Vaccine-induced thrombosis and thrombocytopenia (VITT) in Ireland: A review of cases and current practices
Since the beginning of the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS CoV-2) virus pandemic, several highly effective and safe vaccines have been produced at remarkable speed. Following global implementation of vaccination programmes, cases of thrombosis with thrombocytopenia following ad...
