UPDATE: Canadians who got AstraZeneca vaccine can be offered Pfizer or Moderna for second shot, NACI says

In Canada, 41 confirmed or suspected cases of vaccine-induced thrombotic thrombocytopenia have been diagnosed and five people have died.

Manitoba didn’t wait for the report to be published, announcing Monday they would offer AstraZeneca recipients Pfizer or Moderna if they wanted. A Spanish study concluded a second dose of Pfizer after a first dose of AstraZeneca produced more than twice the antibodies as a second dose of AstraZeneca.Article content

Until a week ago, fewer than one-tenth of new doses given out each were for second doses, but over the last week one-sixth of new doses were for second shots. While health experts say the risks of the clots is extremely low and is outweighed by the risks of COVID-19, NACI said people should only get AstraZeneca if they are over the age of 30, and live in an area where they are more likely to be exposed to the virus that causes COVID-19.

AstraZeneca recipients can get Moderna or Pfizer for second COVID-19 shot: advisory committeeNACI’s published report says AstraZeneca recipients can be offered the same vaccine if they want it, or can be given either Pfizer or Moderna for their second shot The advice from the National Advisory Committee on Immunization affects more than two million Canadians who received the AstraZeneca vaccine before provinces stopped using it for first doses last month. No thanks - I took AZ and 3 days later is was “paused”. This is new science and they clearly don’t have all the answers. I will take a second AZ to be on the safe side. Has anyone heard when AZ might be shipped into pharmacies ... believe they are still only offering the remnants of expiring doses.
