Two new analyses by the US FDA have flagged up possible health concerns about the Covid shots made by Pfizer and Moderna. But the agency stresses the links are not definitive.
Two analyses by FDA flagged possible health concerns about the Covid shots. But agency stresses links are not definitive and even if they are - risks are tinyThe Covid vaccine may be linked to a small increase in stroke risk when given alongside a high-dose flu shot, health officials say.
For comparison, in 2022 the death rate from Covid in over-85s was 1,224 per 100,000, with US health experts saying vaccination still outweighs the small risk. The papers were posted online last week, and have not yet been vetted for publication in a scientific journal. Experts in vaccine safety said the studies were well done.In the first analysis, FDA officials analyzed medical claims of nearly 5.4 million Americans aged 65 and older who were enrolled in the government-run health insurance program Medicare.
In absolute terms, there were an additional 3.1 strokes per 100,000 doses following the Pfizer and flu shots and 3.3 strokes per 100,000 doses of the flu and Moderna shots.
