The city of Berlin has stopped vaccinations with AstraZeneca not only for women but also for men under 60, according to Dpa.
The Land of Brandenburg, which surrounds the German capital, has also made the same decision, as the spokesman for the Health of the German Land has announced.
The Land of Berlin had stopped vaccinations with AstraZeneca for women only under 60, in light of new data on side effects.
According to the Paul Ehrlich Institut, the national institute for vaccinations, there are 31 cases of cerebral thrombosis in Germany to date after the AstrAzeneca vaccine.
The Vaccine Commission in Germany, Stiko, recommends vaccination with AstraZeneca only for people over 60. The Augsburger Allgemeine reports it, quoted by the Guardian. According to the draft recommendations, the Anglo-Swedish company's vaccine can always be given to younger patients at the discretion of their doctor.
