There are some analysts that have said the deaths reported to VAERS is probably loss than 10% of actual cases. As you say let everyone make their own decision. Well, yes, those analysts, whoever they may be, are technically correct. The true number was less than 10%, Actually as of July 19, the percentage was reckoned to be .0481%. "Between December 2020 and July 19th, 2021, VAERS received 6,207 reports of death (0.0018% of doses) among people who got a vaccine, but this does not mean the vaccine caused these deaths... There are three deaths that appear to be linked to blood clots that occurred after people got the J&J vaccine. Since we now know how to correctly treat people who develop these blood clots, future deaths related to this very rare side effect can be prevented. After careful review of the additional data, doctors have decided that there is no evidence at all that the vaccines contributed to the other patient deaths." https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-covid19-vaers/fact-check-vaers-data-does-not-prove-over-2000-deaths-due-to-covid-19-vaccines-in-july-2021-idUSL1N2PB2H3

( like 5 days before ) I find this hard to believe ..... anyone know if it's ok to have alcohol even up to the day of the jab ?? thanks. I just found this .... The Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) - the body that approved both the AstraZeneca/Oxford vaccine and the Pfizer/Moderna vaccine for use - has stated that “there is currently no evidence that drinking alcohol interferes with the efficacy of the Covid-19 vaccines. We would advise anyone concerned about this to talk to their healthcare professional.” So essentially, there is currently no reason to believe that drinking alcohol hampers the way with the vaccination. Seems to be different with the Sputnik V vaccine... Good that I had Pfizer. ????????

August 31, 20214 yr Author 7 hours ago, GreasyFingers said: My wife told me to abstain two days before and after so I rang a mate who had 2 jabs of AZ in Australia. He said his doctor did not mention anything. So it is another Thai wife's tale. I wouldn't blame her. I found many different opinions on the Internet. The consensus seems to be that you should not drink much alcohol. But there is also certain medication you should avoid if possible. Medication that suppresses the immune system. Of course it is a different situation if you (have to) take it for instance long time because of an autoimmune disease or for cancer treatment or any other purpose. In the end if you really want to know your protection level perhaps an antibody level test might be helpful. Otherwise with or without alcohol you will not know how much protection you really have. It depends on the age and many other factors.

If 1500 people die every day in Thailand (of all causes), & if everyone in Thailand was vaccinated this week, we’d have laymen without medical knowledge thinking 10,500 died from the vaccine - if they knew about it, they could fill out a VAERS report.
August 31, 20214 yr An interesting study recently from Israel about the mRNA vaccine. Lots of boring numbers, but the essence is that the risk of side effects after getting covid-19 are a lot higher than from the vaccine itself, if we take one of those side effects most people worry about. https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2110475
August 31, 20214 yr After my 2nd shot for 2 days I felt physically exhausted/drained... no energy, mental fog, no motivation etc. Took those 2 days as chill days. Felt better after

If you consider Sang Som to be alcohol, no problem. I had a shot of it before the 1st injection ( preventive ) and the rest of the bottle after it. ( desinfectant ) 555555

After the vaccine there was a big increase in the arthritis pain and sciatica, but do not know if it was the vaccine or lack of medication. I don't take NSAIDs often so I was free of them before the vaccination. My RA problem joints were much more painful after the vaccination and I had an extreme stiffness in the morning for about 3 days. I also had muscle pain. So it was a mixture of both. Now more than a week later I am almost back to my normal pain levels. The muscle pain disappeared completely. I will not take any medication until 2 weeks after the second shot. I don't take DMARDs or steroids (yet). So it is still easy to stop and start again with medication.
September 1, 20214 yr i had a stroke after the pfizer jab ,docs said they were not sure it was caused by jab
September 1, 20214 yr Had my 1st shot. No after effects except for day after when it just felt slightly bruised but no different from previous Tetanus/Typhoid jobs. After that none at all. As for not drinking alcohol just an old wives tale I should think
September 1, 20214 yr 40+ fit healthy, had pfizer on aug 27 first jab no real side effects, I deliberately only had 4 hours sleep the night before and then slept for several hours when I got back to my hotel (5 mins from medpark) I think helped, as I spent most of my time sleeping till the next day.
September 2, 20214 yr 1st Pfizer jab yesterday. Didnt feel the needle. Slight headache for a couple of hours last night. This morning it feels like I've lightly bumped my arm in the small area of the jab but not enough to really notice.
September 4, 20214 yr Second Pfizer from Medpark BKK 2 days ago and nothing other than a bit of tender location of the shot. That's it.

September 5, 20214 yr my 1st dose of pfizer was delivered into my upper left arm during the afternoon of the 4th of september, by the very nice people at my local hospital, samitivej suk. 49. during the early evening of the same day, i developed a splitting headache, and a mild feeling of nausea. additionally, i felt the need to drink several cups of tea throughout the evening, instead of my usual two. anyway, i took a couple of ibuprofen, and the symptoms had subsided by bedtime. the following morning, apart from a sore upper arm, i felt quite well again, so much so that i ordered my maid to prepare a batch of banana and chocolate ice cream milkshake. being the glutton that i am, i had consumed the lot within 30 mins. and am now laid out on the sofa with a protruding stomach, and feeling quite nauseas once again. i am looking forward to my second dose pfizer of later this month, however milkshakes will be off the menu for a considerable while thereafter!
