The judgment of the Corona 19 Vaccination Specialist Committee was no different from the European Medicines Agency’EMA’.

Since AstraZeneca vaccine has not been found to increase the risk of blood clots, it was decided to get the vaccine as planned.

It was also considered that the incidence of blood clots after vaccination was lower than usual.

In the same vein, cases of specific blood clots that exceeded the general statistics were recommended for further investigation.

This rare thrombosis has been seen in most cases abroad in women under the age of 55.

It is a situation where anxiety about vaccination may increase among young women, such as kindergarten teachers and flight attendants, among the targets for the second quarter vaccination right away.

Experts said that this is an extremely rare case and did not need to be concerned, and urged you to watch for specific symptoms only.

Of the two cases of blood clots in Korea, the death toll in their 60s was a common thrombosis, and the vaccine was not the cause.

Emergency personnel in their twenties are investigating the relevance of the vaccine in a rare case of cerebral sinus thrombosis.

Meanwhile, the vaccination and causality were recognized for two patients who showed severe adverse reactions such as anaphylaxis after receiving the AstraZeneca vaccine.

Currently, both of them have improved their condition, but as long as the vaccine connection is recognized, they can apply for national damage compensation.
