The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recently urged consumers [ [link removed] ] to stop using certain brands of eye drops after a rare strain of bacteria was found in the drops and linked to dozens of infections and one death. Yet, more than 1.5 million injuries have been reported in people after receiving a COVID-19 vaccine, including 34,725 deaths, and the same agencies are full steam ahead on more shots for kids [ [link removed] ].
According to data from the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) released Friday, 1,533,182 [ [link removed] ] adverse events following COVID-19 vaccines were reported between Dec. 14, 2020, and March 10, 2023. This includes 285,196 [ [link removed] ] reports of serious injuries and 34,725  [ [link removed] ]deaths.
Of the 34,725 reported deaths, 21,733 cases [ [link removed] ] are attributed to Pfizer, 9,770  [ [link removed] ]to Moderna, 2,964  [ [link removed] ]to Johnson & Johnson, and 18 to Novavax. Of the reported deaths [ [link removed] ], 9% occurred within 24 hours of vaccination, and 13% occurred within 48 hours.
VAERS is a voluntary reporting system co-managed by the FDA and CDC designed to detect vaccine safety signals. It is considered an excellent, robust reporting system by vaccine makers (Pfizer) when they want to get out of having to track more detailed data on adverse events, but deeply flawed when it reveals safety signals the government and pharmaceutical companies want to ignore.
Excluding “foreign reports [ [link removed] ]” to VAERS, 943,912 adverse events [ [link removed] ], including 17,114 deaths [ [link removed] ] and 102,050 serious injuries [ [link removed] ], were reported in the U.S. between Dec. 14, 2020, and March 10, 2023.
Foreign reports [ [link removed] ] are reports from foreign subsidiaries sent to U.S. vaccine manufacturers. Under FDA regulations, if a manufacturer is notified of a foreign case report describing an event that is serious and does not appear on the product’s labeling, the manufacturer must submit the report to VAERS.
As of March 8, 672 million COVID-19 vaccine doses [ [link removed] ] were administered in the U.S., including 401 million doses of Pfizer, 252 million doses of Moderna, 19 million doses of Johnson & Johnson, and 82,000 doses of Novavax.
Data on bivalent COVID vaccine show 24,641 adverse events, 221 deaths
As of March 15, 54.2 million people [ [link removed] ] received an experimental bivalent booster dose targeting the no-longer-existing Wuhan strain and obsolete BA.4/BA.5 omicron subvariants.
Since the rollout of bivalent boosters in September 2022 and March 10, there have been 24,641 adverse events [ [link removed] ] reported to VAERS, with 40% attributed to Moderna’s booster [ [link removed] ] and 60% attributed to Pfizer/BioNTech [ [link removed] ]. The data included 221 deaths [ [link removed] ], 1,853 serious injuries [ [link removed] ], and 73 reports [ [link removed] ] of myocarditis and pericarditis (heart inflammation).
CDC uses narrowed case definition of myocarditis to skew numbers
The CDC’s myocarditis numbers are grossly underestimated, as the agency uses a narrowed case definition [ [link removed] ] of myocarditis.
To meet the case definition of myocarditis, people must have had “symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath and feelings of having a fast-beating, fluttering or pounding heart, and medical tests to support the diagnosis of myocarditis and rule out other causes.”
This allows the CDC to exclude cases of cardiac arrest, ischemic strokes, and deaths due to heart problems that occur before one has the chance to go to the hospital, obtain a diagnosis, or “dies suddenly.”
The death of Joseph Keating [ [link removed] ] is a prime example of a myocarditis case resulting in death that is excluded from CDC data.
The CDC website does not state what happens to these cases, but there is no indication they are tracked or included in the CDC’s myocarditis numbers.
VAERS data show 5,950 adverse events and 29 deaths in kids 6 months to 5 years old
Using MedAlerts, there were 5,950 adverse events [ [link removed] ], including 253 cases rated as serious [ [link removed] ] and 13 reported deaths [ [link removed] ]. Using the VAERS Aware dashboard, which locates reports the CDC excludes information from and/or miscategorizes to reduce deaths and certain adverse events, there were 29 reported deaths in children 6 months to age 5.
