Denmark has become the first European country to fully cease giving the Oxford-AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine amid concerns about rare cases of blood clots.
The move is expected to delay the country's vaccination programme by several weeks.
Drug watchdog the European Medicines Agency last week announced a possible link with clots but said the risk of dying of COVID-19 was much greater.
Several European countries recently suspended use of the vaccine briefly.
Most have now resumed vaccinations with AstraZeneca, but often with limits to older age groups.
