Stroke incidence has ballooned since the Covid vaccine rollout with cases often correlating with Covid waves. A new paper sheds light on why.

The Johnson & Johnson Covid vaccine has been approved for use in the U.K. after regulators initially held back on adding it to the national vaccine rollout because of its link to blood clots.

The CDC has said there is a "plausible causal association" between the Johnson & Johnson Covid vaccine and blood clotting after finding more U.S. cases of the condition among people who received the vaccine.

12 year-olds will be given Covid vaccines when they return to school after summer, according to reports. Oxford University’s child vaccine study is also testing the AstraZeneca jab on children as young as six.

There is a "possible link" between the Johnson & Johnson Covid vaccine and blood clots, according to the European Medicines Agency. The regulator says that a warning should be added to labels for the vaccine.

The EU Commission will not renew Covid vaccine contracts next year with AstraZeneca and J&J, according to reports. The vaccines produced by both of these companies are facing scrutiny over their links to blood clotting.

Federal health agencies have called for the US' Johnson & Johnson vaccine rollout to be paused immediately due to cases of recipients developing rare blood clotting disorders within two weeks of being vaccinated.

Europe's medicines regulator is reviewing possible links between blood clots and the Johnson & Johnson Covid vaccine. The UK has ordered 30 million doses of the jab, but it has not yet been approved by its regulator.
