Sad misinterpretation of science by media sensationalism for click bait. It shows everything that's wrong with today's "science reporting." >>> thread... https://www.fool.com/investing/2020/10/05/report-moderna-and-pfizer-vaccine-trial-participan/

1. In double blind trials, recipients do not know if they got vaccine or placebo. Symptoms could be COVID19. Did they get tested? Did the "reporter" ask?

2. One person described his symptoms as intense. Others describe the experience worth the vaccine. All subjective. >>

3. All reactions happened after the second dose. IF the effects were due to the vaccine, it's clear the phase 3 trial will yield data needed to make vaccines safe, ie. dosage, intervals till 2nd does, cautionary warning for momentary reactions, etc. None of it reported. >>>

This kind of unbalanced sensationalist reporting is the source of conspiracy theories, pushing people away from getting the vaccines.

To be fair...I just checked the author's bio...and he's NOT a science reporter. So check your sources, and don't rely on business/sport/music reporters for science reporting. #FollowTheScience #AskQuestions
