 96 life-threatening events after COVID-19 vaccination, as well as 24 permanent disability, 225 hospitalizations, and 1388 emergency cases. Neither the CDC nor the FDA has a central database for reporting adverse events. On January 6, Nancy Messonnier, director of the CDC National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases, said that the incidence of severe allergic reactions to the COVID-19 vaccine was 11.1 times per million vaccination, while the flu vaccine corresponds to The figure is 1.3 vaccination per million. As of January 15, 10.5 million Americans have been vaccinated against the CCP virus. Federal health officials said they are investigating adverse events, but these vaccines are still safe to vaccinate. "These are safe and effective vaccines. We have good data to prove this." Mesonier said. Gregory Michael, a 56-year-old medical worker at Mount Sinai Medical Center in Miami, Florida, was vaccinated on December 18, 2020. He died 16 days later. This death caused people's attention. Michael's wife Heidi Neckelmann said on Facebook that her husband was "very healthy" before the vaccination. She said that he was sent to the intensive care unit and was diagnosed with acute idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura ((ITP), caused by a vaccine reaction. Michael died eventually. "He is an advocate for vaccines, which is why he will vaccinate himself," Neckerman wrote. "I believe people should be aware that side effects can happen. It (vaccine) is not for everyone. All are beneficial. In this case, it destroyed a beautiful life, a perfect family, and affected many people in the society. Don’t let his death go to waste, please make this information news to save more life." Pfizer told the news media in a statement that there is currently no evidence of a link between the death and its vaccine. "Pfizer and BioNTech realized that a medical worker died 16 days after receiving the first dose of BNT162b2," Pfizer said in a statement. "This is a very unusual clinical case with severe thrombocytopenia. This condition reduces the body’s ability to clot and prevent internal bleeding." "We are actively investigating this case, but we currently do not think there is any direct connection with the vaccine." The company added, "In our clinical trials, post-marketing experience, or mRNA vaccine platform, no relevant information has been found so far. Safety signal. To date, millions of people have been vaccinated and we are closely monitoring all adverse events in individuals receiving our vaccine." A Pfizer spokesperson told The Epoch Times via email earlier this month that the company "closely monitors all reports after vaccination." Modena has not yet responded to The Epoch Times’ request for comment. Norway has changed its SARS-CoV-2 vaccination guidelines, instructing not to vaccinate "very weak" people. Out of 23 reported deaths, there were 13 confirmed deaths from the vaccines after autopsy in the country.
