Or when countries like Denmark and Sweden halt moderna for under 30's citing inflammation reactions. As much as there is a crusade to dismiss the VAERS database it does pretty obviously suggest that there is quite a bit more risk here than in traditional vaccines.

> As much as there is a crusade to dismiss the VAERS database

there is not a "crusade to dismiss" VAERS data. There is a push to correctly remind people about the shortcomings of VAERS reports for which that has been the case (and made known[1]) for as long as it has existed. The "crusade" is to use VAERS to misinform people.

The 'traditional' i.e. non-RNA Oxford vaccine has somewhat greater risk profile than Moderna.
