Could German researchers have found a link between Astra and blood clots?
Researchers in Germany say they've identified what could be behind the reports of blood clotting in people who have had the AstraZeneca coronavirus vaccine. The German team - in yet to be released pre-print research - say that the vaccine could in rare circumstances cause an autoimmune reaction that leads to clots.

So on today's Coronacast, a rundown of the findings that could offer a reason for the reported blood clotting issues.
