I think every one has to make the best decision with the information they have in front of them. If there is factual feedback that people are getting blood clots, I'd rather pass on the vaccine. Fortunately that particular vaccine is no longer in use in South Africa. Probably also the reason South Africa is so far behind with vaccinations. To date only 288,406 health workers have been vaccinated out of 1.5 million health workers. And out of a total population of 58 million. It's going to take ages before my turn arrives.
That's why test took in place. I do wonder why Oxford-AstraZeneca's tests don't find any blood clots in their test subject. Therefore it might be possible due to some health issue from one that took vaccine and got blood clots.
Anyway, there is other vaccine that, AFAIK, until now have no serious side effect. I'm not sure though, but I think there is many of them. We will have side effect like headache and it's true since our body are "reacting" to the vaccine. It's just a very common reaction from our bodies.
