Au menu de cette revue de presse du vendredi 12 mars : les vaccins contre le Covid-19 répondent – notamment – à des questions de géopolitique, il y a bientôt 10 ans jour pour jour commençait le terrible conflit syrien, et la cérémonie des César va se dérouler dans un contexte morose.
The head of the French vaccination campaign has said there are no recorded thrombotic incidents in France and urged people to get the AstraZeneca vaccine as some other countries suspend its use.
ReplyDelete“You have to be vaccinated by AstraZeneca... The risk-benefit remains extremely favorable,” Alain Fischer, president of the Advisory Council on the vaccine strategy, told Radio Classique on Friday morning.
“In the United Kingdom, where this vaccine is used very widely, there are no reports of cases,” Fischer said, referencing the decision of a number of European nations, including Denmark and Austria, to postpone the use of the AstraZeneca vaccine while the health authorities investigate side effects in the form of potentially fatal blood clots.
“The data indicate that there are no excess incidents of thrombotic events following the administration of the AstraZeneca vaccine,” the vaccine tsar noted, adding that France’s position follows that of the European Medicines Agency (EMA).
