Parents Plan To Sue Vaccine Maker Over Daughter's Alleged Covishield Death

This comes after AstraZeneca admitted in court documents in the UK that their vaccine can cause rare side effects that can lead to blood clots and low platelet count.

The parents of a young woman who died allegedly after being given Covishield are planning to sue the world's largest vaccine maker and the British pharma giant that had developed the vaccine during the Covid pandemic. This comes after AstraZeneca admitted in court documents in the UK that their vaccine can cause rare side effects that can lead to blood clots and low platelet count.

The same vaccine was manufactured in India by the Serum Institute of India (SII) under the name 'Covishield' and was widely administered here.

SII is yet to comment on this matter.
