Professor of the Faculty of Pharmacy, Universitas Gajah Mada (UGM), Prof. Zullies Ikawati, said cases of blood clots caused by the AstraZeneca vaccine in Europe were mostly experienced by young women. They are on average under 40 years old.
“What is interesting about the cases of blood clots that occur when using AstraZeneca in Europe, most of them occur at a young age under 40 years old, even under 30 years old, and most of them are women,” he said in a written statement received in Jakarta, Monday (21 /6).
Zullies said, as of May 5, 2021, in Europe there have been reports of blood clots caused by the AstraZeneca vaccine as many as 262 cases, of which 51 died, from the use of 30 million doses of the vaccine.
Therefore in the UK, said Zullies, the local public health authority recommends for those under 40 years to use a vaccine other than AstraZeneca.
