Whenever an asshole tries to influence your actions or even your opinion by stating "its the science" or "follow the science" without producing the data... .
understand that you have probably witnessed a
a. a logical fallacy - an appeal to authority,... or
b. an an outright abuse of a corrupted mind.
In most circumstances a real expert concerned about the truth or science
provides supporting data and disclaimers about the limitations of their opinion.
So while dochebag gwBE-lying and others tried to denigrate the concept of being skeptical in absence of the data... we now see... being skeptical was wise.
AstraZeneca: German team discovers thrombosis trigger
Scientists at Greifswald teaching hospital claim they have discovered the cause of blood clots among a small number of AstraZeneca vaccine recipients. Doctors say a targeted treatment can now be used.

Researchers at the Greifswald teaching hospital in northern Germany said on Friday that they had discovered the cause of the unusual blood clotting found in some recipients of the
AstraZeneca coronavirus vaccine, public broadcaster Norddeutscher Rundfunk (NDR) reported.
The investigation showed how the vaccine
caused rare thrombosis in the brain in a small number of patients.
The discovery means that targeted treatment can be offered to those who suffer similar clotting, using a very common medication.
The success was a result of cooperation between the Greifswald hospital, state health regulator the Paul Ehrlich Institute (PEI), as well as doctors in Austria — a nurse there died from thrombosis in the brain after being vaccinated with the AstraZeneca jab.
The researchers emphasized that treatment would only be possible in patients where blood clots appear, rather than as a preventative treatment.
The information has been shared with hospitals around Europe.
Symptoms like continuous headache, dizziness or impaired vision lasting more than three days after vaccination need further medical check-ups, according to the German Research Association for Thrombosis and Hemostasis in a statement on the recent findings.
The Greifswald findings have not yet been published in a scientific journal and therefore have not been reviewed by independent experts. The Paul-Ehrlich-Institute in Germany is now looking into the scientists' work.
AstraZeneca jabs back on track in Europe
Germany, along with several other EU member states, suspended the use of the AstraZeneca vaccine on Monday following reports of unusual blood clots.
On Thursday the
European Medicines Agency (EMA) said that there were no proven links between the vaccine and the clots, based on the information they had. They also stated that the benefits of the jab outweighed any possible risks.
In response to the updated guidance, Germany was
set to restart vaccinations with the British-Swedish jab on Friday.
By Thursday, Germany had administered over 10 million doses of COVID-19 vaccines, including the AstraZeneca vaccine.
NBC news was referring to a concern about blood clots...
Carlson was saying you want people to get vaccinated...
address their concerns... show the data.
What is wrong with that?
By the way... blood clots are a concern... are they not?
Should we not want to know whether the vaccine(s) are contributing to that issue?
"LONDON — Several European countries halted the rollout of the world-leading Oxford-AstraZenaca
Covid-19 vaccine this week because of
reports some patients suffered blood clots."
