Regulator Reviewing Reports of ‘Rare’ and Serious Condition Linked to Moderna Vaccine
According to a bulletin posted by the European Medicines Agency (EMA), it is reviewing six cases capillary leak syndrome, considered a “very rare disorder,” after they were reported in the EMA’s EudraVigilance database.
“Capillary leak syndrome, according to the Mayo Clinic, is a rare disorder involving repeated leaks of large amounts of plasma from blood vessels into nearby body cavities and muscles. The condition—known as Clarkson’s disease—can result in a sharp drop in blood pressure that can lead to organ failure or even death.”
