The European Union’s drug regulator insisted on Tuesday that there is “no indication” the AstraZeneca vaccine causes blood clots as governments around the world faced the grimmest of dilemmas: push on with a vaccine known to save lives or suspend its use over reports of clotting in some recipients.
The European Medicines Agency has further urged governments not to halt use of the vaccine at a time when the pandemic is still taking thousands of lives each day.
Meanwhile, UAE authorities have administered the Covid-19 vaccine to over 50 per cent of the population.
