Today they have suspended the use of the Astrazeneca (AZ) vaccine, out of… you got it, an abundance of caution. When it comes to my life or death, I appreciate that.
An abundance of caution and (by the way) increasing (now apparently not so) ‘rare’ blood clots. Vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia. VITT.
It is curious how Canada finally came to that decision in May, as our system was flooded with Pfizer vaccines. It’s convenient now to suspend AZ. Politically convenient.
Back in March, AZ was suspended by Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Denmark, Norway, Iceland, Bulgaria, the Democratic Republic of Congo, the Nethelands, Indonesia, Cyprus, Portugal, Lativa, Slovenia, Sweden, Luxemboug, Thailand….
Oh Canada
