In a survey, 22 percent of respondents said they knew of at least one vaccinated person who suffered health issues after taking the injections.
People who did not comply with COVID-19 vaccine requirements were hesitant because they knew someone who had experienced a health problem after getting the injection, according to recent research.
“Knowing someone who experienced a health problem following COVID-19 injection reduced the likelihood of injection, the International Journal of Vaccine Theory, Practice, and Research reported.
Such people “were more likely to oppose injection mandates and passports.
..
Conversely, “knowing someone who had health problems following the COVID-19 illness increased the likelihood of injection,” the journal said.
Among those who were aware of at least one individual who experienced COVID-19 injection adverse events, they said they knew about 57 deaths following vaccination.
“The health issues reported ranged from serious problems such as cardiac arrests and other heart-related problems, blood clots and other circulatory problems, to neurological issues, as well as milder effects such as feeling sick, headache, fever, etc.”
The study, published on Feb. 16, investigated the factors that made people support or protest COVID-19 vaccine mandates and passports. Researchers collected information from an online survey completed by 2,840 individuals in December 2021. It found that 22 percent of the respondents knew at least one person who experienced a health issue after getting vaccinated.
The authors cited other studies on vaccine hesitancy in the context of influenza to point out that “vaccination status [in these studies] is influenced by beliefs regarding vaccine safety, effectiveness in infection prevention, and the gravity of the illness that might be prevented.”
“Political identity is also important: Compared to Democrats, those who self-identify as Republicans are more likely to oppose mandates. Those who identify as Independent also tend to oppose injection mandates.”
One of the authors of the study is Mark Skidmore, a professor and Morris Chair in State and Local Government Finance and Policy at Michigan State University (MSU). He has previously published research in several journals like Economic Inquiry, Economics Letters, and the Journal of Urban Economics. The second author, Fernanda Alfaro, is a Ph.D. student at MSU.
Regarding funding and conflicts of interest, researchers said they received funds from an individual donor.
Safety Concerns and Vaccine Hesitancy..
In a recent post at the International Center for Law and Economics, health economist Roger Bate points out that the COVID-19 vaccines “were not as effective as originally claimed, and were effectively forced onto many people in order for them to work, attend school, or travel.”
“There is early evidence that these and other factors may currently be contributing to heightened vaccine hesitancy, with potentially serious consequences for public health.”
..
A July 2022 analysis published in BMJ Global Health also raised similar concerns. It argued that mandatory COVID-19 vaccination policies were “scientifically questionable” and were more likely to result in harm than good.
“Restricting people’s access to work, education, public transport, and social life based on COVID-19 vaccination status impinges on human rights, promotes stigma and social polarisation, and adversely affects health and well-being,” it said.
The restrictive COVID-19 policies “may lead to a widening of health and economic inequalities, detrimental long-term impacts on trust in government and scientific institutions, and reduce the uptake of future public health measures, including COVID-19 vaccines as well as routine immunizations.”
In an interview with Fox News last year, Dr. Robert Redfield, former head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), said that federal officials pushed a “false perception” that the COVID-19 vaccines provided “complete” immunization.
..
“There was such an attempt to not let anybody get any hint that maybe vaccines weren’t foolproof, which, of course, we now know they have significant limitations,” he stated.
“I always said … my position was just tell the American public the truth: There are side effects to vaccines. Tell them the truth, and don’t try to package it.”
Commenting on the Feb. 16 study, cardiologist Peter A. McCullough said in a Substack post that vaccine hesitancy would be higher in 2024 “as more injuries, disabilities, and deaths have been reported as a result of the novel genetic products” since the 2021 survey. “When it comes to COVID-19 vaccination, hesitancy is a good thing demonstrating the population is concerned about consumer product safety of the mRNA and adenoviral DNA technology,” he wrote. Dr. McCullough also criticized the American Medical Association’s (AMA) view on vaccine hesitancy.
..
The AMA website has this statement: “While the AMA is a strong advocate for the effectiveness and safety of vaccines, we recognize that some members of the public may have historical, cultural, or religious reasons to distrust the vaccination process.”
The AMA’s views on the factors driving vaccine hesitancy are inapplicable, Dr. McCullough said. “Attempts to overcome vaccine hesitancy are likely to be harmful.”
Some experts have also raised concerns about vaccine hesitancy triggered during COVID-19 extending to other vaccines as well.
I work with a young lady who has had 3 miscarriages after the vax she had a previous child with no problems the disappointment for her has been awful!!
That’s another one. There were several major red flags.
R.I.P. DG. That’s all that me and my family needed to know. Nuremberg 2.0
How about knowledge of ineffectiveness and natural immunity from getting Covid despite your skanky vaccine.
Living here in the deepest of the “Deep South”, I drive past statues of Nathan Bedford Forest on a regular basis. Race relations around here are quite cordial, BTW. Our ancestors all worked in the same cotton fields for the same sharecroppers.
According to my daughter, this is “fake news.” She’s so far in the vaccine camp that I can’t convince her otherwise.
Or simply driven by “GTH”
The only vaccine I would take now is the rabies vaccine if I was bitten by a rabid animal.
Yup!
Reading FR reporting, the CDC noticed usually heavy traffic to their web site in June of 2021. CDC found that the extra web traffic was to their own published VAERS pages.
Solution to the heavy traffic to VAERS? Shut down VAERS for ten days into July 2021. Install new reporting/vetting system to slow down the rate of reported Deaths.
VAERS after that point of time still reported deaths, but at a lesser accelerated rate.
The CDC finally shut down any reporting of new vaccine adverse events for the China Virus 2019 shot about five months ago.
This tactic of ignoring adverse events is how Hussein Obama solved the H1N1 pandemic of 2009…just stop reporting new cases, which he and the current POTUS Potato did in January 2010…problem solved.
Then they spent several years studying their wasted crisis (Never Waste A Crisis) and were prepared in 2019 when China’s Corona Virus 2019 entered the USA prior to the coming election year (2020)…shut downs and mail in ballots.
Steal the election.
Three people in my circle all died before their time. They all had the shot.
Unfortunately too many Americans are like sheep who lack critical thinking and follow the latest fad without question.
Within a year of the injection, my mother got massive blood clots and developed stage 4 cancer. Within a year. I truly believe that injection killed her.
I am so sorry. I heard this anecdotally via a C suite meeting at a hospital. They had such an increase in miscarriages they kindly started a new program in 2022. Meanwhile forcing their staff to get the vax because CMS will reduce Medicare payments… just like the flu vax.
Still trump is talking about the billions he saved worldwide with operation warp speed. Trump is willing to do pay big pharma to that to your family and many many others.
Trust is the true coin of the realm.
And Deep State is flat busted.
Americans are indeed educable.
It’s why Deep State has to steal elections.
Until our republic is restored, I will never even consider getting another vaxx.
Tell me, were you warning FReepers not to get vaxxed early on...
Or did you get suckered, too?

Any known adverse effects are not being admitted to. Another big red flag. A first in its kind genetic treatment cannot be as safe as drinking water, which was their behavior/hype in 2021. If they were going to lie, I wasn’t going to take it.
Well done. In the end, the world wide death rate remains at 100%!. 🤔👍
