A pharmacist whose brother died of a blood clot doctors said was probably caused by his Covid-19 vaccine says she “strongly believed” people should continue to have the jab.
Solicitor Neil Astles, 59, died on Sunday after getting the AstraZeneca vaccine on March 17, his sister, Alison, said.
Dr Astles urged people to continue getting vaccinated, saying her brother was “extraordinarily unlucky”.
Speaking to the BBC News channel, she said: “Despite what has happened to Neil and the impact on our family, I still strongly believe that people should go ahead and have the vaccine.
“If you’ve had one dose, go ahead and have your second. If you haven’t had your dose yet make sure that you do.
