AstraZeneca vaccine suspended for under-60s
Apr 2nd, 2021 at 10:39am
 
Quote:
Authorities in Berlin and Munich have again suspended the use of AstraZeneca's coronavirus vaccine for residents under the age of 60, due to new reports of unusual blood clots.

The decision came after the country's medical regulator announced it had received a total of 31 reports of rare blood clots in recent recipients of the AstraZeneca vaccine.

Nine of the people died, and all but two of the cases involved women aged 20 to 63, the Paul Ehrlich Institute said.

Some 2.7 million doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine have been administered across Germany so far.

Reports of an unusual form of blood clot in the head, known as sinus vein thrombosis, prompted several European countries to temporarily halt the use of the AstraZeneca vaccine earlier this month.

After a review by medical experts, the European Medicines Agency concluded the benefits of the vaccine outweighed the risks.

At the same time, the agency recommended that warnings about possible rare side effects should be provided to patients and doctors.

Most European Union countries, including Germany, resumed use of the vaccine.

I am not defending any vaccine.
These are the stats.

Covid has about a 3% fatality rate.

Maybe, before getting a covid vaccine, take a few aspro clears?
They are blood thinners.

35 % reported no adverse effect
51% reported fatigue
only 1.6% reported an adverse effect severe enough to require a visit to a doctor or ED

EU drug regulator: Unusual blood clot is 'very rare AstraZeneca side effect'


Published

58 minutes ago



The EU's medicines regulator says unusual blood clots should be listed as a very rare side effect of the AstraZeneca vaccine for Covid-19.

After a study looking at 86 European cases, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) concluded the benefits of the vaccine outweighed the risk.

The report reflected data on 25 million Europeans administered with the jab.

The EMA could not list specific risk factors such as age or gender, but
most blood clot cases were women under 60.

Separately, the UK's vaccine advisory body said that under-30s there were to be offered an
alternative jab to AstraZeneca due to the blood clots issue.
Some 79 people had suffered rare blood clots after vaccination by the end of March in the UK -

19 of whom had died.

EU agency finds AstraZeneca vaccine can cause rare blood clots, as UK advises other shots for under-30s


By Angela Dewan and Sharon Braithwaite, CNN

Updated 1955 GMT (0355 HKT) April 7, 2021




(CNN)European drug regulators have confirmed a link between the Oxford-AstraZeneca Covid-19 shot and rare blood clots, as UK authorities recommended that people under 30 should take alternative vaccines.
The European Medicines Agency (EMA) said Wednesday that a particular combination of unusual blood clots with low blood platelet counts should be listed as a side effect of the vaccine, but stopped short of recommending its use be limited. The benefits of the shot outweigh the risks and Covid-19 is a "very serious disease," it added.
UK regulators took a more cautious approach, saying healthy adults under 30 should be offered other vaccines. Officials described the move as a "course correction" that would not derail the country's rapid inoculation program.

And the people who die are 100% dead.

Not 0.0000114815% dead or 3% dead, but 100% dead.

We're still talking about extremely low rates

Elsewhere, UK regulators said a thorough review of rare and specific types of blood clots continues, and as of Mar 24, officials have received 22 reports of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) and 8 reports of thrombosis events with low platelets. The events were among 18.1 million doses of AstraZeneca vaccine that had been given by that date.


A panel from the British Society of Hematology today released interim guidance on diagnosing and managing the rare conditions, which they say have not been definitively linked to vaccination. However, they say the cases are unusual, because despite thrombocytopenia, patients experience progressive thrombosis, mainly venous, with a high preponderance of CVST.




The whole thing seems counterintuitive. The patients are experience thrombosis in spite of having low platelet levels, even though ther reverse should be expected

So they are only recommending it for people over 50, my understanding is the risk of severe side effects is much higher for older people, so older people are disposable apparently. They must be taking Aquascoots advice.

Sad noises from the Liberals who are pushing the Astrazenica vaccine because they bought shares in the company before announcing it to the public...
