No information. Covishield is the Indian version of Astra-Zeneca coronavirus vaccine. Uses an adenovirus vector to transport the genetic code for the spike protein into your cells. It’s been (very slightly) associated with an increased risk of thrombosis compared to others. With family history would try for Moderna or Pfizer vaccine. Theoretically, low dose ASA MAY be beneficial
