Ontario has reported its first case of a rare blood clot in a person who received the Oxford-AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine.
Dr. David Williams, Ontario's top doctor, says the 60-year-old patient had received his first dose of the vaccine.
Williams says the man has been treated and is recovering at home.
It's the fourth case of the rare clotting condition in Canada, out of more than 1.1 million AstraZeneca doses administered across the country.
B.C. has been facing a stark shortage of the AstraZeneca vaccine, with several doses being diverted from Vancouver Island Health to the Lower Mainland
