This decision had nothing to do with very rare TTS side effect, which was discovered and publicly revealed in March-April 2021. https://www.techarp.com/science/astrazeneca-covid-vaccine-withdraw/ https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/astrazeneca-withdraw-covid-vaccine-worldwide-telegraph-reports-2024-05-07/ https://edition.cnn.com/2024/05/08/business/astrazeneca-covid-vaccine-withdrawal/index.html
