The revelation was made at a court hearing at London’s High Court of Justice. 51 plaintiffs have claimed that after getting the AZ vaccination, they or their loved ones developed TTS (thrombosis with thrombocytopenia syndrome).
Blood clotting or unusually low platelet counts are the hallmarks of this uncommon disease, which can have potentially fatal outcomes such as amputation, heart attack, brain injury, and pulmonary embolism.

According to reports, the petitioners have documentation supporting their allegation that the vaccine resulted in fatalities or serious injuries. They are requesting damages under the UK’s Consumer Protection Act. India, where the AZ vaccine was produced and sold under the brand name Covishield in collaboration with the Pune-based Serum Institute of India, is greatly impacted by the British case.
During the Covid years, it was given to over 90% of the nation’s eligible citizens. Despite AZ’s declaration that patient safety is its first priority, a comprehensive investigation is necessary to dispel the uncertainties and fears of the Indian residents who had Covishield injections. The case has made its way to the Supreme Court, where a petitioner is asking for orders to assemble a group of medical specialists to investigate potential adverse effects of the vaccine.

Clinical testing for vaccines were expedited during the pandemic since stopping the virus’s spread and saving lives was of utmost importance.This was motivated by the overwhelming evidence that the risks associated with the virus were outweighed by the advantages of immunisation.
Even though they are uncommon, the side effects have raised concerns about the safety of the AZ vaccination. The regulatory agencies’ role has also been called into question. It is hoped that a thorough investigation will be conducted to identify the errors that jeopardised the vaccination recipients’ health. The best course of action should be to address accountability and emphasise the need for increased transparency.
