Italy's medicine agency AIFA said Italians under the age of 60 who received a first dose of the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine Vaxzevria can be given a different vaccine when they get their second dose, as reported in Yahoo!News.
Last week, Italy restricted the use of Vaxzevria to people over the age of 60, after a teenager who had received the shot died from a rare form of blood clotting.
"Based on clinical studies published in the last few weeks, AIFA's scientific committee has decided to approve the vaccine mix," AIFA said in a statement, adding vaccines developed by Pfizer and Moderna could be administered to people who first got an AstraZeneca jab.
