In Korea, the 6th and 9th day after vaccination for the new coronavirus infection (Corona 19) began, and as deaths were reported after vaccination, anxiety about adverse reactions is growing.
Comprehensive opinions of major overseas cases and experts seem to show that the causality between death and vaccination is not high, but the authorities are keen on the point that if the vague anxiety about vaccination itself spreads, it can lead to’refusal of vaccination’.
The government said that there were no problems with the safety of the vaccine, as most of the initial priority vaccination subjects were hospitalized patients, and many deaths occurred in overseas where vaccination was already more extensive, but the vaccination and causality were not known. Is emphasized.
◇ Total 7 people reported death after vaccination… Causality cannot be confirmed in Norway and the UK.
According to the Corona 19 Vaccination Response Promotion Team, 7 people died after the Corona 19 vaccination as of the previous day. All seven received the AstraZeneca vaccine.
Their age range was 1 in their 20s, 1 in their 40s, 3 in their 50s, and 2 in their 60s, all suffering from underlying diseases. All six patients, except for one in the severely handicapped facility, were hospitalized patients.
A number of death reports were also received in Norway and the UK, which started vaccination before Korea.
By the 16th of last month, 93 people died in Norway, where the first vaccination was completed for about 240,000 people and the second vaccination was performed for 73,000 people. All of them were living in nursing homes and were known to have received the Pfizer vaccine.
Norwegian authorities noted that an average of 50 deaths per day in nursing homes and other similar institutions were reported, and explained that deaths occurred within three weeks of vaccination, but that this does not indicate a connection with vaccination.

In the UK, the 1st vaccination was done to 17 million people by the 14th of last month, of which 610,000 people have completed the 2nd vaccination.
There were 402 deaths after vaccination, of which 205 were AstraZeneca vaccinations and 197 Pfizer vaccinations.
Most of the deaths were elderly or underlying diseases, and British authorities also announced that the causality of vaccination was not confirmed.
◇ Number of reports of adverse reactions 800 cases per day… “It can increase with anxiety.”
In Korea, in addition to 20 cases of severe adverse reactions such as death,’anaphylaxis’ (severe systemic allergic reaction), and convulsions, 1,558 suspected mild adverse reactions were received. On the last 4 days alone, 860 cases increased.
A similar trend was observed when vaccinating against influenza (flu) last year.
At that time, a total of 110 cases of death after vaccination were reported, which is an explosive increase compared to the two cases in the previous year.
However, none of these cases have finally recognized the causality between vaccination and death.
In particular, as a result of comparing the mortality rates of the vaccinated group and the non-vaccinated group among the elderly 65 years or older during the vaccination program, the mortality rate of the non-vaccinated group was 6.2 to 8.5 times higher.

Experts pointed out that the Corona 19 vaccine was developed in a short time and that it can be more sensitive to routine adverse reactions as it requires a given vaccine.
Daewoo Seol, a professor at Chung-Ang University College of Pharmacy, said, “Vaccines feel anxious and can report minor symptoms as side effects.” I will.”
He pointed out, however, that simple adverse reactions and side effects caused by vaccination should be distinguished.
Professor Seol said, “A side effect means that symptoms that should not occur are present and inflict harm to our body. Among these, if there is a life-threatening or sequelae, it is called a’severe side effect’, and if it is not, it is called a’mild side effect’.” “After vaccination, some degree of fever and swelling of the body are not a side effect, but a reaction (due to the vaccination). For example, it should be distinguished from cases where fever symptoms are too prolonged or swelling is not common.” said.
