Covid: CDC finds possible safety issue in Pfizer and BioNTech vaccine

Last Friday, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) warned of a possible change in the safety of the Covid-19 vaccine produced by Pfizer and BioNTech. Studies have identified a type of stroke in newly vaccinated 65-year-olds.

Although the authority indicated that it is unlikely that this deficiency poses a fatal risk for all those vaccinated. The analysis showed signs that people who received the bivalent vaccine could suffer strokes for several days. Despite this, the agency asked the public to continue to keep control of the coronavirus vaccine up to date to avoid the risk of infection and spread of the virus.

Similarly, the CDC has pointed out that so far this safety warning has not been presented in Moderna’s backing of the bivalent. Researchers continue to compare and study the relationship of these changes with the medical histories of vaccinated, to determine if underlying diseases could be one of the reasons this is happening.

For its part, Pfizer guarantees that this type of stroke has not been observed in other countries. Consequently, The US Agency for Disease Control and Prevention is not proposing changes to vaccination practices. “It is unlikely that the signal in the VSD represents a true clinical risk, we believe it is important to share this information with the public,” the statement said.

The data collected to date will be evaluated by the FDA and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in the coming days.at the meeting of the Advisory Committee on Vaccines and Related Biologicals, which is expected to take place on 26 January.
