Ireland Suspends AstraZeneca Vaccine Amid Blood Clot Reports

Irish health officials on Sunday recommended the temporary suspension of the AstraZeneca vaccine after reports of serious blood clotting after inoculations in Norway.

Dr. Ronan Glynn, Ireland’s deputy chief medical officer, said the recommendation was made after Norway’s medicines agency reported four cases of blood clotting in adults after receiving the AstraZeneca vaccine.

He said that while there was no conclusive link between the vaccine and the cases, Irish health officials are recommending the suspension of the vaccine’s rollout as a precaution.

Danish, Norwegian and Icelandic authorities have taken similar precautionary steps. The World Health Organization and the European Union’s medicines regulator said earlier in the week that there was no link between the jab and an increased risk of developing a clot.

Utah mother, 39, with NO known health issues dies four days after receiving second dose of Moderna’s COVID vaccine

A 39-year-old mother in Utah, whose family say she had no known health problems,  died four days after receiving her second dose of Moderna’s coronavirus vaccine.  

Kassidi Kurill, of Ogden, died on February 5 after falling ill and being rushed to hospital.

Her family, who are still awaiting results of her autopsy, believe her death was the result of complications due to the COVID-19 vaccine. 

Kurill worked as a surgical tech for several plastic surgeons. Healthcare workers in Utah were among the first to be eligible to receive the vaccine.  

Utah’s medical examiner says they haven’t certified any vaccine-related deaths so far and that there doesn’t appear to be a link between the death of four Utah residents – one of which is Kurill – and the vaccines.  

Kurill’s family say the mother-of-one was healthy and had no pre-existing conditions prior to her shock death. 

‘She was seemingly healthy as a horse,’ Kurill’s father, Alfred Hawley, told Fox News. ‘She had no known underlying conditions.
