No - that’s superstitious thinking. Go to any casino and you’ll see people tapping the screen on a lot machines in particular pattern or waving at the screen or even cashing out and putting money right back into the machine to “reset it”. Why? Because of pattern recognition. People realized doing certain things get an expected reaction and adopt and repeat them to get the desired results. Pavlovian that way.
Pattern recognition is a good thing but it’s the start to actual development of a scientific theory.
Vaxed and healthy 11 year olds dropping dead from strokes and heart attacks? Yeah that way outside the norm. Unhealthy infant getting a blood transfusion as part of other medical circulatory issues getting a blood clot? Not so much out the norm. Maybe it WAS mud blood and certainly there should be research into that - but if the infant had gotten non-vaxed blood and still got the clot do you think we’d even have heard of it?
All I’m saying is don’t get into the mentality of “if witches burn and wood burns and wood floats on water then if a woman floats on water… she’s a witch!”
More seriously, I find both the desire to blame the vaxx without proper investigation, and the way the authorities refuse to even investigate at all very frustrating.
The refusal of the authorities to not only NOT investigate but block even basic scientific curiosity in the matter is both infuriating and alarming. (And also a pattern we should be alerted to!)

'Who are you who are so wise in the ways of science?'
