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Vaxzevria was withdrawn because AstraZeneca has stopped production: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/
