ARCHIVED - Spain registers 300 deaths following Covid vaccines
Experts say that in the vast majority of cases the patient was suffering from an underlying condition
It has now been confirmed that up until September 5, a total of 41,751 notifications of adverse symptoms following the administration of the coronavirus vaccine have been recorded in Spain, which reflects 62 reactions per 100,000 doses. Of these, 8,515 were considered serious and 300 resulted in a fatality. This is out of a total of 66,835,878 doses of the Covid vaccination administered in this country.
According to the 8th Report of Covid-19 Vaccines, published on Thursday September 16 by the Spanish Agency for Medicines and Health Products (Aemps), the reported side-effects cannot be automatically attributed to the coronavirus jabs considering the “large majority” of fatalities occurred in patients with previous health complaints whose deaths could have easily been caused by other treatments.
Some 88% of the notifications correspond to people aged between 18 and 65 with the most complaints relating to women (76%). The most frequently reported adverse events continue to be generalised symptoms such as fever and pain in the arm, headaches and dizziness, along with muscle ache and joint stiffness.
The Pfizer vaccine has been by far the one which has reported the most side-effects, at 23,301, but it is important to note that this has been the most widely-used jab in Spain (more than 52 million doses to date). Of these, 4,709 cases were considered serious.
The pharmaceutical giant has recently begun listing myocarditis (inflammation of the heart muscle) and pericarditis (inflammation of the heart membrane) on its technical data sheet as possible side-effects, since 98 notifications of this kind were reported up until August 8 in Spain. Most of these cases occurred in men (62%) after the second dose and in the first week after the vaccination was administered. In two reported cases, the patients died.
