The Republic of Ireland earlier made a similar decision over reports of blood clotting events in adults in Norway but the World Health Organization says there is no link between the jab and an increased risk of developing a clot.

Similar moves have been taken by Denmark, Norway, Bulgaria, Iceland, the Democratic Republic of Congo, and Thailand. Several other European countries, including Italy and Austria, have suspended the use of certain batches of the drug as a precautionary measure.
