    It isn't as black and white as that if you read it through.

    "The data relate to vaccinations given between December 2020 and June 2022.

    Most of the young people who received the AstraZeneca jab before April 2021 would have been prioritised due to underlying health conditions, or because they were healthcare workers.

    Therefore, the 3.5 times greater risk cannot be generalised to the whole population, the ONS said."

    and

    "The number of deaths registered in England involving Covid-19 vaccines causing adverse effects is miniscule compared to the number administered - 59 compared with 144.7 million"

    and

    "The ONS also examined the increased risk of death after testing positive for Covid, and found it was raised for both cardiac and all-cause deaths among people.

    The risk was higher in those who were unvaccinated, they added.

    Analysing hospital deaths of those who tested positive for Covid, the researchers found 13 per cent were unvaccinated, compared to three per cent who were vaccinated.

    Vahé Nafilyan, senior statistician at the ONS, said: “We find no evidence that the risk of cardiac or all cause death is increased in the weeks following vaccination with mRNA vaccines.

    “However, receiving a first dose of a non-mRNA vaccine was associated with an increased risk of cardiac death in young women."

    Not disputing there is an increased risk, but it isn't as black and white as "I am right you are all wrong". The devil is in the detail.

    That's a little bit disingenuous mate. It's the Astra-Zeneca vaccine only, and that was stopped at the time anyhow for young people because of these concerns. The main take aways from the ONS study are actually -

    As usual, you would rather play the poster instead of having a conversation about the important topic at hand.

    Once again you refuse to admit that I was correct and that there is a real problem with woke left ideology.

    Once again on here you and others told me I was crazy when I explained trans ideology is harmful.

    You can spin the statistics however you like but the fact is I was right and the vaccines are harmful to young people.

    More harmful than natural immunity in those under 30.

    This is the first of many conclusive studies in my opinion. We will see. I hope I am wrong.

    That's a ridiculous statement. The fact is the vaccines are NOT harmful to the majority of young people.

    Tell that to my cousin whose life is permanently altered.

    Tell that to my friends mum that died of a heart attack two days after being coerced into taking it.

    Tell that to the thousands of vaccine related injured people that have received no media attention and told they are crazy.

    You missed out a decimal point. A simple error in the Telegraph link I'm sure you're happy to correct.
    "Young women had 3.5 times higher risk of death from heart issues after AstraZeneca jab"
    For those that don't have a Telegraph subscription and want to find out more without the hysterics.

    And you’re just someone with the IQ of a small child being a wind up merchant on a forum with almost no understanding of the issues at hand

    I'm not spinning the statistics though Os, those are the findings directly from the ONS that you quoted. "The vaccines" aren't harmful to young people - there's an increased risk with *one* of them (the non Mrna vaccine from AZ) that was pulled immediately at the time that a concern was raised (fairly early on in the whole process) for young women.

    The findings are actually broadly saying how incredibly effective and safe the vaccines actually were and are. I'm surprised by how clear that finding is (I personally thought that the findings would be somewhat more concerning). It's genuinely one of the most amazing pieces of human ingenuity in the last however long.

    As you say though, there's a lot more study to be done, and more conclusions to be reached, so we'll see. But when you consider the size of the data set and the speed of the rollout, it's incredible just how few issues there's been, and this study backs that up.

    Like everything in life, it comes with a risk. It's sad for those who were affected but the vaccines simply had to happen to get back to normality.

    You are very willing to trust big pharma based on faith that the long term studies will be fine.

    I am not. That’s the only difference between us.

    No, I'm not. I want to reiterate the point that there's a lot more data to come out from all this, and I hope that the data continues on the trend of showing how well they've actually done. But nobody can predict that at this point.

    My point this whole time is that the risk v reward is not acceptable in young people.

    I always said those 60+ should probably risk taking it. I just said that young people shouldn’t.

    I disagree totally that the vaccines had to be rolled out to get back to normal. I am not vaccinated and my life is totally normal. Covid was mild.

    Fair enough.

    Every day that goes by and study that gets done I am more glad that I never took it.

    I feel so sorry for those that were conned into taking a vaccine they didn’t need and are now suffering from it.

    I assume you don't travel abroad much then? I go to USA every year and they still require foreigners to be fully vaccinated to get in.

    I think that's probably fair enough, but we were very much dealing with an unknown. With hindsight, I'd perhaps agree that for the young it probably wasn't worth the risk, but for the compromised and the older (I would have said 40+) it made more sense. But then I'm also not qualified to say whether or not keeping half a population unvaccinated could have led to more issues (rate of infection, variants) etc.

    The issue in hand is your hysterical, inaccurate posting as pointed out by others on here who actually read the telegraph and ONS reports in full.

    FWIW I totally understand why some refused to have the vaccine. Vaccines are optional and that should never change. But you can't say they damage all young people's health because that simply isn't true. It's down to the individual to weight up the pros and cons and make an informed decision.
