Molecular Mimicry between hPF4 and SARS-CoV-2 Spike Protein: Response to Comment.

[2] Hafeez et al, in their review of the literature on COVID-19 vaccine-associated thrombosis with thrombocytopenia syndrome (TTS), including 25 articles and 69 patients, reported that "patients having received messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) COVID-19 vaccines are also present." In fact, of the 69 patients with vaccine-induced TTS analyzed within the review, only 4 patients had received an mRNA vaccine (5.7%), while the others had received an adenovirus-based vaccine, and no other details regarding their comorbidities was present and no statistical analysis was performed proving the relationship between mRNA COVID-19 vaccines and TTS. To help foster scientific debate, we would like to reply to Mungmunpuntipantip and Wiwanitkit, [1] addressing their perplexities in relation to our previous report. [Extracted from the article]
