I have been reading how the Covid spike proteins cause clotting. I'm curious whether the spike proteins in or created by the various vaccines cause clotting problems as well.
I assume that the current medical thinking is either that they do not cause clotting or that they cause it far less than the disease itself, but I would like to understand why.
Below are a couple articles I have read on this that have made me curious. Do any of you have insights into this?
If you do have any insights, do you feel that one type of vaccine is better than the other (mRNA vs. recombinant vector vaccines)? If so, why?
Thank you in advance for your thoughts!

SARS-CoV-2 spike S1 subunit induces hypercoagulability
The vascular complications of the condition include a range of various coagulopathies that cause bleeding and thrombocytopenia or a hypercoagulable state. A new preprint research paper posted to the medRxiv server describes the role of a fibrinogen-related protein in inducing these clinical...

COVID-19 can affect the blood. Its spike protein may be the culprit.
The spike protein is an arm-like apparatus that might mimic proteins that regulate blood vessels and control the formation of blood clots.
