It is not yet proven that vaccination has caused the fatal complications
Brazil s Health Ministry Tuesday announced that vaccination of pregnant women and mothers in Brazil against Covid-19 will be restricted only to patients with comorbidities (pre-existing diseases) and they would only be given CoronaVac or Pfizer vaccines, following a death which might be linked to the AstraZeneca immunizer.
For that reason, authorities have advised pregnant women who have already received the AstraZeneca medication to seek proper follow-up, after the National Health Surveillance Agency s (Anvisa) recommendation pending a probe into the rare death on May 10 of a 35-year-old pregnant woman due to a hemorrhagic stroke that may be linked to the use of the AstraZeneca vaccine.
