    There have been cases of blood clotting, severe enough that in some places it is recommended that people under 40 get a different shot. https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronavirus-covid-19/coronavirus-vaccination/safety-and-side-effects/ https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronavirus-covid-19/coronavir...

    Here's the Australian Technical Advisory Group on Immunisation post from when Australia discontinued AstraZeneca for people aged under 60 (and made Pfizer the preferred vaccine instead): https://www.health.gov.au/news/atagi-statement-on-revised-recommendations-on-the-use-of-covid-19-vaccine-astrazeneca-17-june-2021 https://www.health.gov.au/news/atagi-statement-on-revised-re... From early April to 16 June 2021, 60 cases of confirmed or probable TTS [thrombosis and thrombocytopenia syndrome] have been reported in Australia. This includes an additional seven cases reported in the past week in people between 50-59 years, increasing the rate in this age group from 1.9 to 2.7 per 100,000 AstraZeneca vaccine doses.... TTS is a serious condition in a proportion of individuals who develop it. The overall case fatality rate in Australia (3%; 2 deaths among 60 cases) is lower than has been reported internationally. At that time, more people were dying from AstraZeneca than were dying from Covid in Australia. During May & June 2021, no one died of Covid in Australia: https://www.abs.gov.au/articles/covid-19-mortality-australia-deaths-registered-31-january-2022 https://www.abs.gov.au/articles/covid-19-mortality-australia...

  They were still very useful within a certain age range as long as the mRNA vaccines were scarce.

      For the record: I am unaware of anyone forced to take the AZ vaccine anywhere, and I do as lot of global work. It's perfectly possible someone somewhere might have been forced, but forced on everyone? You should know that's dishonest. If you're saying dishonest things, you're probably either being intentionally disingenuous, or you're brainwashed. That should raise red flags that something's wrong, and that it's perhaps time to do your own research. Everyone I know used an MRNA vaccine, which are more effective and perfectly safe.
