Health authorities in South Korea have announced that there is no evidence that Covid-19 vaccines cause Leukemia.
This comes after some people in South Korea have been voicing concerns over people reportedly getting Leukemia after being vaccainated against COVID-19.
The announcement was made after consultations with the Korean Society of Hematology.

And,experts also said that there has been no report of causality between existing vaccines and leukemia.
"There is no need to worry about getting leukemia after receiving Covid-19 vaccines.
Please get the COVID-19 vaccinations for your own health."
Meanwhile, South Korea received more than 1million doses of the Moderna vaccine on Thursday.
According to health authorities, this is part of the 6 million doses of the vaccine scheduled to arrive in the country before the end of the weekend.
In August, Moderna notified health authorities of a delay in supply,putting a dent in the government's target to give first doses to at least 70 percent of the population by September.

However, the government has said the arrival of the vaccines this week means it's still on track to reach that goal.
"Moderna vaccines will arrive in batches ,and we expect that sufficient quantities will be supplied so that vaccinations can be carried out without any difficulties.
So far, over 29 million people,or 57.4 percent of the population have received their first shots.
More pfizer vaccines have arrived in South Korea as well.
Over 526-thousand doses landed at Incheon International Airport on Thursday afternoon.
This is part of the 1.5 million doses the goverment purchased from Romania through vaccine cooperation.
