I read something online a few days ago that the risk of a blood clot from the OAZ vaccine is lower than the risk of taking the contraceptive pill (women obviously)
I had a friend who, by mistake, took his wife's contraceptive pills, thinking they were for headache. His wife discovered they were missing and was bemused. He was aware of the health risks for women and spoke with his doctor. He asked what the effects might be. The doctor said - and I'd be surprised if you're not there already - 'You probably won't get pregnant.' His wife, who was there to get more pills, and her doctor enjoyed their little bit of fun he said.Derek Smith said:

2nd jab yesterday, not good 
Did you have the Pfizer? Reports are that the AZ jab hits you on the first dose, the Pfizer on the second dose. sorry for the inconvenience.

The potential issue with the OAZ vaccines regarding blood clots is interesting. On one hand, we get “Keep taking the OAZ vaccine, it’s safe”, simultaneously we get “we’re stopping the experimental roll out of the OAZ vaccine for younger people / children, because of the risk from blood clots” 
.
If your reaction to this situation is laughter and suspicion, then you don't understand what's happening, or the definiton of "safe" in clinical terms..It is safe. It is already proven safe. If rare blood clots are found to be related to the vaccine, and added to guidance around potential side effects, then the vaccine is still safe, it is only that a rare side effect has been discovered. It is not uncommon for drugs and treatments to have guidance such as this added, it does not render them "unsafe". Safety has been proven.

Only short term safety has been proven to be "safe".Gassing Station | Health Matters | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
