IN LINE WITH THE NEW PROVISIONS

No mention, in the letter, of the reasons. However, what has been decided is in line with the new government provisions.

In recent days, the Ministry of Health issued a circular reiterating that "the Vaxzevria vaccine is approved from the age of 18, based on current evidence, taking into account the low risk of adverse thromboembolic reactions in the face of of the high mortality from Covid-19 in the more advanced age groups, it is shown that its preferential use is recommended in people over the age of 60 ".

EMA: POSSIBLE CORRELATIONS WITH CASES OF THROMBOSIS

The decision follows what Ema said about the vaccine. The Safety Committee of the European Medicines Agency concluded "that unusual blood clots associated with low platelet levels should be listed as very rare side effects of Vaxzevria (formerly called the COVID-19 AstraZeneca vaccine)," writes Aifa .

"So far, most of the reported cases have occurred within 2 weeks of vaccination in women under the age of 60," he adds.

The EMA also confirmed “that the overall risk-benefit ratio remains positive”.
