So it seems like there is significant risk associated with the AstraZenica vaccine for certain age groups, and that it may make sense to avoid for those people.
These blood clots are unusual and triggered by immune-mediated platelet activation, and happening at higher rate than the base population in those subpopulations. It’s real and not the pill.
It seems like there is new evidence of significant risk of blood clots associated with the AstraZenica vaccine for young women.

That story references but does not cite these studies from the New England Journal of Medicine:
Thrombotic Thrombocytopenia after ChAdOx1 nCov-19 Vaccination

So it seems like there is significant risk associated with the AstraZenica vaccine for certain age groups, and that it may make sense to avoid for those people.
Young women have significant risk of blood clots because the pill has significant risk of blood clots and they are the demographic for the pill.
The fact that we see the cases in that group suggests that it’s not about “certain age groups” but taking the pill.
Speaking about “certain age groups” might be the result of too much political correctness getting in the way.
These blood clots are unusual and triggered by immune-mediated platelet activation, and happening at higher rate than the base population in those subpopulations. It’s real and not the pill.
It’s also lower than the risk of the pill.
Why do you believe it isn’t a combination of both?
The molecular details are not of a type that is caused by the pill.

Yup. High stakes free rider problem, in which we are comparing individual risk to collective benefit. And the moral calculus is a moving target.
