Most people here got the math wrong... it is not x of 17mil. but X number of cases for women vaccinated with AZ in the age group 20-50.

This kind of thromboses seem to happen mostly to women. While there is no correlation yet found, such kind of thrombosis are until now mostly caused by hormones from for example anti baby bills or other situations where the hormonal balance is not normal.

Most that were vaccinated in the uk with AZ are old people. The cases only happened in countries were AZ was used to vaccinate younger people such as health care workers. While pfizer and moderna were used only for old people. Plans were made to soon start wide spread vaccination using AZ on those below 50.

If the hypothesis holds that women below age 50 have a risk larger than dying from covid to get the brain thrombosis. We might need to give AZ only to men + women older than or younger than N years.

"anti baby pills" is an interesting term, here in the U.S. we normally call it "contraceptives". I'm assuming you're in Europe, I know in German it would be "Antibabypillen".

Is there any data on whether the people that had the thrombosis on AZ were also on contraceptives? The high incidence group seems to be women under 50. The same group that is most likely group to take contraceptives.

Maybe two things that cause bloodclots at the same time make it much worse.
