How Astrazeneca Causes Blood Clots: ‘Trigger’ Found

The video discusses the Oxford-AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine, which uses a genetically modified virus from chimpanzees to trigger an immune response against COVID-19. A study found that in rare cases, the vaccine can cause blood clots by attracting a protein called platelet factor 4, leading to an immune response. Despite this, the vaccine has been linked to saving millions of lives and preventing COVID-19 cases. The risk of clots is higher with a COVID-19 infection than with the vaccine.
