There is, by definition, still doubt over whether there is an “identifiable risk” with the Oxford-AZ vaccine. A link is plausible and there are plausible hypotheses around causation.

But as I’m sure you’ll agree, it’s important to be led by the science and not state more or less than has been established.
Suspect the politicians in the UK and EU - who don't have a vaccination plan of any substance without significant proportions of AZ vaccine will always play these 'doubts' despite the science.

The important part is that the benefits outweigh the risks, which they do. But that's not to say there are no risks.

What is quite obvious is that despite a huge "rally behind the flag' effort this couldn't be hushed up any longer against emerging evidence.
