"Introduction
... This study aims to examine the relationship between vaccine administration and the reporting of adverse events in Taiwan using the data accumulated since the inception of the vaccination program. By analyzing Taiwan’s vaccination strategies and adverse event reports, this research endeavors to provide valuable insights into vaccine safety and contribute to the formulation of evidence-based vaccine policies...

2.2. Taiwan COVID-19 Vaccine Program Timeline
... As of 24 September 2023, 285.25 COVID-19 doses had been recorded per 100 people. On 30 September 2023, total vaccinations administered increased to 68,058,135, yet 21,225 adverse vaccine events and 31.2 adverse event reports per 100,000 doses were reported...
3. Results
3.2. Vaccination Coverage
The data point shows that at least 91.65% of Taiwan’s population received one dose by 24 September 2023, indicating that its vaccination rate is ahead of many countries and regions...
3.3. Public Health Outcomes and Concerns
The estimated cumulative excess deaths per 100,000 people in Taiwan during the pandemic are evaluated and depicted in Figure 6 [below].
3.4 Adverse Events Analysis
... Figure 7 illustrates the serious adverse reactions to vaccines in Taiwan, covering the period from 22 March 2021 to 30 September 2023... The data indicate that the highest number of hospitalization-related reports occurred in the 18–49 age group, while reports of death were significantly higher in the group aged 65 and above...
Discussion
... Following the Emergency Use Authorization (EUA), significant overlap between injuries from mRNA vaccine products and both Post-Acute Sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 Infection (PACS) and severe acute COVID-19 illnesses has been observed, often concealing the vaccine’s role in causing these conditions. Moreover, frequent mRNA booster injections may paradoxically impair immune function, increasing the likelihood of COVID-19 infection. Alongside this, a number of serious AESIs like deaths, cancers, cardiac issues, and various other health disorders have been reported, raising substantial concerns. These concerns are particularly acute for the elderly and point to an urgent need to investigate the link between vaccines and AESIs, as well as the issues related to DNA contamination and abnormal protein production associated with the mRNA vaccines."
