Denmark Ditches Astra Zeneca Covid-19 Vaccine

Rest Of The World | Science & Technology April 15, 2021



Denmark on April 14, 2021 stopped the use of Astra Zeneca covid-19 vaccine permanently, reported some media.


Denmark becomes the first country in the world to ditch the embattled vaccine that is suspected to trigger formation of deadly blood clots in some recipients. Several people in Scandinavia have died after been inoculated with the vaccine.


Also on April 14, 2021, European Union (EU) that on April 7, 2021 eventually agreed that there is a link between formation of blood clots and Astra Zeneca covid-19 vaccine, announced that the regional bloc will not extend its contract with Astra Zeneca for supply of covid-19 vaccine, when the contract expires in the end of 2021. _________________________ © 2015 - 2021 Africauptodate.
