Platelets are what promote clotting in wounds.

No platelets, no clotting.

Yet this woman, with a platelet deficiency, dies of massive clotting.

You two (GOP_Party_Animal, Beagle8U) do understand that the facts of this case are the exact opposite of your snarky responses, right?

I didn’t think I make any snarky responses?

I had a dog once that occasionally got thrombocytopenia; the primary symptom was nosebleeds that could only be controlled by lots of prednisone.

Quite the opposite of “clotting”.

There were six cases of clotting that halted the 6.8 million doses of the J&J vaccine. Six. Now we have one case of a clotting incident with a young woman (with a preexisting condition) that is so rare her doctor "has never seen anything like it" despite the tens of millions that have been vaccinated over the past year.

I'm sure there are very sad but rare side effects from any vaccine. Should we stop inoculating against small pox now?

[Arcadian Empire]

Correct.
