There was some lack of clarity. Most people produced antibodies from this vaccine. Antibodies to COVID-19, that is. Some small portion produced antibodies to VITT(?) or whatever and only some of them experienced complications from that, which is what you were referring to. It took me a few minutes to understand what you were saying, too.
I talked about how rare it was.
No one in this thread has made any political comments, except all the people hunting for imaginary people making this political.
Dismissing COVID vaccines as being ineffective is, sadly, political, and it wasn't clear if you were talking about COVID antibodies or the different antibodies that caused this rare side effect.

I've already explained everything above.
