Saudi Arabia: No deaths related to COVID-19 vaccines
More than 3 million doses administered across kingdom
Dubai: Saudi Arabia on Sunday affirmed that no deaths linked to COVID-19 vaccine have been reported in the Kingdom, local media reported.
“There have been no deaths reported due to or related to taking any kind of COVID-19 vaccine in the Kingdom,” Dr. Mohammad Al Abdul Ali, spokesman for the Ministry of Health, said during a press conference.
A total of 3,026,355 doses have been administered across the country, he said.
“There is no need to postpone pregnancy after taking the vaccine, and a breastfeeding woman can take the vaccine, as it will not affect her or her infant,” Al Abdul Ali stressed.
He added that there is no correlation between vaccines as a cause of clots, and all the specialised and concerned scientific bodies have proved that this information is incorrect and inaccurate, indicating that the only contraindication to taking the vaccine is severe over-immunity from the vaccine itself.
