Yeah, but what's the chance of getting a blood clot? Infinitesimal but they paused it. People are basically innumerate when it comes to probability and assessing risk. They freak out over a health scare then get in their car and drive somewhere, when that has a much greater risk-factor than most things in their daily lives.
The whole thing is so fake right now, now we are to believe that pulling (I hate this new usage of "paused") a vaccine won't affect supply. Lies transparent as tissue, a child can see through them. That sort of message from labcoat-wearing "science communicators" (puke) who believe in a just lie is what gives science a bad name. None of the people at the benches is under any illusions about any of this; put them in front of the cameras and watch the truth come out for good or ill.
