As of April 2021, four adenovirus vector vaccines for COVID-19 have been authorized in at least one country:
- The Oxford–AstraZeneca vaccine uses the modified chimpanzee adenovirus ChAdOx1
- Sputnik V uses human adenovirus serotype 26 for the first shot and serotype 5 for the second.
- The Johnson & Johnson vaccine uses serotype 26.
- Convidecia uses serotype 5.
Research article excerpt:
During the last months many countries have started the immunization of millions of people by using vector-based vaccines. Unfortunately, severe side effects became overt during these vaccination campaigns: cerebral venous sinus thromboses (CVST), absolutely rare under normal life conditions, were found as a severe side effect that occured 4-14 days after first vaccinations.
The research is saying that these vaccines can cause blood clots 4 to 14 days after vaccination.
