The CDC says just over 80% of those in the U.S. took at least one shot of the COVID-19 vaccine.
But now a new report shows that millions who took it had adverse reactions.
Described as the largest-ever COVID vaccine study, the Global Vaccine Data Network (GVDN) in New Zealand examined 99 million people who took the vaccine in the U.S and across eight countries. Their findings concluded that millions, after getting the vaccine showed an increase in heart and brain conditions.
Researchers focused on 13 areas of certain medical conditions in a time frame after individuals the shot. They noticed a connection where people were seeing an increase in neurological, blood and heart-related medical conditions.
GVDN stats showed that in some of the types of MRNA vaccines, patients found themselves with a higher risk of myocarditis, which causes the heart muscle to inflame.
Other medical concerns from taking the COVID-19 shot included a higher risk of blood clots in the brain and an increase in Guillain-Barre syndrome, a neurological disorder in which the immune system attacks the nerves. Inflammation of part of the spinal cord and swelling in the brain.
GVDN evaluated evidence of a link of the MRNA vaccines and myocarditis, particularly following the second vaccine shot. These shots were made by Pfizer Inc., BioNTech SE, and Moderna Inc., the University of Oxford and AstraZeneca Plc.
The Moderna vaccine also raised concerns when patients would follow up with another shot that became a second and third dose of mRNA vaccines.
Numbers reveal that over 13.5 billion doses of Covid vaccines have been given throughout the world over the past three years.
