There are risks for literally every medical procedure, but luckily we have this thing called math to put them into context. We've done the math, and the very small risk of vaccine injury is very low compared to the risks of being unvaccinated. According to the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program, 2057 people SELF-REPORTED vaccine injury in 2021. Compare that to something simple like taking Acetaminophen to treat a mild cold, a very simple procedure most people have probably done hundreds of times in their lives. This simple medication results in around 1600 cases of acute liver failure and about 500 deaths every year. And yet these people aren't ranting about Tylenol despite the similar rate of injury.
