EU confirms AZ vaccine blood clot side effects, many countries adjust vaccination schedules

The UK’s AZ vaccine, developed against the Chinese Communist virus, has been repeatedly reported to have caused blood clots and even death after vaccination. Recently, EU officials have confirmed that blood clots are a “rare side effect” of the AZ vaccine. Many countries have subsequently adjusted their vaccination programs to partially exclude the AZ vaccine.

On April 8, the European Medicines Agency (EMA), after a meeting with experts, determined that the AZ vaccine has a “very low probability” of causing blood clots in vaccine recipients, but emphasized that the benefits of AZ vaccination “outweigh the risks” and did not recommend discontinuing its use, saying only that The EMA said it would add a side effect label.

The EMA said that after analyzing the data, it found that most of the blood clots occurred in women under the age of 60, and most occurred within two weeks of vaccination. As a result, the agency called on people receiving the AZ vaccine to be concerned about the possibility of blood clots and low levels of platelets within two weeks.

The British government also announced the same day that it would offer other vaccines to healthy adults under the age of 30. Some European countries have made similar recommendations to allow only older age groups to receive the AZ vaccine.

Among them, the French Higher Health Authority recommended that French people under 55 who received their first dose of AZ vaccine should be switched to another vaccine when administering their second dose.

Australian health officials, on the other hand, recommend that nationals under the age of 50 not receive the AZ vaccine and switch to the Pfizer vaccine, but that those who have already received the first dose of AZ vaccine may continue with the second dose.

In addition, Zeke Emanuel, a member of the Biden administration’s advisory committee on the CCP virus epidemic, has suggested that the U.S. government could donate the more than 20 million doses of AZ vaccine already in stock to foreign countries. Some experts in Hong Kong have also suggested that the Hong Kong government should reduce its purchases of AZ vaccine.

The AZ vaccine was developed by a partnership between Oxford University in the UK and AstraZeneca Pharmaceuticals (AZ). According to the British newspaper The Sun, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson praised the AZ vaccine at a closed-door meeting on the evening of March 23, local time, and said off the record, “Friends, the reason our vaccination program is working is because of capitalism and the greed of our friends. “

Not only the AZ vaccine, but all of the current CCP virus vaccines around the world have been hastily introduced by countries after a drastically compressed R&D process, and many have been exposed to numerous side effects and deaths. Several domestic vaccines introduced by the CCP are even suspected to be of low efficacy and of questionable safety.
