After Covishield vaccine side effects disclosed, grieving parents move to court against Serum Institute o – The Times of India

AstraZeneca, the company that sold the vaccination in India, acknowledged in court a day ago that the Covid injection can have an uncommon side effect. As a result, the parents of the woman who is said to have died after taking the vaccine have chosen to sue Serum Institute of India (SII). With the revelation of AstraZeneca's admission, the parents are optimistic of justice. The multinational pharmaceutical company is facing legal action from a class-action lawsuit alleging that the Covid-19 vaccine, which it co-developed with the University of Oxford, resulted in fatalities and severe injuries, including thrombosis with thrombocytopenia syndrome (TTS), a dangerous side effect that lowers platelet counts and causes blood clots. Karunya, the daughter of Venugopalan Govindan, passed away in July 2021 following her Covishield vaccination. Nonetheless, the government-appointed national committee found insufficient evidence to draw the conclusion that the vaccine was the cause of her death. This is the result of AstraZeneca's admission in court documents that a rare adverse effect of their vaccination could be reduced platelet count and blood clotting. AstraZeneca is being sued in a class-action case in the UK.