Here’s a list of the VAERS I.D. numbers for cross-reference:
Here’s a report of a little boy who died within ten days of receiving his six-month CDC-recommended shots. Do you think the CDC investigated this case and issued a recall? No.
According to MedAlerts, there were also 5 reports [ [link removed] ] of myocarditis and pericarditis, 35 reports [ [link removed] ] of blood clotting disorders, and 59 reports [ [link removed] ] of seizures.
Data show 17,093 adverse events, 39 deaths in 5- to 11-year olds
According to MedAlerts, there were 17,093 adverse events [ [link removed] ] reported in the 5 to 11-year age group attributed to COVID vaccines, including 829 rated as serious [ [link removed] ] and 34 reported deaths [ [link removed] ]. The VAERS Aware dashboard picked up an additional 5 reports in this age group.
MedAlert shows 48 reports [ [link removed] ] of myocarditis and pericarditis, 76 reports [ [link removed] ] of blood clotting disorders, and 193 reports [ [link removed] ] of seizures reported in this age group.
More teens have died from the vaccine than from COVID-19
According to MedAlerts, there have been 41,527 adverse events [ [link removed] ], including 4,646 rated as serious [ [link removed] ] and 139 reported deaths [ [link removed] ]. VAERS Aware picked up 82 additional deaths reported in this age group.
Including reports in children up to age 18, VAERS Aware picked up an additional 138 reports—meaning there were 277 reported deaths in the 12- to 18-year age group.
There were 276 reports [ [link removed] ] of anaphylaxis among 12- to 17-year-olds where the reaction was life-threatening, required treatment, or resulted in death, 1,352 reports [ [link removed] ] of myocarditis and pericarditis, 312 reports [ [link removed] ] of blood clotting disorders and 31 cases [ [link removed] ] of postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS).
Med Alerts data for all age groups to VAERS
16% of deaths were related to cardiac disorders.
53% of those who died were male [ [link removed] ], and 41% were female [ [link removed] ]. The remaining death reports do not list the gender of the deceased.
The average age [ [link removed] ] of death was 72.
As of Feb. 17, 9,035 pregnant women [ [link removed] ] reported adverse events related to COVID-19 vaccines, including 5,231 reports [ [link removed] ] of miscarriage or premature birth.
Of the 17,139 cases of Bell’s palsy [ [link removed] ] reported, 73% were attributed to Pfizer vaccinations, 22% to Moderna [ [link removed] ], and 5% to J&J [ [link removed] ].
3,258 reports [ [link removed] ] of Guillain-Barré syndrome.
10,400 reports [ [link removed] ] of anaphylaxis where the reaction was life-threatening, required treatment or resulted in death.
8,488 reports [ [link removed] ] of myocardial infarction and cardiac arrest.
46,131 reports [ [link removed] ] of blood-clotting disorders. Of those, 31,677 reports [ [link removed] ] were attributed to Pfizer, 10,436 reports [ [link removed] ] to Moderna, and 3,943 reports [ [link removed] ] to Johnson & Johnson.
25,487 cases [ [link removed] ] of myocarditis and pericarditis, with 19,349 cases [ [link removed] ] attributed to Pfizer, 5,636 cases [ [link removed] ] to Moderna, and 442  [ [link removed] ]to Johnson & Johnson.
79 cases [ [link removed] ] of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, with 65 cases [ [link removed] ] attributed to Pfizer, 12  [ [link removed] ]to Moderna, and 2  [ [link removed] ]to J&J.
706 cases [ [link removed] ] of POTS, with 523 cases [ [link removed] ] attributed to Pfizer, 155 cases [ [link removed] ] to Moderna, and 27 cases [ [link removed] ] to Johnson & Johnson.
Although healthcare providers are required by law to report vaccine adverse events to VAERS, research shows very few do. It is essential that anyone who experiences an adverse event report their own injury [ [link removed] ].
