BERLIN, March 15 (Reuters) - Germany continues to use
AstraZeneca's COVID-19 vaccine according to the European
Medicines Agency's guidelines despite reports about serious
side-effects and a suspension of the vaccine in some countries,
the health ministry said.
The reports of potential safety risks are taken seriously
and data is examined constantly, a ministry spokesman told
Reuters. Further proceedings will be discussed with the European
and the national vaccine regulators this week, he said.
