Australian health authorities remain committed to Oxford-AstraZeneca

AstraZeneca vaccine

Australian health authorities remain committed to using the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine despite concerns in Europe which have seen some countries suspend their rollouts. Countries including Germany, Italy, Spain, France and Portugal have suspended their use of the vaccine following reports some people who received it went on to form blood clots. There is no evidence linking the clots to the vaccine but that hasn't stopped some members of the Coalition from calling for Australia to halt its rollout of AstraZeneca. That story by Greg Dyett for SBS News, produced by Praba Maheswaran for SBS Tamil.
