Australia had passed 130,000 doses of AstraZeneca being administered by late March. While there had been some deaths suspected of being linked to AstraZeneca reported in March the first deaths confirmed to be linked to AstraZeneca anywhere weren't reported until April. The third death in Australia linked to the AstraZeneca vaccine was in early July. Well over 5 million doses of AstraZeneca had been administered by then.

Canada temporarily suspended AstraZeneca after three deaths there in mid-May. At that time they had administered over 2 million doses of AstraZeneca.
