EMA Says Benefit Of AZ Vaccine Outweighs Risks, Full Update 6-9 Apr

EU

The EMA hasissued a statement confirming its previous stance on the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine, stating that the benefits of taking the vaccine outweigh any risks.

  • "At present the review has not identified any specific risk factors, such as age, gender or a previous medical history of clotting disorders, for these very rare events. A causal link with the vaccine is not proven, but is possible and further analysis is continuing."
  • "As communicated on 18 March, EMA is of the view that the benefits of the AstraZeneca vaccine in preventing COVID-19, with its associated risk of hospitalisation and death, outweigh the risks of side effects."
  • "Based on all the currently available data, EMA's safety committee (PRAC) is expected to issue an updated recommendation during its April plenary meeting (6–9 April)."
  • Statement comes after health authorities in Germany (and Canada) halt the use of the AZ vaccine on under 60's due to so-far unfounded links to blood clotting disorder.
