The Oxford-AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine has been branded “defective” in a multi-million pound landmark legal action that will suggest claims over its efficacy were “vastly overstated”. The Telegraph has the story.
The pharmaceutical giant is being sued in the High Court in a test case by Jamie Scott, a father-of-two who suffered a significant permanent brain injury that has left him unable to work as a result of a blood clot after receiving the jab in April 2021. A second claim is being brought by the widower and two young children of 35-year-old Alpa Tailor, who died after having the jab made by AstraZeneca, the U.K.-based pharmaceutical giant.
The test cases could pave the way for as many as 80 damages claims worth an estimated £80 million over a new condition known as Vaccine-induced Immune Thrombocytopenia and Thrombosis (VITT) that was identified by specialists in the wake of the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine rollout. …
The vaccine, which was heralded at its launch by Boris Johnson as a “triumph for British science“, is no longer used in the U.K. The Government recommends three other vaccines for its autumn booster programme.
In the months following the rollout, the serious side-effect of the AstraZeneca jab was identified by scientists. Following this, it was recommend it no longer be given to the under-40s in the U.K. because the risk of receiving the jab outweighed the serious harm posed by Covid.
AstraZeneca last night told the Telegraph that patient safety was its “highest priority”, that its vaccine, called Vaxzevria, had “continuously been shown to have an acceptable safety profile”, and that regulators around the world “consistently state that the benefits of vaccination outweigh the risks of extremely rare potential side-effects”.
It is understood AstraZeneca, in its legal response, denies causing Mr. Scott’s injuries.
Official figures from the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) show at least 81 deaths in the U.K. are suspected to have been linked to the adverse reaction that caused clotting in people who also had low blood platelets. In total, almost one in five people who suffered from the condition died as a result, according to the MHRA’s own figures. …
As many as 80 claimants could lodge legal cases with the High Court by the end of the year in a class action that threatens to undermine faith in the rollout of the AstraZeneca vaccine that was developed jointly with Oxford University.
In Mr. Scott’s claim, his lawyers argue that he suffered “personal injuries and consequential losses arising out of his sustaining Vaccine Induced Immune Thrombosis with Thrombocytopenia (VITT) as a result of his vaccination on April 23rd 2021, with the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccination”, which the legal claim alleges was “defective”. They also argue that no warning of the risk of VITT was included in the product information on the date of supply of the vaccine.
AstraZeneca issued press releases following clinical trials saying the vaccine – known as Vaxzevria – was between 62% and 90% effective at preventing symptomatic COVID-19 depending on dosages, with an average of 70%. The legal claim states: “In fact, the absolute risk reduction concerning COVID-19 prevention was only 1.2%.”
An absolute risk reduction measures how much the vaccine reduces an individual’s baseline risk of getting ill from Covid at a particular time. If Covid levels are low, the absolute risk reduction rate will be much lower too.
This is different from a relative risk reduction, which compares the numbers of vaccinated people getting ill with those getting ill who did not receive the jab.

Slowly but surely it’scoming (see big tobacco).
My only worry is that they’ll just throw AZ under the bus.
BUT, the sinister jabs are the already enabled mRNA jabs, genetic sleight of hand at its finest.
These are the ones to really worry about, and if we’re not careful ALL vaccines will be based on mRNA aka genetically engineered.

