Document Reveals Hidden Figures of COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine Adverse Effects in Israel
In Israel, concerns have been raised about the handling of reports of adverse events following the administration of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine. According to a recent report, over 200 reports of menstrual changes were not investigated promptly.
A claim that 82% of side effect reports from Pfizer’s vaccine in Israel were lost due to technical errors has circulated, but no credible evidence supports this assertion in recent official reports. The details about the causes and consequences of such a large data loss, such as whether it was a software malfunction, reporting system outage, or human error, are currently unavailable in the cited literature.
The Israeli Health Ministry received 345,200 reports of adverse events following the Pfizer mRNA injection in 2021. However, only 18% of these reports were recorded in the ministry's database, with an additional 33,000 injury reports not analyzed due to the ministry's inability to analyze anonymous reports. The majority of the lost and unanalyzed reports were not investigated for potential serious side effects.
State Comptroller Matanyahu Englman's office released a report criticizing the Health Ministry's conduct during the COVID-19 pandemic. The report revealed that 82% (283,064) of these reports were lost due to technical errors, and the ministry failed to process an additional 33,000 reports filed by the public regarding side effects.
The Health Ministry has denied any increase in cardiac arrests, but 275 cases of myocarditis/pericarditis were reported, with most victims hospitalized. Out of the analyzed reports, 55,000 were mild (such as fever and pain at the injection site).
The lack of manpower in the ministry's Department of Epidemiology meant that reports that contained identifying details were also unable to be reviewed and investigated. This situation raises questions about the thoroughness of the investigation into potential vaccine side effects in Israel.
Vaccine safety monitoring systems worldwide, including in Israel, continuously aim to capture and assess suspected side effects diligently. Technical issues in data collection can occur but losing such a high proportion of reports would be unusual and likely publicly addressed if verified.
If this figure is based on a recent official report, providing it would enable a more detailed and accurate explanation. Until then, it is essential to approach such claims with caution and to prioritize transparency and accountability in the reporting and investigation of vaccine side effects.
- The state of health-and-wellness concerning the handling of medical-conditions associated with the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine in Israel has been questioned, as a significant proportion of reported side effects have allegedly gone uninvestigated, possibly due to technical errors in the data collection process.
- The truth about the losses of reports on adverse events following the Pfizer mRNA injection in Israel remains unclear, as the causes behind such a large data loss, whether due to software malfunction, reporting system outage, or human error, have yet to be found in the scientific literature or any official reports.
- To ensure better understanding and transparency, it's crucial to prioritize accurate reporting and thorough investigation of potential vaccine side effects, such as serious medical conditions and minor alterations in health-and-wellness, like menstrual changes, as mentioned in the articles surrounding this issue.
