In passenger seat and skipped over much of above, but will go back later. I will describe the experience of good friends which I do find concerning.
Husband got his second Moderna shot. That night, he got sick. You can debate whether related or not. Description used words like paralysis, but nurse wife ultimately labeled if seizure. Brought to er and admitted. Tests done. Wife asked for antibody assessment several times, out of concern of vaccine reaction. Was refused. Was told no proof of causality and “not on list”. IMO if one never examines an oddly timed illness for consideration of association, then how does it ever get on the list. And if only items on the list get considered, then new problems are never identified. Anyhow, assuming this was all described to me accurately, I find it concerning and makes me wonder about all kinds on claims.

Six weeks later, less than a week before radiation treatment for the brain cancer was going to begin, she died from pneumonia. Pneumonia was the official cause of death, but, the cancers, weakened her system.
Not related to the above. As far as the 3rd shot for covid goes, my husband was hospitalized in late May for 5 days. Blood clots in his knee area traveled to his lungs. We had our second Moderna shot in April. No family history of blood clots. The doctor did ask if we had the vaccine and said there could be a small risk factor for blood clots as a side effect. He’s been on Xarelto since then. How can you make a decision whether or not to get the 3rd shot, not knowing if the vaccine may have caused the blood clots? From what I understand, we would be eligible around December. No one knows for sure. Ultimately, a very personal decision.
What you described us pretty much where my head is at. I am pro immunity and pro vaccination. I am struggling some with forcing booster shots and even struggling with forcing vaccination for those with “natural immunity”.

I have personal connections to two people who died from the covid vaccine.
Please be respectful of this when pushing the vaccine or denigrating those who choose not to take it.
The thing is, I don’t believe you, because so few people around the world have died following the vaccine that for a single person to know two of them is astronomically unlikely.
Exactly!
Not comfortable with calling each other liars here. We may have differing opinions, but I go in with the premise that, especially when people are making personal statements, they are telling the truth.
I try to give people the benefit of the doubt, but in this case, what is claimed is not possible.
This sort of deliberate misinformation is killing real people in the real world. Responsible social media forums are deleting it.
These were aquaintances, not close friends.
The first was very concerned about covid, he stayed home all year. Went out as soon as he was able to get vaccinated. He had a heart attack within 24 hours. I don't know his family history, but these vaccines do cause increased risk for heart attack.
The second, I don't know her cause of death - coworker of a family member. She was out already for knee surgery, so she was not in peak health. Sick in bed for a week, died. I don't know if she got an infection or something - but everyone in her life said she died as a result of the vaccine.
Many people do die of heart attacks. many people have vaccines.
It stands to reason that some people will have a heart attack 24 hours after having a vaccine - in fact would be statistically impossible for this not to happen, given the frequency of both events.
Likewise people have heart attacks within 24 hours of having a roast dinner or going to a football game or playing Scrabble - needless to say, one event did not cause the other.

Alabama man dies after being turned away from 43 hospitals as Covid packs ICUs, family says
When Ray DeMonia was having a cardiac emergency last month, his Alabama family waited anxiously for a nearby hospital with available space in its intensive care unit.
But in a state where coronavirus infections and unvaccinated patients have overwhelmed hospitals in recent months, finding an available ICU bed was an ordeal. It was so difficult, his family wrote this month, that the hospital in his hometown of Cullman, Ala., contacted 43 others in three states — and all were unable to give him the care he needed.
DeMonia, who was eventually transferred to a Mississippi hospital about 200 miles away, died at 73 on Sept. 1 — three days shy of his birthday.
Raven DeMonia, his daughter, told The Washington Post on Sunday that it was “shocking” when the family was told that dozens of ICUs were unable to treat her father.
“It was like, ‘What do you mean?’ ” she said when she found out her father was being airlifted to a Mississippi hospital. “I never thought this would happen to us.”
Now, in DeMonia’s obituary, his family is urging those who remain unvaccinated to get immunized to help hospitals that have been pushed to their limits and struggling to treat emergencies not related to the pandemic. His daughter told The Post he was vaccinated against the coronavirus.
“In honor of Ray, please get vaccinated if you have not, in an effort to free up resources for non COVID related emergencies,” the family wrote. “He would not want any other family to go through what his did.”16 -

