You're more trusting than me I guess because I'd trust neither.

There's a reason double-blind studies are used in medicine. Anecdotes from individuals aren't very useful.

Especially in the current situation where 5.5 billion doses of vaccine have been injected so every coincidence that can happen will happen.

For example - about 140 Australians die from a heart attack each week.

If say about 2% of Australians are getting a jab each week right now, then at least one person a week will have a heart attack right after they have the jab.

The jab didn't cause it - that heart attack would have happened anyway.
