Several Cases of Blood Clots Connected To Vaccines Identified in Ireland

There have been 29 reports of people in Ireland developing blood clots after getting the AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccine.

The HPRA has received 41 reports of people developing blood clots after getting the Moderna or Pfizer vaccines - but without low platelets.
