Abstract

Cerebrovascular accident (CVA) is one of the commonest neurological deficits. There is a well-known association between COVID-19 and stroke. We present a case series of Sudanese patients who developed CVA after receiving the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine suggesting a relationship between the vaccine and CVA.
