EU Investigating More Side Effects From mRNA COVID Vaccines
European Union regulators are now looking into three new reported side effects from COVID-19 vaccines. This involves vaccines that utilize messenger RNA or mRNA. It’s a type of vaccine that uses a copy of an mRNA molecule to produce an immune response.

Three Side Effects Reported For Moderna and Pfizer-BioNTech vaccines
The success of the mRNA technology in warding off COVID-19 helped the entire world. Due to the unprecedented speed at which the vaccines received emergency authorization, there was not enough time to study any long-term side effects.
During the course of administering the vaccines, some reported side effects. These include fever, fatigue, headache, muscle pain, chills, diarrhea, and pain at the injection site. Most symptoms went away after a few hours.
However, regulators are studying some rare side effects that appear in some patients. A small number of people reported three distinct conditions after getting vaccinated with the Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna vaccines.
As a result, the European Medicines Agency initiated a study to learn more about these side effects. “Further data and analyses have been requested from the marketing authorization holder to support the ongoing assessment,” the agency said.
Three New Side Effects Reported
The three side effects involve the skin and the kidney. The first one, erythema multiforme, is a form of allergic skin reaction. Meanwhile, the second one is glomerulonephritis or inflammation of the kidneys. The third side effect is nephrotic syndrome, a kidney disorder that causes a leak of excessive protein in the urine.
All three are now under study by the safety committee of the European Medicines Agency (EMA), according to the regulator. The agency's Pharmacovigilance Risk Assessment Committee is now attempting to establish if the three conditions are actual side effects in each vaccine.
Benefits Still Weigh The Risks
Earlier last month, the EMA also discovered a possible link between mRNA vaccines and very rare heart inflammation. Despite the possible risks, the EMA and the World Health Organization have repeatedly stressed that everybody should still get vaccinated for COVID-19. They emphasized that the benefits of these vaccines outweigh any risks.
Pfizer, Europe’s biggest supplier of COVID-19 vaccines to the European Union, and Moderna have yet to respond and comment on the matter. 43.5 million doses of Spikevax, Moderna’s COVID-19 vaccine, already made it to the shoulders of millions of Europeans.
Meanwhile, Comirnaty, Pfizer’s vaccine co-developed with German company BioNTech, already administered more than 330 million doses.
Assessments Part of Routine Updates
The EMA did not provide any details on the number of side effects cases. However, the agency said they already requested more data from vaccine companies. At the moment, the EMA is not requiring either Moderna or Pfizer to change the labeling of their vaccines.
In addition, the EMA said that new assessments are part of routine updates to the safety section of all authorized vaccines' databases. Recently, it recommended adding menstrual disorders as a condition from getting the vaccines. This applies to vaccines from AstraZeneca and Johnson & Johnson.

Think I will pass on the vaccine as the king term affects are unknown and it doesn’t seem that the covid is as bad as they say because if it was there would be multitudes dead and dying up and down the streets!
We are past the point of vaccines those that wanted them got them, you will never achieve a 100% vaccine rate and with ever increasing side effects this will likely decrease the numbers vaccinated or bolstered. Focus should be on therapeutics without this we are doomed to failure and increasing complications.
The moment I laid eyes on Fauci I smelled him as a crook. How did he know there would be a pandemic even before Trump was elected? He wreaks to high heaven. Throw Bill Gates in the mix and follow the money. There isn’t enough money, shame, bullying, nagging, or touting the benefits of this jab to make my husband or me take this garbage. Among our friends who have taken the Moderna jab one has had a massive stroke, the other (our daughter) is having unexplained exhaustion and horrible intolerance to heat. She has to stop and go to bed in the middle of the day because she is to tired. She has a career and a seven-year-old son. This is happening to our indefatigable daughter.
After listening to a video with a named doctor, with credentials, and the offer to sit down and discuss this so-called vaccine using the science with professionals, I wouldn’t touch this jab with someone else’s arm. She has a handle on the endgame of this jab and it’s not humanitarian, it’s for tracking purposes. Why are some of the ingredients proprietary? Shouldn’t we have a right to know what we’re being experimented with? No, of course not. If people knew they were being lab rats for Bill Gates tracking system wouldn’t most people say –NO FREAKING WAY!!!! FOLLOW THE MONEY TRAIL!!! Too many people want a global world to rule. I want no part in furthering that ilk. Evil is most definitely afoot and they are using this virus to control it.
Why have they poo-pooed all the therapeutics that are highly effective in treating this virus? The virus survival rate is great. Most of the people who succumb to the virus have comorbidity issues and many of the so-called deaths attributed to the virus were not from the virus at all. Hospitals were incentivized to call the deaths Covid to get more money. This whole deal stinks to high heaven and the powers that be have manipulated people into taking shots that will come back to bite many people. This evil will out.
This O’Biden administration (Obama’s third reign) is in this up to their necks. Why isn’t letting in all these illegals (carrying Covid to our country knowingly) a crime against humanity???? How about the humanity of the American people???? This isn’t to help the underprivileged, it’s to increase the voter base of the crooked left — plain and simple.
Feel free to publish this comment. People should be thinking beyond being sheep.
Absolutely correct! Focus on the therapeutics. Take supplements to keep your vitamin levels up (especially D) and forge on.
