We are, that doesn't mean we have to stop being vigilant over any increases.

I didn’t say we shouldn’t carry on being “vigilant” ,, What we are doing is clearly working, I just think we should be Comming our of lockdown quicker so people can get on with their lives.. I’m not talking about international travel either ..

Hopefully spotted early. The hospitals now know how to treat clots caused by AZ. Hope he gets well soon.

I've not read anything that suggests that blood clots other than the rare brain ones are anything to do with the vaccine. Also those ones are after the first dose not the second. This is probably an unfortunate coincidence.

My sister in law had her calf go black after being vaccinated. Turned out to be an entirely unrelated issue. Very best wishes to @shemnel and family - not saying this is the case for you I hasten to add.

very possibly. i think it'll never be known.

I fear the publicity will create a glut of links to things that happened after having the jab.

I suspect if 30 million have two jabs of AZ in the UK over six months or so this year then you could probably find a way to correlate numerous collections of 'side effects' that are probably there by total coincidence given such big numbers

This is going to be a minefield.

The key question is does that person have any predisposition anyway?

My friend was at hospital yesterday being studied by doctors for her ongoing heart issues. She has had both AZ jabs (the second one last weekend) and has had a clot in her legs before and they think she might have a small one now too.

Not once did they or she suggest the AZ vaccine caused it. But it will be very easy to take that path as this happens across millions of people and when the media get their teeth into this kind of is it or isn't it correlation.
