(CDC) Elevated risk of stroke in elderly patients who receive Covid and high dose flu shot at same time


The following is an excerpt from The Vaccine Reaction.

On Jan. 13 2023, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the U.S. Centers for U.S. Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)) issued a public statement regarding the identification of a preliminary safety signal for ischemic stroke among adults over the age of 65 that occurs between one to 21 days after receiving Pfizer/BioNTech’s monovalent Comirnaty messenger RNA (mRNA) Covid-19 shot and the WT/OMI BA.4/BA.5 bivalent version of it.

The safety signal was detected in the CDC’s Vaccine Safety Datalink (VSD), however, a primary analysis conducted by federal public health officials did not find elevated stroke risk following Covid bivalent shots.

The first CDC analysis evaluated the risk of the stroke following a Covid bivalent shot. The study’s sample population included 5,397,278 adults over 65 years old, who were given either the monovalent Comirnaty bivalent WT/OMI BA.4/BA.5 shot or Moderna/NIAID’s bivalent Spikevax shot.

There were 2,886 cases of NHS; 2,641 cases of transient ischemic attack (TIA); 4,788 cases of NHS/TIA, and 808 cases of hemorrhagic stroke (HS) across both manufacturers of the Covid shots.

Approximately 10-15 percent of the sample cases claimed they had Covid disease between 31 to 365 days prior to suffering a stroke, and 34-45 percent had been given a high-dose or adjuvanted influenza vaccination at the same time.

The findings from the primary analysis showed that there were no statistically significant associations of an increased risk of stroke following administration of the Covid bivalent shots.

The VSD, which is a closed database operated by the CDC containing health maintenance organization medical records, also detected a risk of stroke in people who were given both the monovalent Comirnaty shot and/or the bivalent WT/OMI BA.4/BA.5 shot plus a high-dose or adjuvanted influenza vaccine on the same day, a risk that was higher than the risk of stroke following receipt of either the monovalent Comirnaty shot or bivalent WT/OMI BA.4/BA.5 shot given alone.

Given that the VSD primary analysis showed an elevated risk of stroke when the bivalent Covid shot and influenza vaccine were given simultaneously, the researchers conducted a secondary analysis to assess the risk of stroke following the administration of high-dose/adjuvanted influenza vaccine during the same period of the study.

Secondary Analysis Revealed Significantly Increased Risk of Stroke After High-dose/Adjuvanted Influenza Shots

The study sample included 6,961,413 eligible Medicare patients who were given high-dose/adjuvanted influenza vaccine.

There were 5,497 cases of NHS, 4,871 cases of TIA; 9,065 cases of NHS/TIA, and 1,498 cases of hemorrhagic stroke.

The results of the analysis showed a statistically significant increased risk of NHS following high-dose/adjuvanted influenza vaccine, suggesting that the high dose adjuvanted influenza vaccine may be responsible for the increase in strokes observed in the study.

It was found that for those people, who received both Covid shots and an influenza vaccine, there was a 20 percent increase in the risk of ischemic stroke with the bivalent WT/OMI BA.4/BA.5 shot, and a 35 percent increased risk of transient ischemic stroke after the bivalent Spikevax shot.

Vaccine Policy Remains Unchanged Despite Study Finding Increased Stroke Risk After Covid and High Dose/Adjuvanted Influenza Shots

Although the results of the study apparently will not result in changes in the CDC’s vaccine recommendations, federal officials are being urged to further explore the reported association in larger studies since the current study is observational and cannot prove causality.

Although the FDA would not allow for the researchers to be interviewed by reporters, Cherie Duvall-Jones, a spokeswoman for the FDA, made a statement saying the agency was “making this information known at this time through publication of this paper for transparency.”

  1. I suffered a massive stroke 8days after receiving the first moderna shot! At 49 and healthy so as usual no change in their lying data. It has debilitated me and my quality as well as my life’s longevity. I have never had a flu vaccine.

  2. Early 2021 DH had a TIA-aphasia after the first round of “covid” shots (2 dose), but it was never reported since the ER and follow-up claimed they could not find what caused the sudden aphasia problem.

    Other older friends also reported similar aphasia incidents.

    So the data on these shots and their sequelae are totally bogus. Since they denied any possible connection for at least the first year. after starting the mass innoculations. There will no written record connecting these two events.

  3. According to the article the FDA/CDC statement was January 13. Why is it just being reported now? Do you have a link to the original statement from the FDA/CDC?

  4. IT FEEL GOOD TO BE RIGHT SOMETIMES =ON THE FIRST DAY ON LINE I SAID= THE VIRUS IS A MONET TREE FOR THE DNC PARTY=(THAT IS SO RIGHT) I SAID IT WOULD NOT GO AWAY(RIGHT) AND THAT IT WAS MENT TO CONTROL THE WORLD POPUTIO(RIGHT ) HES LIKE AIDS HAS0 AND THEY BOOTH WAS MADE BY THE GOV OF THE WORLD.

  5. While listening to one of your podcasts, a PSA from the state health department played encouraging people to get their covid and flu vaccines– they could get them at the same time!!

    The irony….
