Despite no evidence of a link between blood clots and the vaccine, a cautious approach is spreading
Several European countries have halted using the Oxford/AstraZeneca Covid vaccine amid unconfirmed fears that the shot may have led to serious blood clots. Both the World Health Organization and the European Medicines Agency (EMA) say there is no evidence the jabs caused clotting issues.
AstraZeneca has said 17 million people had so far received the jab, and the blood clot incidents were “much lower than would be expected to occur naturally in a general population”.
