The CDC this past week acknowledged that over 1,200 cases of heart conditions including myocarditis or pericarditis had been reported so far, mostly in people 30, as a result of taking COVID vaccines. That number included over 350 of heart inflammation cases in teens.
But despite saying there was a “likely association” between the heart maladies and experimental vaccines, the CDC continued to advise young people to get vaccinated.
“Clinical presentation of myocarditis cases following vaccination has been distinct, occurring most often within one week after dose two, with chest pain as the most common presentation,” said Dr. Grace Lee, chair of the CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices safety group.
According to CDC numbers, 2,767 people ages 12 to 29 years old have died from COVID, since it first showed up in the U.S., said Lee. That represents a period of about 17 months.
Vaccines have only been widely distributed for the past five months, and have only been authorized for teens aged 12 to 15, since 13 May, 2021.
Overall, reports of adverse events from the mRNA and DNA vaccines are now unprecedented in the history of vaccines.
Through 18 June, 2021, there have been 387,288 reports registered in VAERS (Vaccine Adverse Reporting System), the official vaccine event database of the CDC and FDA.
Those numbers include:
- 6,136 deaths
- 6,450 life threatening events
- 9,766 blood clots and strokes
- 5,194 disabled
- 2,483 heart attacks
- 17,408 severe allergic reactions
- 21,806 hospitalizations
- 51,575 urgent care visits
In Europe, the EudraVigilance database used to record vaccine events shows that through 19 June, 2021 there have been 15,472 reported deaths and 1,509,266 from experimental COVID vaccines from four different pharmaceuticals, including Pfizer, Johnson & Johnson (Jansen in Europe), Astrazeneca and Moderna.
Vaccination rates
So far in the U.S., 322 million doses of vaccine have been given. It’s estimated that about 51 percent of Americans have been vaccinated. Canada, a 46 percent, isn’t far behind.
Many areas of Central and South America are currently much more lightly vaccinated. Mexico stands at 16.8 percent, and Nicaragua, Honduras and Guatemala are all under 3 percent. Brazil and Argentina, the largest South American countries, both have vaccination rates that stand at about half of the U.S. rate.
Most of Western Europe stands at between 40 and 53 percent of the population vaccinated. Sweden is somewhat lower, at 35 percent.
Russia and China are much more lightly vaccinated than the U.S., which has not received much news play. Both have vaccinated under 15 percent of their populations.
In the rest of the world, Israel led in vaccinations, and it now appears they are leading in medical issues for their population, in terms of serious viral outbreaks at a time of year that isn’t normal in that country. Turkey and Saudi Arabia have vaccinated about a quarter of their populations.
Much of Africa and the far east remain overall among the mostly lightly vaccinated areas in the world.
