Have European countries made a mistake in halting AstraZeneca shots? Here's what health experts say
CNN
Within the space of a few days, the rollout of the Oxford-AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccine has ground to a standstill in virtually all of western Europe. The actions of European governments have surprised experts, and caused a myriad of questions among people who have had or are in line to get the shot.
France, Spain, Germany, Italy and more than a dozen other countries have paused rollout of the shot, calling it a precautionary measure following concerns that it could be linked to blood clots; decisions that go against the advice of global health agencies. A few countries have stood by the vaccine -- including the United Kingdom, where more than 11 million doses have already been administered, and where real-world data has shown vaccines are reducing infections and hospitalizations.More Related News
