All I'm questioning is the quality of the news coverage. Thanks for adding details, no thanks for assuming I'm an idiot. And if we have three other vaccines that are all known to be more effective, why should anyone bother with the one that causes blood clots?

Apologies, I've misread your comment as 'experts didn't consider X', which to my surprise was a common pattern in the responses. You do clearly criticise the news coverage, not the experts.

I agree with you that loosing AZ is not a disaster, still we have a considerable shortage of vaccines in Europe, and giving AZ to a subset, say, men and women over 65, seems like a more reasonable solution.
