This was reported this morning:

 

Seven people suff ered from partial paralysis after receiving the Sinovac vaccine, a doctor from Chulalongkorn University said.

Thiravat Hemachudha, director of the Health Science Centre of Emerging Diseases at Chulalongkorn University's faculty of medicine, posted on Facebook on Tuesday that six of them were in Rayong and one at the Queen Savang Vadhana Memorial Hospital in Chon Buri's Sri Racha district.

Their conditions improved after doctors administered medication to dissolve blood clots, Dr Thiravat posted

Does that report say if these people were already tested positive or not ?

It seems strangely "co-incidental" that such an association is now also being linked to  the Sinovac vaccine.

Hong Kong has been reporting a few also:

 

"Two more people have died and nine others experienced facial paralysis after receiving vaccinations for the coronavirus, experts monitoring vaccinations in Hong Kong have revealed."

 

"Previously, seven people had died following Sinovac jabs,"

Scary.  From that article:

 

No direct link has been established between the shots and the fatalities.

No link yes but something to keep an eye on

While there seems to be a concerted effort by more than one to decry any vaccine other than Pfizer or Moderna on grounds of inefficacy or associated risks the reality is that efficacy and extremely marginal risk are questionable  for  All the vaccines.

The South African variant has challenged although Moderna is claiming a modification appears to provided a solution to that issue.

Moderna has  so  far escaped any notable links to dangerous side effects.

Pfizer not so but interestingly such information has long  been kept under the radar of social commentary. https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/covid-19/info-by-product/pfizer/reactogenicity.html

 

Similarly well ignored is that a well documented report by the makers of  Sinovac early on in the identification of serious mutations openly admitted that the South African  variant escaped it almost completely as opposed to a marginal decrease overall  involving other variants.

An internet search related to finding current honest data IMO seems to indicate a very commercial bias to the point where  Pfizer / Moderna have made conflicting claims about superior efficacy against the South African  variant in particular.

I find it ridiculous that in the face of dealing with this pandemic where vaccinations are claimed to be the salvation for a return to some lesser draconian manipulations of public life that extremely marginal risks are enough to stall the process which exposes massive numbers to the proven damaging long term effects of the virus.
