Hundreds Sent to Emergency Room After Getting COVID-19 Vaccines
By Zachary Stieber
6-7 minutes
Over 1,000 people injected with a new COVID-19 vaccine have experienced an adverse event, with hundreds being taken to emergency rooms.
One patient in Michigan on Dec. 16, 2020, became lightheaded and dizzy, and experienced chest tightness and hand tingling. She repeatedly told doctors, “I think I am having a panic attack.” She was sent to the emergency room for evaluation.
That’s one of 308 reports from patients sent to hospital emergency rooms documented on the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS). That represents 0.0064 percent of the total vaccinations done, 4.8 million, as of Jan. 5.
In other cases, patients experienced nausea, tremors, stabbing pain, and wheezing.
In one report, a 33-year-old male in Georgia reported receiving Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine on Dec. 17, 2020.
“I initially had to sit down for about 15 min and felt my mouth dry, my tongue was kind of tingling, not swollen. I was checked for anaphylactic shock. I felt like an adrenaline shock, and felt my heart racing, my [blood pressure] was high—stayed in the ER for an hour for observation. I felt the same kind of sensation when I had COVID in July. This morning, had chills early in the morning around 1 a.m. but it is all gone now,” he wrote.
VAERS was established in 1990 to serve as an early warning system to detect possible safety problems in U.S.-licensed vaccines. It’s managed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Anyone can report an adverse event to the system.
“VAERS is not designed to determine if a vaccine caused a health problem, but is especially useful for detecting unusual or unexpected patterns of adverse event reporting that might indicate a possible safety problem with a vaccine. This way, VAERS can provide CDC and FDA with valuable information that additional work and evaluation is necessary to further assess a possible safety concern,” the system’s website states.
Issues with the newly approved COVID-19 vaccines began almost immediately after they started being administered. A healthcare worker at Bartlett Regional Hospital in Alaska suffered a suspected severe allergic reaction, or anaphylaxis, after receiving Pfizer’s vaccine. She was taken to the emergency room and spent several nights there before being discharged.
Thousands of people self-reported being unable to work or perform daily activities, or required care from a health care professional, after getting one of the doses from the first tranche.
The FDA’s Adverse Event Reporting System hasn’t been updated to include data for the last quarter of 2020 yet.

A CDC spokeswoman told The Epoch Times late last month that the agency was working on a plan for reporting adverse reactions to the COVID-19 vaccines. She hasn’t responded to inquiries this month.
The CDC and FDA didn’t respond to queries about the hundreds who, according to VAERS, have been sent to emergency rooms. The system has received reports of 1,156 total adverse events. Of those, 17 have been “life threatening” and two have led to a “permanent disability.”
A Pfizer spokeswoman told The Epoch Times in an emailed statement on December 2020 that the company was monitoring reports of possible allergic reactions.
“The prescribing information has a clear warning/precaution that appropriate medical treatment and supervision should always be readily available in case of a rare anaphylactic event following the administration of the vaccine,” she added.
In a statement Tuesday, a spokeswoman said the company closely monitors “all reports following vaccination including any individual with a confirmed diagnosis of the COVID-19 infection or symptoms, adding: “We will review all available information on cases and all reports of any confirmed events following vaccination.”
Moderna hasn’t responded to requests for comment on the matter.
People with allergies to any components of the vaccines should not get them, according to federal health guidance. Federal agencies haven’t given an update on investigations into severe adverse reactions this month.
In guidance updated just before the end of the year, the CDC said anyone who experienced an allergic reaction after getting one of the vaccines should not get a second dose. The vaccines are given in two doses spaced apart by three weeks. The agency also said anyone allergic to Polysorbate, which is not a component of either vaccine, or PEG should not get one of the vaccines.
Still, health officials have said the vaccines are safe for most people and have encouraged many Americans to get one. They’ve also said the vaccines aren’t necessarily causing the adverse reactions.
“Right now there are scattered reports. But remember, many of these are tingling and an elevated heart rate. This could be hyperventilation around the vaccine. That does not necessarily mean it’s a vaccine problem,” Adm. Brett Giroir, assistant secretary for health and part of the White House Coronavirus Task Force, said during a television appearance last month.
In a pre-proof published on Dec. 31, a team led by all rgists at Massachusetts General Hospital said allergic reactions generally happen at a rate of 1.31 cases per million vaccine doses. Reactions are frequently attributed to inactive ingredients in vaccines, they said. They recommended people administering vaccines ask about the history of severe allergic reactions. If people answer a certain number of questions in the affirmative, they should be skin-tested for PEG. If they test positive for that, they shouldn’t get one of the new vaccines.
Correction: A previous version of this article inaccurately described the percent of adverse reactions to doses injected. The Epoch Times regrets the error.

When will Lee Hsien Loong take his second jab? Then again, it could be just vitamin water he's using for his shitty photo ops, so it doesn't really matter.
So minor or serious disability who decide?
Can our leader of the Opp party decide or not?

Your sister country Canada bought 5 times worth of vaccines. Maybe your PM can suck Justin Trudeau's kuku for some

308 detected and/or immediate problems.
Good luck!
give you 10X undetected and we're barely up to 0.064% incidence rate.
that's roughly the chance of striking 1st prize in 4D.
won much lately?

That's curious. Because even Indonesia has vaccine, although it's sinovac.

Have no sense of self, then one won't have that dilemma.Now Sinkies will be in a dilemma: should they listen to their kiasu self or their kiasi self?
It will be a fun social experiment. Let the games begin.

Let's just face the facts. All the vax recipients are the beta testers at this stage.
Would you rather be tested with:
- a traditional dead virus vaccine made with technology used to inoculate smallpox since 1800s; or
- one which has researched in labs since the 1990s and never been used until now.
Like I pointed out in another thread, drugmakers are private enterprises with their profit making short term motives. They are happy to push their drugs/vaccines out to make billions. If the vax turns out to be a big boo-boo, the company shuts shop and no single person becomes accountable.
The other worry i have is the sinkie government's readiness to make us test subjects for new stuff for its own commercial benefits. The recent approval of lab grown meat, failed experiment with shared bikes, visas for substandard foreigners etc ...
And why the fuck are our elected opposition MPs silent on this?

NZ is of no value to the rest of the world and therefore has no bargaining power.

The data is encouraging when it comes to short term issues. The question mark still lingers as to the long term effects of this new vaccine technology. Hopefully it works as promised as it will be a groundbreaking new opportunity to treat cancer as well.

Although it's situated in an obscure corner of the world, it is still 1st world country. I reckon it's got nothing to do with bargaining power, just need to put in an order/a deposit. Quite simple. Unless the maoris have a traditional cure that your government is banging on, and not telling the world?

I'm afraid it is not a first world country. It has no army, no navy, no air force, no influence and no money. Even basic health care is lacking. Cancer patients have to go to Australia for proper treatment and care.
I've lived here for 2 decades so surely you can't know something about NZ that I don't.

Actually, vaccine works, as long as they undergo substantial animal and human trials. The problem now is these vaccines did not. Vaccines for polio and smallpox are life savers and literally unheard of in developed countries.
While you are not wrong that living and eating healthy are also essential. They cannot stop infections alone. Btw, our water in SG contains fluoride . It is known to link with several health issues like dental fluorosis and several forms of cancer.