I agree Bee ! This is all about tracking and control! I had a kidney transplant there for I’ll not be getting any jab of any kind ! The biggest thing in kidney failure you worry about is the protein you expel through your urine , my specialist and I had this talk back in March and I told her no way I’d be getting this vaccine, I told her like it was . It’s supposed to boost your immune system but you give me meds 3 times a day to keep my immune system down so why should I take it? The I said who’s got all the money in this? Bill Gate Bloomberg Soros and many more globalists that want population control! No takes the Lord will let me know when it’s my time!
The government has made such a mess on the messaging about the virus, vaccines and masking no one believes a word that they say. So most people I know are tacking a wait and see approach. The government and President Trump and Biden administrations share much of the blame and Biden particularly since he and his VP both stated that they wouldn’t take the vacation since President Trump had anything to do with it! Now they are backpedaling and say everyone needs to take it and if they don’t will force them, can annoy one say tirents and leading this country to ruin!
I will never be injected with the Wuhan Poison! Why would anyone need an injection for a virus that has a 99.79% survival rate? How effective is the influenza vaccine each year? How many people die from the “regular” flu each year? More people die from a myriad of health issues or diseases and yet there is NO world wide or national mandate to stop this diseases from occurring. Heart disease, cancer, etc. are the leading causes of death in the USA and we as a society do not demand changes in the preparation of our foods, the harvesting of our foods, nor the types of foods and chemicals within them sold in grocery stores. So, STOP the insanity of this poison injection is about “safety” because it is 100% about CONTROL! The Government Privileged in DC are responsible for the current crisis and are the Pandemic destroying America. Welcome to Venezuela on STEROIDS!
Multitudes (over half a million in US alone) are dead, and more people including children, are dying today. They aren’t “up and down the streets”. They are in the ICUs, crematoriums and cemeteries! Please get vaccinated to protect yourself and others. Don’t wait until it’s you or your loved one fighting for air, dying or planning a funeral. Peace be with you and have a blessed day.
Jan – Please feel free to take care of yourself and your loved ones. I will NOT put my loved ones in the hands of the poisoners that are pushing the vaccines. I have a healthy 19 year old son…why risk his heart? My husband and I are healthy as well. Thanks but no thanks. If you believe the vax works then you are safe from us!!!
Wife and I had the vaxx no apparent side effects will get the booster if recommended. Therapeutic drugs are needed despite the vaccine or rather with the vaccine for those who can’t or won’t be vaccinated.Reading these comments shows a certain hysteria that no amount of logic or reasoning will overcome. Some of the rhetoric is reminiscent of the anti flu vaccine comments. Remember that often touted survival rate does not include the elderly and infirm.
Everything I’ve heard about people suffering with Covid-19 reminds me of my bout of Hong Kong flu in ’68. I was going to take this shot until my kids warned me to look into it. Since I’ve had an ischemic stroke and two blood clots in my legs, I decided I was not a good candidate for this experiment. I have been on the HCQ prevention protocol for a few months now. I wish someone would seek US people out who decided to go on prevention protocols rather than submit. It wouldn’t exactly be a controlled study, but the results would be interesting.
Why can’t you have the vaccine shot at half the mg at 4 weeks apart, for people that have health problems. Why do we need boaster shots so soon. Well 200 mg 3 times within a year affect a person with or without health problems. The drug companies have not tested the long term yet.
Search for “Openvaers”, click on the menu, then click on “red boxes” summary page. 545,ooo vaxx injuries,over 12,000 deaths, etc.this website is from the CDC. estimated reports = 1% of actual cases
Hey Herald, you cant treat a flu with a “vaccine” and this isnt a vaccine, even by the FDA’s standards. The masks don’t work and the vaccine won’t work and rhey will be chasing this pipe dream for eternity. You can’t treat a flu like smallpox. Why do you think we’re seeing a spike in cases, during summer, with a virus that has a photo sensistivity? Your logic is extremely flawed and illogical. You do realize they have been trying to creat a corona vaccine since 2000? And everything and everyone injected with those was dead within 4 yeards, mostly from lung disease. And this is a new strain never seen before and they developed, tested and released it in under a year? If you believe that, I have a bridge I want to sell you. If it’s so safe why were all 3 of the repeat serial felons, granted immunity from liabilit? Companies that when they did have liability, knowingly put dangerous and deadly prodicts out to the public?! Why all of the silencing of adverse reactions? You my friend have 0 critical thinking skills. But hey, thanks for the laughs! Better up your life insurance for your family, they’re going to need it!
Anyone who knows their history will not take this vaccine. Google “us experimentation on its citizens”. Check out the wikipedia page with its sources. This is nothing new. If it were a vaccine, half those hospitalized wouldnt be fully vaccinated. So what is it? Why are the pushing and mandating something the fda refused to give full clearance on? That is a violation of the 14th amendment. My doctor friend has tested thousands for covid and he says every positive result is also positive for influenza a or b. Its the flu, people. The govt refuaes to supply his lab with a control sample of the virus. Why? Why push a dangerous vaccine? Because it isnt a vaccine, it is a giant experiment and the mrna should concern people…that can be activated by a trigger in the future. Gates is probably creating his own droid army.
I had a serious case of the covid last summer. By media standards I shouldbe dead but I survived. At the one year mark I tested positive for the antibodies. So why do o need the jab? I have natural immunity which everyone else that survived should also have. Very little is said about us and the lame streammedia try not to say anything about us. I have seen reports (real science reports) that say we don’t need the shot. I have see
N others that say there may be adverse reactions in those that have strong immunity. So o will have to be dragged away and strapped down before I will let them give it to me.
Your all right. Lets do something about NOW!
