I don't see the 'drama' at all. I pointed out the run on AZ.No the problem is looking at the risk of Vaccine vs Covid-19 and making an informed decision.
The risk decision that has been made, while being ultra cautious, WILL reduce vaccine take up in the EU dramatically resulting in many, many more deaths than need to happen.
In short the risk calculation being used is bonkers.
We are glad to have alternatives. We know, if we only had AZ it would be fully vaccinated without hesitation as the benefits by far outweigh risks. No debate there.
What we don't know by now is the risk profile when vaccinating millions of females between 20 and 50, an age group with lower risks for severe covid cases.
I have the impression AZ is a story about national pride, whereas for me it's only about efficacy and safety profile of a vaccine.
