let's hope you have to have cancer (in remission) in the first place and COVID symptoms have to be severe enough.
Al in all I had covid 3 times, albeit in ever lighter form each time. I had some weird symptoms the fourth time which I can't identify as COVID, I felt very tired and weak for a .... half (!!!) a day, it was weird, have never had this before.
I suspect almost everybody had been infected, it just most did not have symptoms noticeable enough.

Well, here we go.

Trump health officials plan to link coronavirus vaccines to the deaths of 25 children as they consider limiting which Americans should get the shots, according to four people familiar with the situation who spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe confidential information.

The findings appear to be based on information submitted to the federal Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System, which contains unverified reports of side effects or bad experiences with vaccines submitted by anyone, including patients, doctors, pharmacists or even someone who sees a report on social media. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention emphasizes that the database is not designed to assess whether a shot caused a death, a conclusion that requires thorough investigations by scientists and public health professionals.

How long until they start linking vaccines in general to bad health outcomes?

The RFK support base have been doing that since the 1960s, though they didn't get particularly numerous until the late '90s, when Wakefield attempted to defaud the NHS by publishing his bogus paper linking MMR vaccine to autism.
