LONDON — The European Union’s drug regulatory agency said Thursday that the AstraZeneca vaccine doesn’t increase the overall incidence of blood clots and that the benefits of using it outweigh the possible risks, paving the way for European countries to resume dispensing the shots.
France, Italy and Germany promptly announced they will start using the vaccine again on Friday. Spain, Portugal and the Netherlands said they will do so next week, though Spain said it might exclude certain groups to minimize any danger.
More than a dozen nations around the world had suspended their use of the vaccine over the past week following reports of clots in a few dozen of the millions of people across Europe who have gotten the shot. The question was whether the vaccine had anything to do with the clots and whether any action needed to be taken.
The safety committee of the European Medicines Agency “has come to a clear scientific conclusion,” the head of the EMA, Emer Cooke, announced. “This is a safe and effective vaccine.”
She added: “If it were me, I would be vaccinated tomorrow.”
However, she said the agency “still cannot rule out definitively a link” between certain rare types of blood clots and the vaccine. The EMA recommended adding a description of these cases to the vaccine leaflets.

It doesn’t cause clots but we are going to put on a warning label about it causing blood clots.
Bureaucracy at its finest.
NOTE TO SELF: Short sell AstraZeneca.
Ooops ... too late!

I have no words.
are they going to do a Prothrombin time test or something first?
Hey, it’s totally safe! But, here’s a little warning just in case.
I don’t watch TV but when I pass by one that is on somewhere and hear the medical ads I hear the likes of “If you go into fits, cannot breathe, have hives and a rash all over your body, turn purple and keel over forward onto your forehead, call a healthcare professional or physician. We are not responsible and not financially liable.”
Here’s a kicker, when you go to get the vax here in the US and you make your appointment the choice is not yours what ever vax they have moderna or pfizer at this location that is what you will get.
That prob wont detect this coagulopathy. Keep your eyes open for sudden coagulopathy... just saying.
OK thx...
You can in some areas
Well then, sounds like the head of the EMA can get back to us after she’s been vaccinated.
