I wish this article reported the denominator. 25 out of how many doses administered? What is the baseline % of people who should have gotten thrombosis naturally in the last 3 months (since doses started being administered).<p>Perhaps the answer is that this is a real risk. But the public should be taught to think in relativistic ways. It's not that hard if every newspaper always did it as reinforcement.
Egads, what a terrible source. Can the mods please replace that with (say) the FT?<p><a href="https://www.ft.com/content/2e52a5b0-29b9-4c7e-8cfb-97bf8edea865" rel="nofollow">https://www.ft.com/content/2e52a5b0-29b9-4c7e-8cfb-97bf8edea...</a><p>The actual press release is here, but the details of the new reports are buried far down the page:<p><a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/coronavirus-covid-19-vaccine-adverse-reactions/coronavirus-vaccine-summary-of-yellow-card-reporting" rel="nofollow">https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/coronavirus-covid...</a>
Thrombosis affects mainly people under-55s. I wonder if now that younger people are getting the vaccine, it will increase the numbers.
Mostly seniors have been vaccinated in the UK, which might explain why they've seen way fewer cases than continental Europe.
Some people here have written software under a time crunch, and under a “management desired result” ...<p>Should we not be surprised with bugs in this vaccine deployment?
