Excellent point. One thing I notice in the discussion about AZ is the fact that the risk for thrombosis is not really put into context. One very strong comparison is this: when taking a 6-hour flight the risk for thrombosis is about 5 times higher than the risk currently associated with the AZ-vaccination (ref. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17351849/). Still most of us will happily board a plane once this is possible again. I'm not saying we shouldn't be critical about side-effects associated with the AZ-vaccine, I'm just missing a bit of context.

I got my AZ jab two weeks ago. Knocked me for a six for a day and that's about all it did. I do believe the AZ vaccine is very safe, millions of doses have been given out and only a few had issues with it. But clearly more research should be conducted to work out why it causes blood clots in the unfortunate few so we can make better vaccines in future.
