Now that NACI& #39;s guidance is out I am going to say that unless you are at elevated risk of SARS-2 right now due to life circumstances, I will reiterate that I believe the risks and benefits of AZ vaccine for those under 50 warrant a serious conversation with a healthcare provider.
If you& #39;re over 50, by all means, get AZ. It& #39;s a good vaccine and your risk of adverse outcome if you do get COVID-19 is elevated.
I& #39;d also call upon Health Canada and public health agencies to be transparent with the public about risk of VITT, which is likely to evolve as we recognize cases. It isn& #39;t informed consent if people don& #39;t have access to timely, accurate information.

That is all.