If he had the vaccine recently, you would expect him to have antibodies. How would that remotely qualify as evidence that the vaccination caused the stroke?9 -

Blood clots are one of the known and recognized side effects of these vaccines, some manufacturers more than others. Don't act like it's so far outside the realm of possibility.6 -
@ExistingFish Blood clots are also a symptom of Covid and at a much higher rate than the vaccine. All vaccines have side effects for some subset of the population. On the whole the symptoms of Covid are far more serious than the vaccines.
I had the shingles vaccine a month ago and it caused some weird redness near the injection site as well as some tingling side effects. A month later that redness has faded into a "tan line" which makes me apprehensive about the second shot. I'll still get it because I've had friends who had shingles and I don't want it.
Life is full of calculated risks. I'm fully vaccinated and in spite of some minor concerns I decided I would much rather take the chance with the vaccine than Covid itself. Others may feel differently. However, if I have a serious health issue or get in an accident that requires immediate attention I would not be very happy that the ER is not able to accommodate me because the hospital is full of people who chose not to be vaccinated. If the non-vaccinated are so convinced they are on the right path then perhaps they should stay the *kitten* away from hospitals.18 -

Blood clots also just happen sometimes.
One person having a blood clot after a vaccine means nothing.6 -

Did you actually read those articles?
1) The first one says the 16 year old girl had mitral valve prolapse. My dad had the exact same thing. And it caused about eight heart attacks. One of which killed him.
I’m gonna say this wasn’t the vaccine. Which is the view of her parents.
2) This one has “allegedly” right in the headline. Editing to add it is a campus newspaper, with extremely poor editing.
Hard pass.
3) No autopsy at the time the article was written. So also, hard pass.
You have so far shared zero proof that the vaccines available in North America have killed anyone.18 -

No good if it's on a covid blog - k, found news articles - no good for you either. Got it.
Of course it says allegedly, it isn't proven yet.
Because, 3rd - regular people don't routinely get autopsies. As stated further up in this thread, doctor's won't even put recent vaccination on a possible cause of ER admission, it isn't even being considered - so there never will be evidence because people keep denying it is even possible.2 -
So you are now moving away from ' 2 people I know' - who had the vaccine then died of things people do die of anyway to people on blog sites with unproven connections??
Have you heard of confirmation bias?17 -

"This is confirmation bias!"
You can't actually get proof because they aren't looking for it, so they won't find it. Read in this very thread posted this very day, people go to the ER within 24 hours of their vaccine with major side effects and are told it could not be because of the vaccine and it isn't recorded.5 -

I’m probably going to regret this but…
WHY would doctors break the Hippocratic oath to hide vaccine related deaths?
It makes no sense.15 -

People suspected - by doctors, not randos - of dying of the vaccine are not regular people and do get autopsies. The Johnson and Johnson vaccine was paused while deaths suspected to be from that vaccine were invested, it’s actually a big deal and not a casual thing.21 -

Actually - No you didnt provide any quick to find proof as has been pointed out already.
Nor did you know 2 people who died from Covid vaccine as has also been pointed out.
we all have confirmation bias - that is why research does double blind and independently reviewed analysis
If one is looking for proof of something and interprets everything as being proof of that without critical thinking about the source or the information - yes that is confirmation bias
Or rather conformation bias that one has no insight or recognition of - and therefore is doing nothing to account for or to balance such.

The first one:
I didn’t point out that it was on a COVID blog. I pointed out that the girl’s parents don’t believe her death was related to the vaccine. They believe it was related to her mitral valve prolapse.
Which can cause sudden heart attacks. Even in a 16 year old.
The reason for her death is bleeping obvious.
It’s literally exactly what my dad died of.
Mitral valve prolapse isn’t always serious. But sometimes it is deadly.
The second one: You admit it’s not proven. So why do you try to use it to prove your point?
And @rheddmobile handled the third one nicely.

Logical point. Their first dose was 3+ months after recovering and their second dose was about 5 weeks instead of 4. The thought would be to see if he was put into an excessive state of antibodies. The couple claims that they spoke with a friend who works in vaccine science and she commented that what they described was due to an overload of antibodies. I feel like the phrasing was something like an antibody storm. Apologies that this is hearsay, but these people are not anti Vaxers or anything and solely shared their experience and observations.3
