But it's slowly starting to catch up.
We present autopsy findings of a 22-year-old man who developed chest pain 5 days after the first dose of the BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine and died 7 hours later. Histological examination of the heart revealed isolated atrial myocarditis, with neutrophil and histiocyte predominance. Immunohistochemical C4d staining revealed scattered single-cell necrosis of myocytes which was not accompanied by inflammatory infiltrates. Extensive contraction band necrosis was observed in the atria and ventricles. There was no evidence of microthrombosis or infection in the heart and other organs.
The primary cause of death was determined to be myocarditis, causally-associated with the BNT162b2 vaccine.https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/labs/pmc/a ... n_sectitle
Again, one case does not a trend make. However, there is growing body of evidence of a link of myocarditis to COVID vaccine. That is how Science works, by gathering evidence and learning from the evidence. That is what I meant by a HUGE Science Experiment ongoing now. NOTE that this link was not evident in trials.
Also note, from the same source saxi quotes:
INTRODUCTION
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, which started in January 2020 has affected people worldwide. Rapid vaccine development has enabled COVID-19 prevention. Two mRNA COVID-19 vaccines, BNT162b2 (Pfizer-BioNTech) and mRNA-1273 (Moderna) demonstrated safety and efficacy in clinical trials, and were granted emergency use authorization by the US Food and Drug Administration in December 2020.1,2 As the number of people vaccinated against COVID-19 has increased, there have been multiple reports of myocarditis as an adverse event following immunization,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12 which was not observed in clinical trials.
Keep track of actual deaths linked to myocarditis to this COVID vaccine. Also note the number of other deaths caused or even possibly linked to the COVID vaccines. So far there are very few. saxi has searched far and wide and found how many? 15? 20? Compare that to how many lives were SAVED due to the COVID vaccines. That is a large part of CBA, Cost Benefit Analysis, that saxi cannot seem to grasp. The risk of death caused by the vaccines are SMALL compared to the deaths prevented. He wants to present only one side, only highlighting the few deaths caused or even tenuously linked to a COVID vaccine. He is myopic and fails to see or even acknowledge the big picture.
saxi has an agenda and keeps pumping out obfuscation to convince a few to justify their opposition to the vaccines. He is attempting to sow seeds of fear and mistrust. He attempts to mislead. He continues to lie. He attempts to peddle FAKE NEWS.
saxi, CC's resident Chicken Little (or Henny Penny) continues to SCREAM, figuratively, "The Sky is Falling..!"
The sky is falling
A groundless or absurd conviction that some catastrophic consequence is imminent or underway.
Some economists will try to convince you that the sky is falling, when in reality this downturn is just a normal market adjustment.
Look, I know you're worried about this disruption to the supply chain, but you're acting as if the sky's falling or something!
sky is falling, the
An absurd belief that disaster is imminent. The term comes from a fable about a chicken who believes the sky is fallingwhen an acorn falls on its head. In various versions, the chicken is called “chicken little” or “henny penny.” Many novels, films, and songs with the title “The Sky Is Falling” have been issued, as well as versions of the story. Among them is a 1943 Walt Disney film, Chicken Little, and a book, The Remarkable Story of Chicken Little, published in 1865. The phrase, now a cliché, remains current. The New York Times op ed page had a piece by Charles M. Blow about social networking that used it: “I am by no means a woe-is-us, sky-is-falling, evil-is-the Internet type” (June 12, 2010).
https://idioms.thefreedictionary.com/sky+is+fallingNote the pattern: saxi posts a small fact and then claims "The Sky is Falling." I refute that claim. He ignores my refutation, nearly always, and instead posts another small fact or even offers a misleading conclusion. I refute that. I consistently show that saxi offers almost always obfuscation, misleading information, and actual LIES, that I document.
BOTTOM LINE: saxi is FULL of POOP Or, since dds prefers that I do not use large font or caps: saxi is full of shit.
