She wrote, “I would like to apologise in regards to my statement about the AstraZeneca vaccine, that it can cause blood clots in the heart and that it had something to do with Haziq’s death.”

Aqila shared that she had apparently misunderstood information that doctors had shared.

“I would like to clarify that I had misunderstood doctors’ statements on the pros and cons of the vaccine for every individual. Then, I wanted to share the information I received without fact-checking it first.”

“The conclusion is that it was all my opinion and I am less knowledgeable about medicine. I would like to thank everyone who approached me prudently,” she added.
