"Abstract...
Areas of uncertainty: We aim to provide a broader understanding of ADRs [adverse drug reactions] associated with COVID-19 vaccines and their implications for public health...
Data sources: This is the first in a series of scientific reports by the World Council for Health (WCH) delving into the COVID-19 vaccine data available on VigiAccess.org, which should be a valuable resource in this context.
Therapeutic Advances: For all regions worldwide during the 26-month period, there were nearly 24 million reported adverse events (AEs), of which nearly 8 million were serious (SAEs). Over one million people experienced at least one SAE ranging from a combination of debilitating and life-threatening conditions and death. A total of 58,091 people were reported to have died in the dataset.
Conclusions: ... Whilst further investigation is needed to establish causation, based on the substantial numbers of deaths and SAEs associated with the COVID-19 vaccines on VigiAccess.org, the strategy of COVID-19 vaccination programmes worldwide should be reconsidered. Furthermore, these data will likely be significantly underreported given majority of cases were not self-reported and data would also be reported in other sources not captured by VigiAccess."
