I got my only AstraZeneca vaccination after concerns were raised about blood clots.
I had a blood clot in 2017 they believed it was caused by dehydration.
My grandfather died at the age of 56 from a blood clot.
People who got COVID-19 had a higher risk of dangerous blood clots for close to a year later, according to a large new study on the aftereffects of a SARS-CoV-2 infection during the period before vaccines became available.
As seen in previous studies, COVID-19 was linked to a sharply increased risk of blood clot-related issues – including heart attack and stroke – immediately after diagnosis compared to people who never had COVID-19. But the new study found that risk remained higher for some problems up to 49 weeks later.
