Hungary’s “deadliest” COVID vaccine revealed

Considering the rate of deaths compared to the number of vaccines administered, the Chinese Sinopharm jab proved to be the “deadliest” in Hungary. Below you can read further details about the findings of a recently published research paper that examined the issue.

According to the data of the koronavirus.gov.hu, 29,649 Hungarians died because of the coronavirus in 2021. Meanwhile, the National Public Health Centre knows about 28,287 people who passed away. The difference comes from the data of the settlements reporting fewer than three deaths. Authorities did not publish those numbers to avoid the identification of the diseased.

Based on a recently published research of atlatszo.hu, the number of those, who died before receiving their second jab was the highest, 1,640 in Hungary. They died in fewer than 28 days after they got their first vaccine. 1,431 did not even want a second jab. They died more than 28 days after the first jab was administered.

0.22 percent of the people who received the Sinopharm vaccine as their first died. That rate was 0.13 percent in the case of those people who received the Chinese vaccine as their second. Meanwhile, it was 0.09 percent in the case of those, who received the Sinopharm as their third jab. As a result, atlatszo.hu said that the Chinese vaccine caused the highest rate of deaths among all the jabs. In the case of the Pfizer vaccine, these numbers were “only” 0.13, 0.09 and 0.02 percents. The third place was Astrazeneca’s (0.12 percent) regarding the first jab, Moderna’s (0.07 percent) and Janssen’s (0.02 percent) in the case of the second and third shots.
