I'm not sure about that in Germany in the last couple of days the number of vaccines administered has shot-up to almost 750,000 per day. Van de Leyen's pressure on vaccine manufacturers seems to have worked.Originally posted by tazdevil View PostThe EU appear to be desperate to get their hands on the successful AZ vaccine.

Dr Astles, who is pharmacy lead at the University of Huddersfield, said her brother started to have headaches and feel nauseous "a week or so" after having his first jab.
Around eight days later he began to lose his vision and he was taken to the Royal Liverpool University Hospital on Friday.
Doctors found a "huge blood clot" on his brain, she said, and he died on Sunday evening.
She said she was told by doctors "they were 99.9% sure this was due to the Covid vaccine" and that his blood results mirrored similar cases in the UK.
Very sad news. I wonder how many people will develop this clotting problem over the coming months?

A complete farce with the politicians dithering and wringing their hands whilst people die. A vanishingly small risk is turned into a huge issue for a sold at cost vaccine whilst the others sold at huge profit also have vanishingly small risks but are preferred. Meanwhile the big countries like the US sit on huge stockpiles of unused vaccine they probably don't want whilst others die from the lack of a vaccine

Spain and Italy have moved to limit the use of the Oxford/AstraZeneca vaccine to people aged above 60, in shifts that will complicate the countries’ efforts to step up their vaccination programmes.

They didn't ask me that. Maybe I was one of the chosen guinea pig.Originally posted by _V_ View PostWhen I went for the jab, the nurse asked my specifically about history of blood clots, so super surprised you had the AZ vaccine.
you can either die of vaccine or covid. Tough choice.
