A popular list implies COVID-19 vaccines contribute to the deaths of dozens of people. It's misleading. The agencies warn against drawing inferences from individual reports published in the VAERS database. youtu.be/1zhAsr6xFhk

Are there side effects to the COVID-19 vaccine?

Vaccine experts say it’s not possible to tell whether a particular adverse event is linked to the vaccine or merely occurred afterward as a coincidence, and they cautioned against drawing inferences.

@thewalrus1 Mar 2021
In the US, nearly one in 100 people have OCD, with about half of those cases being severe. In Canada, 1 percent will experience an episode. And @nerdygirly is one of them. But, in media portrayals, the disorder often seems like a benign quirk. thewalrus.ca/ocd-is-not-a-jo… 1/5
