Denmark is the latest country to suspend AstraZeneca Vaccine distributed to 17 EU countries over fears of blood clots




We reported this week that the European Medicines Agency (EMA) said “there was no evidence so far linking AstraZeneca’s Covid-19 vaccine to illnesses in two people who received it in Austria” and that the EMA statement was made before an Austrian investigation into blood clotting after receiving the AstraZeneca vaccine concluded.

According to Breakingnews.ie, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) were not immediately available for comment as DENMARK announced that they will be suspending the AstraZeneca vaccine for two weeks whilst they carry out investigations into blood clots. Denmark report that there has been one known death from a blood clot where the patient received the vaccine.

Soren Brostrom, Director of the Danish Health Authority said “Both we and the Danish Medicines Agency have to respond to reports of possible serious side-effects, both from Denmark and other European countries.”

The European Medicines Agency (EMA) said earlier this week that there was no evidence so far linking AstraZeneca to the two blood clot cases in Austria. Their statement was made before the official investigation in Austria has concluded.
