Sounds very like someone fainting because they can't manage needles

Or simply didn't eat beforehand maybe?

Whilst waiting for clarification from the Op I will simply say we've done well in excess of 125000 vaccinations at the centre I volunteer at and there's been one case of a guy feeling faint due to needle phobia and one lady post jab who 'felt warm' and was anxious prior to the jab and was fine to walk out..

For three such events to take place as it looks is being claimed certainly does seem extremely unlikely but will wait to see what the op says..

Yes, the numbers do point to it being overwhelmingly safe, and better than the alternative.

Same.

Our centre does well over a thousand jabs a day, 7 days a week, 9am to 8pm. They've had a handful of faints, all handled with basic first aid. We've had a couple of vomiters (anxiety related). Zero allergic reactions or other such things at all.

I've seen one vomiter - the girl looked pale before she had the vaccine. I triple checked she felt ok, she said yes, I gave it and she walked outside and puked. Tea, biscuits and a sit down cured everything....

"I wonder if you'll hear of this on mainstream news, doubt it... not the first and won't be the last unfortunately "

Do you think the news publishes a story about every panic attack, fainting episode or other minor medical issue experienced by the UK population in a day? It'd make a very tedious and repetitive 10 O'clock News: "our reporter in Milton Keynes brings us news that Enid, age 73, stubbed her toe on the way into her local Spar, when out for a pint of milk. Despite the heroic efforts of the first aiders who rushed to assist, they could not prevent her tights from laddering. Enid's family say they will be investigating the denier of the nylons, because they were definitively advertised as ladder-free. Now, to our reporter in South Shields, and reports that a man tripped and tore his jeans on his way to work...."

Sounds like a rather unusual series of events in such a short space of time. Just unlucky maybe?

It’s recommended not to take any form of pain relief before you have the vaccination.

This is complete nonsense! Never before has a single drug or drugs been used across the entire globe in such volumes, so it makes sense that the total number of reported side effects will be higher than other drugs that are used in a narrower geographic area and in smaller volumes.

Do you really think Governments the world over would all be able to hide it if people were keeling over left, right and centre? India are trying to hide the number of dead, but inconveniently, the bodies keep floating to the top of the Ganges and deposit themselves in the silt at the sides.

Satellite images of mass graves in Iran in the first wave made it impossible for them to cover up the epidemic there.

It's ridiculous to think Governments that can't hide a piece of paper for 5mins would be able to hide huge volumes of seriously vaccine injured people. I'm not just referring to the UK here, but Governments the world over, seeing as most countries are using the same pool of vaccine types.

These are the signs of panic attacks and one person having a panic attack will unfortunately cause others who are of a nervous disposition to do the same. It's not the content of the syringe, it's the act of jabbing a sharp item into your body (same for blood tests, for example). Jabbing a metal rod into a muscle is a form of injury and the body can react with the old "run away from the ouchy thing" response.

People have panic attacks, racing heart, raised blood pressure just with having non invasive medical appointments, so obviously stabbing someone with a sharp item will potentially increase the risk of a stress response.

I find that hard to believe.

When I went for my flu jab last year a woman fainted just after receiving the jab, when we had the BCG at school one girl threw up, one fainted and worked herself up so much because she didn't like needles she had a massive panic attack.

Iv been to both my covid jabs and nothing happened while I was their, same both times my partner and his mother, father,step mother and sister went for theirs on different days at different centres.

Of course these things happen but its not uncommon but doesn't mean the vaccine is unsafe.

Millions of people have had these jabs without widespread side effects like this and predominantly they have incredibly high safety profiles. Their effectiveness is also phenomenally good.

That several people responded in a similar style sounds like social influence or something like mass hysteria.

Investing energy into the scientific evidence is very worthwhile.

As Birmingham as a whole has recorded zero admissions from the vaccination centres today and knowing the very strict guidelines all the centres are operate to ensure people’s safety I can only really conclude:

Your friend doesn’t like needles and feinted, and you and the girls suffered a bit of an emotional panic attack based on your fears.

Glad you’ve recovered quickly and can share your experiences on fab though, needless to say even a mild reaction to any one of the three vaccines would have required more than taking outside for some fresh air.

Which vaccine out of interest?

Strange... ours and every other NHS trust clearly records any vaccination centre admissions within our covid-19 reporting (and no, we don’t have an evil Tory with a red pen altering them at any stage of the process). Bearing in mind virtually all serious reactions occur within 15 minutes of the treatment (this is why you’re asked to wait for 15 mins before departure) then any problem requiring medical care should be logged in this manner, or certainly the vast majority.

What those figures show are very minimal numbers, considering the size of our local centres (the ethiad stadium (vaccinates 1000 a day) etc) we are still to get to double figures of admissions since the programme began.

