70,841Please remember that studies of VAERS estimated that from 90 to 99% (the 99% was a Harvard study) of adverse side effects are never reported. I assume 1% to 2% of side effects are reported.
These are only short term adverse side effects.
No one knows the the long term adverse side effects
It is true that somewhat more people may be aware of VAERS than in the past ... but unlike past vaccines, the COVID vaccine is very political.
I can easily imagine Democrats being reluctant to report adverse side effects.
Two relatives of mine -- both Democrats -- are people who did have significant side effects.
