Her life took the wrong turn on the day she took her jab. She finally lost the battle. She gave up. She is gone. Rest in everlasting peace Mama Annet. RIP.

Majority of Kenyans have taken the AstraZeneca vaccine and even though cases of side effects have been reported, this could perhaps be the first case of death that is being blamed on the vaccine.

In August, Ministry of Health warned insurance companies purporting to cover side effectspurporting to cover side effects allegedly caused by the Covid-19 vaccination.

The ministry termed such adverts by the said companies as unethical and denotes that vaccines are unsafe and need underwriting.

The warning came after one of the insurers unveiled a cover for Covid-19 vaccine side effects. Individuals were to pay Ksh2,950 for the insurance policy dubbed ‘Chanjo’, which has a limit of Ksh500,000 for inpatient treatment.

At the end of 2020, the AstraZeneca shot was among the front-runners in the race for a COVID-19 vaccine. It showed promise in clinical trials, provoking a robust immune response suited for protection against the virus. The U.S. ordered 300 million doses, enough to cover 150 million people, and the E.U. initially ordered 80 million doses.

Then things changed.

Multiple countries have paused the use of AstraZeneca’s COVID-19 vaccine as a precaution while investigators look into cases of blood clots among vaccinated people.

In response to the suspensions of its vaccine, AstraZeneca said it had carefully reviewed the data on 17 million people who received doses across Europe. It said there was “no evidence of an increased risk” of blood clots in any age group or gender in any country, Reuters reported.

The World Health Organization (WHO) issued an emergency use listing for the AstraZeneca and Pfizer vaccines after they were shown to be both effective and safe.

The government has maintained the vaccines are safe.

The ministry further scolded the posts and advertisements circulating in social media on the issue as misleading and may lead to a vaccination boycott by a section of Kenyans.
