I am not a virologist, but blood clotting might be related to the specific payload rather than the platform. The original SARS-CoV2 has the same property. Could it be related to the spike protein?
- sanxiyn 6y agoThis preprint suggests AZ vaccine blood clotting is due to EDTA, an ingredient specific to AZ vaccine and absent in other vaccines, and is related to neither platform nor payload. https://www.researchsquare.com/article/rs-440461/v1 https://www.researchsquare.com/article/rs-440461/v1
- meepmorp 6y agoEDTA is an anti-coagulant, though. Blood collection vials are coated with it to prevent clots in blood samples.
- nikolay 6y agoThe adenoviruses themselves are known to cause blood clotting for years and were questioned long ago as being a good vector.
