British pharmaceutical company AstraZeneca is currently withdrawing its COVID vaccine worldwide, months after it admitted for the first time in court documents that it can cause a rare and dangerous side effect, The Telegraph reported.

The application to withdraw the vaccine was made on March 5 and came into effect on Tuesday, the report added.

The vaccine, developed by AstraZeneca and Oxford University, was produced by the Serum Institute of India as Covishield.

“Rare” side effects that are not so rare.

The AstraZeneca vaccine was made using an adenovirus vector. It is similar to the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, which was also based on adenovirus.

The adenovirus vaccines were found to slightly increase the risk of blood clots. The mRNA vaccines do not increase blood clot risk. Covid-19, of course, greatly increases the risk of blood clots, which occur in about 30% of hospitalized Covid patients.

Partly because of the slightly increased risk of blood clots with the J&J vaccine, the FDA revoked approval of this vaccine in June, 2023. It is not surprising, therefore, that the AstraZeneca vaccine is also being pulled.

I do not know if other vaccines based on an adenovirus vector would also increase the risk of blood clots. I also do not know why the adenovirus-based vaccines had this risk. There is currently a gene therapy being developed which uses adenovirus to deliver a gene encoding VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) to help patients with angina grow new blood vessels in the heart and decrease the angina pain. Although this use of the adenovirus is called a gene therapy (because it replicates what a natural human gene does), it is doubtful that the adenovirus will stick around for any length of time.

The lawyers are now circling like sharks. I do not like lawyers nor sharks (I have had bad experiences with both, and the lawyers were the worst) but this time I am on the lawyers side. The sharks were just doing their job. I was in their world.

How convenient.

The damage is done now. It doesn’t matter anymore and now they can claim to be the heroes for trying to *protect* everyone from what they inflicted on people in the first place.

Besides, if the vax sales are really tanking like reports seem to indicate, it’s no loss to them. But it’s a great PR move for the gullible to swallow.

NO REFUNDS

and all these countries passed total liability waivers so no one can sue them for life changing injuries.

And governments forced and bullied and brainwashed people to get it done.

What happened today in the UK...

AstraZeneca Covid vaccine victims hail withdrawal of jab globally, saying 'no one else will suffer now' - as lawyers warn Brits harmed by rare side effect linked to 81 deaths may have ran out of time to claim compensation because of 3-year cut-off

Interesting timing, eh?

In the US, the liability was only under the emergency and cold be pierced if fraud could be proved. Fraud can probably be proved.

Anyone else wondering if the cancer epidemic hitting the House of Windsor is CoupFlu vaxx related?

And, if so, if that’s part or all of the reason the AZ CoupFlu vaxx was withdrawn...
