Trotted out on the beeb (R3) propa-headlines this AM. Getting natural, balanced, long-term immunity to this somewhat-nastier-than-usual flu is worse for your health, you see, than being a profit-centre for BPh.

“Blood clots are extremely rare. Don’t have nightmares” as Jill Dando, or someone like that, used to say with a high degree of probability.

Inappropriate to laugh, but…
My older son insists that Matt Groening is a time traveller who planted warnings throughout The Simpsons, while Futurama depicts the age he comes from. Swelling with pride to know the Conspiracist lineage is in good hands

Not sure if this is the same story but a tweet from WHO quotes a stat that blood clots (sorry “rare blood clots”) caused by vaxxxine (AZ specifically iirc) are one-ninth the level of blood clots arising from covid.
My kneejerk reaction to this is divide the number of jabbed folk by nine and then compare that number with the number of “cases”.
If you deviously inflate the latter figure I guess the balance of risk looks less stark.
