So, I've noticed that some countries and specially in the US people claim to know a lot of people with vaccine side-effects. I'm from Mexico and most people I know are vaccinated and haven't heard anyone with any side-effect, I believe I know a lot of people, let's say about 500 people or more I could hear from, 200 in my larger social circle and about 50 who are very very close to me. Still haven't heard of anyone having a major side effect except the usual fever after getting the shot. Also, let me add that I'm quite observant, and I've actually been actively looking for anyone with side-effects.
Could the vaccine side-effects be targeted to certain populations?
Side note: Most of my closer circle have gotten the vax in the US (Pfizer, Moderna, and Janssen (A LOT of us Janssen, for some reason), but I think the many others took the ones that are available here in Mexico.
Anyway let me know what you think. I'll be looking to answer questions.
I am from Brazil and my neighboors got the vax, none of them had any side effects. Some of my classmates from college did get side effects, but it was just like a cold that lasted for a day or two, I was also thinking about this too.
I did see on the news an eldery couple that died here after the first dose, but no one blamed the vaccine, obviously.
Damn, Brazil is getting CoronaVac and AstraZeneca right?
Pfizer and Sputnik in some states as well
