Israel has not identified any evidence linking strokes to an updated coronavirus vaccine made by US drugmaker Pfizer and its German partner BioNTech SE, according to a health ministry official.
On Friday, the US Food and Drug Administration and the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention said that a safety monitoring system had flagged that the shot could possibly be linked to a type of brain stroke in older adults, according to preliminary data.
Around 389 648 people in Israel have so far taken the shot, which targets the original strain and its BA.4/BA.5 Omicron subvariant.
