The parents of a woman who allegedly died after taking the Covishield vaccine, developed by AstraZeneca and Oxford University, are suing Serum Institute of India. AstraZeneca admitted in court that its vaccine can cause rare side effects. The woman's father seeks compensation and an independent medical board inquiry. Despite insufficient evidence linking her death to the vaccine, legal action follows global concerns over rare blood clotting side effects. Covishield, sold worldwide, faces scrutiny amid ongoing lawsuits against AstraZeneca.
