Nearly two years after the global distribution of messenger RNA (mRNA) COVID-19 shots, it is now known that these biologics cause mild side effects that include pain at the injection site, fever, fatigue, headache, muscle pain, chills, and diarrhea, and they also can cause severe adverse effects such as anaphylaxis, heart inflammation (myocarditis/pericarditis), thrombosis (blood […]
Some 920 applications have been filed in the United Kingdom for compensation related to injuries and deaths of people following COVID-19 vaccinations.
