Denmark will not include Johnson & Johnson’s vaccine in its Covid immunization program over blood-clot concerns, according to media reports. Authorities in Denmark are being extra cautious and excluding AstraZeneca’s vaccine too.
Denmark became the first country in Europe to abandon use of the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine, after the country and more than a dozen other European Union nations suspended its usage.
Denmark, Norway and Iceland today joined other EU countries in suspending use of the AstraZeneca-Oxford vaccine following reports of blood clots and the death of a 60-year-old woman in Denmark.
