Dr. Peter English, a retired consultant in communicable disease control, told the Science Media Centre:
“When a vaccine is administered to millions of people. It is inevitable that some adverse events — that would have happened anyway — will happen shortly after vaccination.”
“It is most regrettable that countries have stopped vaccination on such ‘precautionary’ grounds: it risks doing real harm to the goal of vaccinating enough people to slow the spread of the virus, and to end the pandemic.”
