Two families believe their loved ones would still be alive if vaccine warnings had been shared.
The parents of a young woman who died after being given an AstraZeneca Covid jab have accused the NHS of failing to pass on known safety warnings about the vaccine.
A Department of Health and Social Care spokesperson said: "Throughout the pandemic the health system responded quickly to reports of extremely rare cases of complications following vaccination.”during the pandemic, but as in Marina and Oli's cases, caused rare - and sometimes fatal - blood clots. She had developed a headache and sickness by 22 March and went to a London hospital only to be sent home with migraine tablets, despite mentioning she had had the jab recently.
"But the next day it was worse and she started having issues with her arm - she was lifting up her arm and holding it, and that’s when it all went mad." The Waldrons want to know why medical professionals were not informed about the risks associated with the vaccine earlier when other countries were putting a halt on the vaccine and why appropriate diagnostic measures were not taken promptly.
Mr Waldron added: "We don’t know how many other people went through the same thing and died from the same thing as Marina."Oli Akram Hoque, 26, from London, also suffered rare and fatal complications after receiving the AstraZeneca vaccine, dying from a blood clot on the brain on 15 April.His headaches became progressively worse and he went to an A&E department at a London hospital on 4 April.
His sister Anika Hoque said: "He was saying 'why do I feel like this?' and he was pressing his hands... the doctor didn’t think that it was anything to be concerned about." The MHRA said: "Regarding the scope of MHRA’s powers to compel information to be provided by hospitals to patients, the Agency does not have legal powers to compel healthcare professionals to provide additional information."
