44 year-old BBC presenter, Lisa Shaw, has died of blood clots a week after receiving her first shot of AstraZeneca. She had no underlying health conditions.

Family: Lisa developed severe headaches a week after receiving her AstraZeneca vaccine and fell seriously ill a few days later.

She was treated by the RVI's [Royal Victoria Infirmary] intensive care team for blood clots and bleeding in her head.

BBC: The BBC has seen the interim fact-of-death certificate issued by Newcastle's senior coroner Karen Dilks. The document does not determine a cause of death.

(Blood clots) are considered extremely rare .. all of medicine is a balance of risk and benefit.

This is more bad news for AZ. It was a matter of time before a celebrity died and even though the BBC is stoically (coldly?) downplaying it, public confidence in the vaccine will sink even lower.

Purpose-built factories in the UK, Australia, and India are churning out billions of doses of AZ, which explains why health experts keep insisting it's safe and effective - gotta shift 'em somehow.

Apart from Lisa Shaw, there have been 58 AZ blood clot deaths reported in the UK so far, and 332 cases.
