Ooops !
The risk of a blood clot from the AZ vaccine appears to be one in 250,000, or 0.0004%.
The risk of a blood clot for women of the contraceptive pill is one in 2,000 or 0.05%.
The risk of a blood clot on a long haul flight is one in 1,000 (or 0.1%)
I don't expect that you are on the pill, but how many women do you know who are going to stop taking the pill because the risk of a clot is many times greater than the risk of a clot from the AZ vaccine?
I know that overseas travel is difficult at the moment, but when it resumes will you stay at home because the risk of a clot is so much greater than the risk of a clot from the AZ vaccine?
The risk needs to be kept in perspective.
So the answer to your question is that I am prepared to take the risk of about 4 in a million.
Are people predisposed to clots, or women on the pill, at greater risk than folk with no other risk factor?
