The Serious Adverse Events of mRNA Covid-19 Vaccine Trials
Maryanne Demasi In December 2020, the US FDA authorised the Moderna and Pfizer mRNA covid-19 vaccines, claiming “the benefits outweighed the harms.” A pre-print study (not yet peer-reviewed) by Fraiman and colleagues contradicts the FDA’s claim that the benefits outweigh the harms of the mRNA vaccines. … The researchers focused on analysing serious adverse events — specifically, they […]
Serious Adverse Events of Special Interest Following mRNA Vaccination in Randomized Trials
Joseph Fraiman et al. Pfizer and Moderna mRNA COVID-19 vaccines were associated with an increased risk of serious adverse events of special interest, with an absolute risk increase of 10.1 and 15.1 per 10,000 vaccinated over placebo baselines of 17.6 and 42.2 (95% CI -0.4 to 20.6 and -3.6 to 33.8), respectively. Combined, the mRNA […]
