Original Note:
Headline false — AstraZeneca did not "admit for the first time" Vaxzevria may cause blood clotting months ago. In fact, patients receiving this vaccine have been informed of this side effect since 2021, see: https://web.archive.org/web/20210420124209/https://www.ema.europa.eu/en/documents/product-information/vaxzevria-previously-covid-19-vaccine-astrazeneca-epar-product-information_en.pdf Vaxzevria was withdrawn because AstraZeneca has stopped production: https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/astrazeneca-withdraw-covid-vaccine-worldwide-telegraph-reports-2024-05-07/
