We have 50+ years of history on vaccines, billions of doses, etc.

That history of research says this: If "symptoms" don't show up within 6 weeks, they don't really show up at all.

That is to say, with ALL other vaccines in existence, issues have shown up within 6 weeks.

Here is an article which explains it, but this is like common knowledge amongst epidemiologists: https://www.nationalgeographic.com/science/article/vaccines-...

Comparing mRNA technology to conventional vaccines is borderline disingenuous. I don't think we've ever vaccinated people with live pathogens (or at least not deactivated), and we certainly have never repurposed our own cells to manufacture an inflammatory protein which then migrates to cell surfaces.

Autoimmune disorders in particular are not necessarily going to appear in 6 weeks. Especially when the data is so noisy and there's a clear, career risking stigma against reporting anything.
