UK Gov. adviser on side effects!

" the rare side effects are allergic reactions such as skin rash, mouth sores, fever, difficulty breathing, more prone to bleeding, bruising, fever, infections, nausea, sudden weight loss, loss of appetite, jaundice yellowing of the eyes and skin.

"Those are documented rare side effects but we all understand the benefits of them.''

this was the brilliant Professor Jonathan Van-Dam at a press meeting. He was answering questions about the supposed risk of blood clotting following an Astra Zeneca vaccine and how frustrated he was with the stance of many European countries who have suspended it's administration in spite of their own medical agency saying it's positive effects far, far outweighed the minimal risk of side effects and telling them they were wrong to suspend. He was trying to show how important it was to realise that all medicines can have unwanted side effects. It was a matter of weighing up the positive result from taking them against the level of risk of side effects. He was reading from the leaflet we all find in a box of medicine he had taken out of his pocket - it was from a box of Paracetamol!! I bet most of us take those and will still do so in spite of reading what sounds like a terrifying list of possible side effects!!
