Those reported to have died were all elderly and frail. The Norwegian Medicines Agency urged, therefore,
that it should be reconsidered whether to vaccinate the very weakest, despite claiming that the vaccine has "very little risk".
Four days before New Year's Eve, inoculation with the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine began in Norway. Since Svein Andersen (67) at the Ellingsrudhjemmet elderly home became the first Norwegian to take the jab,
over 33,000 Norwegians have received the vaccine in the subsequent weeks.
It was announced in advance that the vaccine may cause side effects of varying severity, and now the Norwegian Medicines Agency has mapped which ones have occurred in the country.
A total of 29 side effects were reported, yet with an alarming share of deaths.
"Of these, there are 13 deaths, nine serious side effects and seven less serious side effects", medical director of the Norwegian Medicines Agency Steinar Madsen
told national broadcaster NRK.
A total of 23 deaths have been
reported by the Norwegian Medicines Agency in connection with the vaccination. However, only 13 of these have been assessed so far.
Comment: Isn't it funny how when elderly and sick patients die of Covid it's a horrific tragedy that requires draconian measures to prevent, but sick and elderly patients dying of vaccine side effects is 'not a concern'?
