Passage map:
From paragraph 1-4 >> AZ -> Blood clot (BC), so EU stop using it. The countries (Norway and others) suspended. EMA confirms AZ safe. With clot, EMA needs invest.
From para. 5-9 >> The result of vac. and the BC <dang< Covid19. Detail about EU tempo suspen. and compare to others. The death rate of AZ is low.
>> Find the data in the passage.
So, I choose C.
I choose A.

Inference Question
>> Find the data in the passage.
Quote:
>> From para.3, "On March 18th the EMA confirmed this advice." so this choice is incorrect.
Quote:
>> From para.4, "Any confusion lies in the difficulty of disentangling causation from correlation." but the author does not talk about how hard it is.
Quote:
>> From para.2, "The suspensions began after Norway reported four cases of blood clotting in adults given the az vaccine.", so the answer choice is right.
Quote:
>> From para.4, "By itself, that is no more remarkable than the fact that some of them will have suddenly had relief from chronic back pain or seen their cancer go into remission.", so the answer is too extreme.
Quote:
>> No mention about the side effect rate of Pfizer.
So, I choose C.
Quote:
Inference Question.
Quote:
>> From para.5, "Its medicines regulator reckons that both vaccines cause between three and six reports of side-effects for every 1,000 doses delivered, almost all of which are mild.", so if <0.0005% side effect rate, the answer choice can infer.
Quote:
>> There is no mention of the side effect of Pfizer, resulting in the wrong choice.
Quote:
>> No mention in the passage.
Quote:
>> No talk about how popular both vaccines.
Quote:
>> No mention in the passage.
I choose A.
Quote:
The main idea quesion.
Quote:
>> Keep it. The passage talks about the risk of AZ vaccine.
Quote:
>> "encourage" is not mentioned in the passage.
Quote:
>> there is no proof in the passage.
Quote:
>> No mention. Out of scope.
Quote:
>> how certain events negatively impacted vaccine distribution is wrong, so eliminate it.
I choose A.

The summary of the passage:
Because of few evidence of blood clotting after AZ vaccination, people and countries in Europe, except Britain, stopped taking AZ as a precaution, but the author thinks that this practice will cost more. The author encourages people to take the vaccine. The author support his claim by providing examples, result of experiment, etc.
Q. 1) According to the passage which of the following statements is true?
a. European Medicines Agency (EMA) has ignored the warnings issued by the EU countries [Opposite. EMA urged and no warnings are issued by the EU countries]
b. Separating causation and correlation is hard [CORRECT answer. Reference line from the passage: "Any confusion lies in the difficulty of disentangling (means separating) causation from correlation." ]
c. Norway was one of the first countries to suspend vaccinations [Norway reported four cases of blood clotting but it is not mentioned whether it was one of the first countries to suspend vaccinations]
d. Side effects of thromboembolic events were not remarkable [Side effects of thromboembolic events are not mentioned in the passage.
e. The AZ vaccine appears to have a higher side effect rate than the Pfizer vaccine [No comparison regarding side effect is made between AZ and Pfizer.
Q.2) According to the passage the author implies which of the following?
a. As long as the AZ vaccine causes less than 0.0005% side effect rate, it is worth taking [CORRECT answer. Reference line from the passage: "Even if it turns out to entail a minuscule (i.e. extremely small) risk of clotting disorders, vaccination is likely to be many, many times less dangerous than catching covid-19." ]
b. The Pfizer vaccine has been administered more widely but has the same side effect rate [The scope of using Pfizer is not mentioned or implied in the passage.]
c. People are willing to take the AZ vaccine even if there is a small risk of thromboembolic events [People are not willing to take this.]
d. The AZ vaccine is not as popular as Pfizer vaccine due to the recent concerns surrounding thromboembolic events. [Popularity of vaccine is not discussed in the passage]
e. People who are likely to get blood clots should not get the AZ vaccine [The author suggests the opposite. If it is not AZ vaccine, people sometimes experience blood clotting due to some other events. Reference line from the passage: "People routinely undertake activities that involve a small risk of blood clots, such as flying, taking birth-control pills, smoking and eating unhealthily." ]
Q.3) The main purpose of the passage is:
a. To outline the risk of the AZ vaccine [NO. The overall tone of the passage favors taking the AZ vaccine even if there is some risk]
b. To dispel the rumors surrounding covid-19 vaccines and encourage people to get vaccinated [CORRECT answer. Matched the summary of the passage. The author encourages people to get vaccinated because he thinks it will save millions of people.]
c. To argue that caution is not the right approach with covid-19 [Partially true but does not cover the whole idea of the passage.]
d. To highlight a flaw in the vaccine deployment plan [Vaccine deployment plan is not mentioned in the passage.]
e. To provide examples from past vaccination campaigns and how certain events negatively impacted vaccine distribution [Providing examples is not the main message of the author. Vaccine distribution is not discussed in the passage.]
