I think Johnson and Johnson's covid vaccine (also an adenovirus vaccine) was also associated with blood clots, but do you have any evidence of clots with the mRNA vaccines? I recall reports of Myocarditis in younger men that got little value from the mRNA vaccines, but this is the first I've heard of blood clots.
Deaths: 1 579 for the AstraZeneca vaccine;.
The EMA notes that no causal link has been confirmed: ‘The fact that someone has had a medical issue or died after vaccination does not necessarily mean that this was caused by the vaccine.
Even though this is the EU, your 'hundreds of thousands died' is not true in any way and is a lie.
You were told it is not an mRNA vaccine which you are ignoring.
"okay, you might get it, but you won't spread it"
This ignores the evolution of the virus itself into variants which changed the efficacy of the vaccines based off of previous variants.
What you're saying here is classic anti-vax stuff. "I'm just skeptical, I don't trust medicine now" while offering up totally false information.
Never mind that vaccines rapidly stopped covid from flooding hospitals killing people and giving them long term problems. Now it's not a problem and the only thing that slowed down progress was people spreading misinformation and lies.
> This ignores the evolution of the virus itself into variants which changed the efficacy of the vaccines based off of previous variants.
The trials that gave us the very high efficacy numbers didn't test infection/transmission at all. More than likely nothing changed here, and the messaging was just a lie by people who didn't understand the press releases, which only said it prevents sickness.
Consider that if 4 billion people get a vaccine with a 1/10,000 (0.01%) chance of causing myocarditis / blood clots / other side effects resulting in sudden death, that would still mean 400,000 dead, and those deaths aren't meaningless to the families they affect. It's very insensitive to accuse those who've lost loved ones and then continued to get boosters anyway because it's the right thing to do of pushing a "classic anti-vax agenda"
Consider, also, the real world where such things were noticed early on, where Astra-Z use was downgraded, and community health centes were advised to stay alert for issues.
ie. 4 billion people did not get a vaccine with TTS issues.

and note well AstraZeneca is no longer available in Australia
