As of May 11, the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine is not being administered in Ontario for patients receiving their first COVID-19 vaccine due to a rare but serious potential side effect referred to as Vaccine-Induced Immune Thrombotic Thrombocytopenia (VITT). The change in this guideline is primarily due to the recent increased availability of mRNA based vaccines in Ontario, which do not carry any risk for VITT.
The Ontario COVID-19 Science Advisory Table has developed a Questions and &Answers Summary to address concerns re. VITT.
Pregnancy is a risk factor for complications from COVID-19, therefore vaccination is highly recommended.
