00:00:00.000 Dr. Henry, Minister Dix, we've had many questions come to our newsroom about the vaccine and
00:00:12.980 questions about whether there have been adverse reactions in connection with vaccines in this
00:00:17.920 province and whether there have been any deaths linked to the vaccine.
00:00:22.460 Yes, so absolutely. We have an adverse events called adverse events following immunization,
00:00:28.360 or we call them APHEs. So it is something that we have a very strong reporting system in Canada,
00:00:34.700 and every province reports it. It's part of an international group that looks at these across
00:00:41.980 the world, which is one of the reasons we know some of the very details about adverse events that
00:00:49.040 can happen after these vaccines. It's also how we picked up some very rare events like the,
00:00:54.900 excuse me, thrombocytic VIT after AstraZeneca. That happens very rarely. So yes, we have had serious
00:01:03.720 adverse events following immunization, and we call it that specifically because there are things
00:01:10.680 that happen after people are immunized that may or may not be related to the vaccine. We've had four
00:01:16.940 people in British Columbia who've had VIT after vaccines that have been caused by the vaccines.
00:01:22.400 We've had a very small number of people who've had myocarditis or pericarditis after receiving an mRNA vaccine.
00:01:33.800 There's been no deaths associated or directly related to vaccines.
00:01:40.120 We have had, and I was looking at the numbers earlier today, but it's a small number in the single digits of people who have died within 30 days of receiving a vaccine.
00:01:52.900 None of them in investigation have been directly linked to the vaccine itself.
00:01:58.620 But these are things that we follow very carefully.
00:02:02.180 There's a report that's published every two weeks on the BCCDC website, and you can see all the details of all of the serious adverse events that have happened.
00:02:11.060 Just to clarify, though, Dr. Henry, the number of adverse effects compared to the number of people who have been vaccinated in B.C. is a very, very small percentage.
00:02:23.800 It's less than one half of one percent.
00:02:30.540 You're absolutely right.
00:02:31.600 We've had in the vicinity of 400 serious adverse events in almost 10 million vaccine doses given in the province.
00:02:41.440 So, yes, these are of the safest vaccines, and the most, you know, one of the things that was really, really important when we started our vaccine program was making sure that we recorded every vaccine that went into everybody's arms.
00:02:56.580 And I know early on there was a lot of, you know, how come it's taking us so long?
00:03:00.500 Why is it taking us so long to get pharmacies on board?
00:03:02.700 It's because we need to get every single dose into our immunization registry so that we can monitor this safety over time.
00:03:10.940 And we know exactly which lot of which vaccine people received so we can follow up on any signals that happen around safety.
00:03:19.960 And that's been really, really important.
00:03:22.800 Far more likely to have adverse reactions to COVID than to vaccines.
00:03:27.760 It's become very clear.
00:03:28.940 By a factor of 10 to 100, you know, just as dramatically more severe illness across the board from being infected with COVID.