If you don’t need people to comment, why post your mild panic attack on a forum? The post in it’s entirety seems a tad overly dramatic and as others have commented, a really poor attempt to suggest four individuals had a bad reaction to the vaccine when in reality you’re all just a little flakey with needles.

Being part of a team delivering vaccinations I've sent one or two people faint. This has been through anxiety, feeling overwhelmed, standing in long queues etc. They've all come back for their 2nd jab because they know how important it is and realised after the 1st that it doesn't even hurt

This. People underestimate the psychological factors in things like this. I think we have had maybe 3 faints that I am aware off across the 3 centres I help at. But being someone that is terrified of needles ( if I'm in a pod I try not to look in the direction of the needles) i can tell you if i see the needles it gives me heart racing.. feeling sick. When I had mine my heart rate shoot through the roof... then after plummeted. This can and does cause issues. It was the needle not the vaccine for me

I don't disagree, though for that correlation to be meaningful you need a sample size greater than 1. Fortunately, the sample size on Fabs is far higher.

Always remember we are all difrent and react to the same drugs in difrent ways.6 month testing wasent long inough before giving it out.eg a bee sting may hurt me but kill you or you may have a jab and be ok but i may have a stroke and die.in a few years after wev been used as guiney pigs the true total of the jab side efects will come out into the open. Remember flamidamide exactly same as we are been told now .2 years standard testing as normal for all drugs before covid

If big pharma were all homicidal maniacs, you'd think that there'd be plenty of more recent examples.

I'm a little needle phobic (it's actually pain phobic) so I made a really conscious effort to relax my arm just before my second jab. Oh my goodness, what a difference that made. I barely felt it.

I actually said to the man with the needle, I wish dental ones were that painless and he laughed and said "I am a dentist and I agree with you!"

I thanked him profusely for helping.

My first jab, no adverse reactions, sat in the waiting area along with others all of us chatting away.. no one had any affect, in fact we thought we’d been give a placebo jab..

second jab, only very mild pain if touching the jab area, otherwise nothing really..

after affects of anaesthetic jabs are far worse in my opinion..

In all my years as a medic in the army, sticking needles in recruits, it was the blokes that fainted the most, especially the big 'uns.

Someone would shout 'man down!' and we would all pounce, taking blood out and shoving needles in.

Same.

Same. We have had 6 that felt faint and one that actually did. The one that did fainted before the vaccine as she had got so stressed and worried about the needle.

All have felt fine after a drink and a biscuit and all but one hadn't eaten that day as they were nervous.

None of these issues were caused by the vaccine just a normal stress reaction to needles.

Happebd regularly in surgery when taking bloods and the staff know how to deal with it.

Can't stress enough how you should have a decent meal and something to drink (not alcohol) before your appointment and try to keep calm.

Cause they was bought into the same room as where we was taken

One said her heart rate felt as it was racing fast, and other said she went into a shock with fear.

All the sytmptoms you describe are stress reactions and seeing someone else faint and feel unwell tends to upset others.

It is not necessarily a reaction to the vaccine and more a reaction to the situation.

A few of them came down with covid last December. They pulled through and every single one of them have had both vaccinations. Not one word of complaint or doubt. Nor did they need any persuasion. Some of them had minor side effects but they shrugged them off.

My risk assessment was based on the preliminary Valneva phase 1/2 data. I signed up for the trial on the basis of, if I got the Valneva, 2/150 people had moderate reactions for 48 hours.

That's not a risk I'd ask anyone else to take, but - and it's funny how I'm also called scared for not meeting - I was personally prepared to risk myself to help others on that basis. All the licensed vaccines have much more robust and promising safety data than that.

You realise that when you get any vaccine you are still capable of contracting the illness for a few weeks after the fact. You can also get ill and this is a good thing as it's your body helping build up immunity and recognising and remembering what it is that it needs to attack. I swear every antivax person on these threads doesn't even have the most basic grasp of science. They just read ridiculous articles on the Internet and take it as fact

I wonder how many pro vaxxers are worried now prof whitty has said that your vaccinations are pretty much useless to the new variants.

If that's what he said, no, I'm not worried. I'm doing all I can and am more than happy to have more jabs to keep doing all I can.

"I won’t be taking it as it’s not safe enough for me

What would make it safe for you?"

Nothing right now. I try to stay healthy by exercising and not smoking. I don’t want the vaccine right now

"As these injections are still in their experimental stage with medium to long term effects still unknown I think I'll wait and see how people are being affected.

The fact that people still contract the virus after being injected still concerns me.

Your body will still build antibodies to a virus without taking the vaccine.

I've not been following closely, but a quick Google suggests something like, we'll be at risk from variants for awhile. The other stuff I'm following suggests that the vaccines provide excellent - but not as good - protection against variants in most cases.
