Elon Musk said his second Covid-19 shot “felt like I was dying” and nearly sent him to hospital. He shared a video of Helmut Sterz, who claimed vaccines “should never have been approved”. Sterz said deaths could be higher than reported. However, experts said these numbers are not proven and come from estimates, not studies. Officials in Germany rejected the claims as “false”. Health agencies said reported deaths after vaccines do not mean they were caused by them. Scientists added that serious side effects are rare and vaccines helped reduce deaths during the pandemic.