Good points and the real problem is the mRNA poison and the companies using it who know this vector is poisonous. It does indeed look as if AstraZeneca will be thrown under the bus, the sacrificial offering as it were. However, the publicity that the court case might generate will help to undermine the “vaccine” story in general which will be no bad thing.
What we can anticipate however is a MSM hatchet and burial job.
By concentrating on other matters; no shortage of wars to use up their bandwidth.
I’d be eternally grateful if either or both downtickers would give a considered critique of the papers I’ve referred to?
I promise I will pass any coherent response to the authors.
A pertinent question to the DTs is how many people and for how long were the current mRNA GT drugs tested; certain you know but do “they”?
I recall reading that they’re already gung-ho in approving mRNA for animal jabbinations. It may already be in the food chain.
Apparently not in your Xmas turkey yet. There was an item on the R4 “farming today” this morning about bird ‘flu, and it seems that the drug trade hasn’t produced any suitable “vaccines” against it yet. There also seems to be less of a risk of avian ‘flu than last year, so we’ll see.
Robert Malone for one has confirmed that development of mRNA treatments for animals have not progressed well?
The AstraZeneca didn’t use mRNA technology, it was more like a traditional vaccine using deactivated or modified virus particles. I’m not saying mRNA vaccines are safe, it’s just that the problems with the AstraZeneca jab don’t prove mRNA technology is unsafe.
It could be that TPTB admit there were problems with AZ and use this as a reason to say the future of vaccines belongs to mRNA and go all out to develop more of these dangerous jabs and force them on people
I’m sorry but you are entirely mistaken, it is not a conventional ‘dead virus’ jab.
It’s a viral-vector ‘vax’ that delivers DNA that can be transcribed as mRNA by the recipient’s host cells coding for a desired protein or antigen. (I got that from Wikipedia, lol)
Basically, it’s the same outcome as Pfisser and Murderna. Your cells become factories for a coded product.
My friend who was undergoing treatment for a brain tumour and seemed to be doing okay had the AZ shot, leading to a massive relapse one day after jab 1.
Complete left-side paralysis. Unable to get to the toilet unassisted. Aggressive return of his cancer. Eventually reduced to the use of just one hand, needing to write a text msg in order to speak. Now deceased.
Although causation is difficult to prove, the doctor flat-out refused to submit a yellow card. The doctor isn’t supposed to make the judgement of causality as for him it’s an isolated case and perhaps simply a vague correlation but nonetheless it should be submitted. I suspect due to fear of repercussions since the medical authorities were hot on this topic and made several open threats.
The govt definition of a Coof death was based on a temporal relationship of 28 days between test and death, which is so tenuous as to be paper thin.
But if it’s good enough for them, it’s good enough for me. A one day correlation is far stronger.
The AZ jab killed my friend.
Indeed. At cellular level the mechanism for creating the spike protein is very similar, it’s only the method of delivery of the ‘payload’ that’s different with the AZ jab.
For this reason, I agree completely that the AZ jab will be ‘thrown under the bus’ in an attempt to achieve ‘ritual cleansing’ of the mRNA jabs – no great loss since it’s already been discontinued.
The misconception which Matt Dalby has is widely held, so although this will have limited success, I think it will result in a tarnishing of all vaccines, mRNA more so, even though there will undoubtedly be a great, “mRNA good, viral vector bad” campaign.
PS sorry about your friend; Moderna / Pfizer killed a friend of mine, and caused heart attacks and palpitations in at least three more.
Thanks Shirespeed. You too.
While I agree with the idea that the risk versus benefit comparison is skewed, and used as a marketing tactic for the whole lot, the AZ product does not use mRNA. The AZ one uses a modified Chimpanzee virus. Evidently it has it’s own problems.
The real scandal is that the manufacturers and promoters have been allowed the short cut past the normal standards, by declaring Emergency Use Authorization (EUA), and potentially tweaking the definition of what a “vaccine” is from a functional perspective. In doing that, it looks as if there is a deliberate tactic of avoiding a full explanation to the general public, and relying on the common belief, supported by posters that declare “safe and effective”. No proper risk assessment for most of us.
“The real scandal is that the manufacturers and promoters have been allowed the short cut past the normal standards, by declaring Emergency Use Authorization (EUA), and potentially tweaking the definition of what a “vaccine” is from a functional perspective.”
Whilst I ackowledge the veracity of this, for me the really real scandal is that , worldwide, EUA status granted was fraudulent in every case and illegal. EUA can only be given if there is no other treatment available. IVM, HDCQ, monoclonal antibody treatments, along with some vitamin and non vitamin preparations – Zinc, NAS, Quecertin – were ALL previously approved and therefore prescribable. We all know now that that were was and continues to be a ill disguised concerted effort to deprive people these treatments; not necessary to go through all of that , we know who ( no pun ) was involved and the scope of that illegality.
Here in the UK, PHE, NHS and Govt decided that patients should stay at home if infected OR showing symptoms post jab – a disaster very predictably; no really treatment available because GPs criminally did not do their job. Very sick patients go to their NHS Trust Cv ward with……everyone else in the same state.
Messrs Kory, McCullogh and Chetty are just 3 of many tens of thousands of treating medics who saved equally many thundreds of thousand of people if not millions by recognising the 4 stages of the spike protein induced syndrome and treating early – QED.
One thing I am sure will not happen is Baroness Hallett taking evidence of this early treatment strategy that worked – call me a cynic by all means, prefer sceptic.
The real, real, real scandal is…
Oh sod it, it’s scandals all the way down.
It isn’t rocket science they talked openly about a new pandemic which would make it possible to introduce a new technology in a shock and awe fashion. Fauci and his colleagues held a conference about it several years before. And they know very well how diffident the general public are about their knowledge of science and so if the experts say something you will never challenge it if you don’t hve the confidence to do so.This is an evil that hasn’t properly been understood yet. This pathogen isn’t just a nuisance and a remnant it is with us now forever and becoming more resilient. r.Of course the technolgy involved is essentially the digital reproduction of a hypothetical pathogen and then the monstrous re-engineering into an antidote. Dr David Martin is right when he says that this is a bioweapon.
“threatens to undermine faith in the rollout of the AstraZeneca vaccine”. More like confirms the corruption at the head of the UK medicines regulatory agency. They gave it the green light. Cheered on by pathological liar and ditherer in chief PM Boris Johnson and his cohort. I sincerely hope they are bankrupted and go belly up.
Bear in mind that the variation in batch toxicity was centrally co-ordinated in terms of distribution. There was certainly at least one meta-level involved.
Maybe the Court System will appoint a well briefed judge to do to the claim what has been done to the Covid enquiry.
This is the problem given the parameters of the discussion. In our position we are inherently on the back foot. But I think that this is in the balance. In my job I deal with the general public and the rise in turbo cancer is astonishing. I mean no cancer at all to stage 4 in about a month. 30 year old who are accepting their own deaths. This is a very dark chapter in the history of cour country I hope we some day come to terms with it.
Will this be thalidamide all over again?
Yes, probably way more deaths, maybe less deformation at birth.
Maybe fewer births too.

