Strong effect? I read it was a mild antiviral
> and even crazier, that it may be safer or more effective than the mRNA vaccines
It is definitely safer according to the literature
VAERS, even with its data quality issues, is tracking ~7600 deaths from COVID vaccines in the US. VAERS is widely alleged to have large factors of undercounting [1] around vaccine deaths & injuries
> Adverse events from drugs and vaccines are common, but underreported. Although 25% of
ambulatory patients experience an adverse drug event, less than 0.3% of all adverse drug events
and 1-13% of serious events are reported to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Likewise, fewer than 1% of vaccine adverse events are reported. [2]
If VAERS only has 1%, 5%, or 10% of actuals, things are going to get much worse.
However, despite the skyrocketing counts of pericarditis and myocarditis among young men in particular, they are still pushing vaxxes for the youngest that have the lowest death rates from covid.
Really, this is becoming a medical ethics issue of coercion and a violation of Due No Harm.
