The Spin
Narrative A
AstraZeneca has always acknowledged this could be a very rare side effect of the jab. However, there could be other contributing factors to patients developing Thrombocytopenia Syndrome. Aside from the few instances where recipients may have suffered this side effect, the vaccine has saved millions wherever it was distributed.
Narrative B
As the claimants in this case can attest, AstraZeneca downplayed the risk of this vaccine while exaggerating its effectiveness. Otherwise healthy people have faced the consequences of these side effects and the pharmaceutical firm must compensate the ones who survived their unnecessary medical crises.
