Thanks Anthony this was extremely useful and informative. I hope the same panel will subsequently do another webinar to discuss AstraZeneca and blood clots in ITP people. After watching this I am going to ask my consultant for his opinion on whether a flu jab in October 2019 could have led to a platelet count of 2 in February 2021

thank you, anthony foe this! ❤️
