Denmark, Norway and Iceland on Thursday temporarily suspended the use of AstraZeneca’s coronavirus vaccine amid concerns of patients developing blood clots post inoculation, reported AFP.
The health authority in Denmark, which was the first to announce the suspension, said that there were “reports of serious cases of blood clots” among people who received the vaccine but stressed that it was only a precautionary measure. “It has not been determined, at the time being, that there is a link between the vaccine and the blood clots,” the Danish Health and Medicines Authority said.

Market Focus Vietnam webinar
Le Linh Lan, Ambassador of Vietnam to Switzerland and Liechtenstein, said at a Market Focus Vietnam webinar last week that Swiss investors with comparative advantages and strengths in tech, innovation, capital, and expertise in finance, pharmaceuticals, and food manufacturing will look more to Vietnam as a safe and attractive destination for doing business in a post-pandemic world.
âIn addition, there is still potential in areas of trade and investment given the complementary nature of the two economies,â Lan added.
Switzerland, as a member of the European Free Trade Area, has been in negotiation with Vietnam for a far-reaching free trade agreement (FTA) since 2012.
