My intuition is that this is an unlikely worry. The people who actually understand the math on vaccines might be slightly more cautious, but won’t actually care, and will keep saying that vaccinating despite the blood clots was the right choice. While the people who are currently scared of vaccines won’t really care, and will just point to this as an additional reason to believe what they already believed.
This neglects to account for a large group of people who have no opinion and will be swayed by any news, positive or negative. Overcoming a formed opinion is going to be harder.
