Continue using AstraZeneca vaccine, says WHO

The WHO urges countries not to pause Covid-19 vaccinations, as several major EU countries halt their rollouts of the Oxford-AstraZeneca jab. It says there is no evidence of a link between the vaccine and blood clots. Spain, France, Italy and Germany joined smaller nations in halting vaccinations as a precaution while checks are made.
