The Cyprus News Agency reported that the victim faced a serious episode of blood clotting complications.

AstraZeneca is considered as the main used vaccine in Cypriot, however, various adults who registered for receiving the COVID-19 vaccine dropped AstraZeneca doses and went for other alternatives.
