Pharmaceutical company AstraZeneca has acknowledged in U.K. court documents that its COVID-19 vaccine can cause a rare side effect, as first reported by The Telegraph. Dozens of victims have filed a class-action lawsuit claiming the vaccine caused death or serious injuries.
AstraZeneca submitted legal documents to the High Court in the U.K., accepting that its COVID vaccine “can, in very rare cases, cause TTS.”

TTS, or thrombocytopenia syndrome, causes the body to produce blood clots and a low blood platelet count. It can also be a side effect of taking certain medications, according to the Mayo Clinic.
Fifty-one families are suing the pharmaceutical giant. The first case was brought by a man named Jamie Scott, a husband and father of two, who received the vaccine in April 2021. Scott said the vaccine left him with a permanent brain injury. He claims he developed a blood clot and brain bleed that prevented him from working.
Lawyers for AstraZeneca acknowledge the vaccine can cause TTS; however, they don’t accept that their vaccine caused Scott to experience TTS.
Scott’s wife told the publication she hopes the admission will allow them to resolve the issue “sooner rather than later.” She added that she wants an apology and fair compensation for her family and others that have been affected.