Oh look Bozo is apparently effing about in Israel now. He does like a war doesn’t he?
And next year you can see him on the telly again, with a job on GBN! Electrical isolation is quite easy, fortunately.

Italy has banned Billy’s fake, lab grown and obviously extremely unhealthy “meat” because of serious health concerns.
I wonder how long Meloni will be able to hold out.
I read somewhere that in order to ‘grow’ meat the cells are pretty near cancerous anyway. I can’t recall the source though, I’ve read way too much in the last few years.
So the Global Health Security team from the Telegraph has finally had to admit that their Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation donations have been producing lies and propaganda, quite the opposite to “Health security”.
The censorship, cover ups, blatant lies about safety and efficacy, natural immunity, side effect information, obfuscation about numbers of deaths etc. are slowly being revealed. The dirty, complicit MSM is despicable.
Ah but they are still a key TNI member…..will that continue with whoever buys the DT?

Thanks WW.

As I understand it our Government freed the Pharma companies from liability so doesn’t it follow that due to rank stupidity by our leaders, we the tax payer who were forced to take this experimental death jab, were the ones who footed the bill for the product, and now will foot the bill for compensation. Meanwhile the Pharma businesses get to keep the profits, and even if they should by some miracle have to pay 80 million is pence to the tens of billions they made off the drug, it’s like fining Gates ten quid, it’s small change.
Not even that: they’ll do what the Sackler family did with Purdue Pharma over Oxycontin and J&J are currently doing to avoid paying out any more money for the talcum powder deaths – set up a shell company to take the risk and immediately file for bankruptcy. They’ve got it all sorted.
I understand that in the US, faulty manufacturing can erase any immunity – product liability looms.
The lawyers will love it – I know there are cases pending in the US as with all other aspects of this horror story. Not confident but let us wait and see.
I won’t hold my breath. The judiciary for the most part appears to be in on the act, and if the Hallet farce is anything to go by, this will be another slam dunk.
