Benefits of AZ COVID-19 vaccine continue to outweigh risks, says EMA s executive director

Benefits of AZ COVID-19 vaccine continue to outweigh risks, says EMA’s executive director EU regulator is expected to publish findings from its investigation on Thursday The European Medicines Agency’s (EMA) executive director Emer Cooke has maintained that the benefits of the AstraZeneca (AZ)/Oxford University COVID-19 vaccine ‘continue’ to outweigh the risks. Yesterday the EMA announced that its Pharmacovigilance Risk Assessment Committee (PRAC) had made progress in its investigation into reports of blood clots in people who had received the AZ/Oxford vaccine. As announced earlier this week, the EMA is investigating 30 cases of thromboembolic events among approximately five million people who have received the AstraZeneca vaccine in the European Economic Area.

Covid-19 vaccine allergies can be managed

WHO is aware that a small fraction of people – around one person in every one million people vaccinated - may have a severe allergic reaction to the Covid-19 vaccines, known as anaphylaxis. To manage such cases, WHO advises that all vaccination sites should have a medical doctor or clinical officer with the necessary kit to address such reactions or any other adverse effects following vaccination. WHO recommends that before the first dose, clients should inform the vaccinating team about any allergic reaction they may have had in the past. This is a precautionary measure. The healthcare providers will then assess the patient’s medical history
