It's more upsetting that people took how rare problems were as gospel and pretty much made doubters sound stupid for not wanting it injected into their body. Now more cases pop up and it's "Ah well back then the data said..."

Hindsight bias is always 20/20 but I agree.
I think all we can do is learn from this experience and not vilify people next time this comes around. All it takes is for you to be that unlucky statistic and it's all over. Imagine being one of those that have been affected by the AZ blood clots. I don't even know how I'd even begin to live life knowing that there were other safer options out there and I took the jump because the government said it's all good.
