A case in which medical staff in their 60s who received a vaccine for a novel coronavirus infection (Corona 19) jointly developed by US pharmaceutical company Pfizer and German Bioentech died within four days of vaccination.
Local media such as Orange County Register reported on the 27th (local time) that Tim Juke, 60, who worked as an x-ray operator at a hospital in Santa Ana, California, died four days after being vaccinated with Pfizer vaccine.
Juke finished the second dose of Pfizer’s vaccination on the 5th, but after a few hours, he had adverse reactions such as shortness of breath and upset stomach.
Juke showed adverse reactions such as shortness of breath and upset stomach a few hours after completing the second dose of the Pfizer vaccine on the 5th. As a result of the emergency room diagnosis, Juke was diagnosed with symptoms of suspected coronavirus and congestive heart failure.
Juke, whose blood pressure fell and showed abnormal kidney function, died on the 9th while receiving treatment with a respirator attached.
His wife, Rochellezuk, said her husband had high blood pressure and was slightly overweight, but he had no health problems.
“My husband believed in the corona vaccine and I think he would have wanted others to get it too,” he said. Should be revealed.”
The Orange County coroner’s office is investigating the cause of Juke’s death. If it is determined that there is a connection to the vaccine, it will notify the health authorities.
This is not the first case of death after vaccination. Gregory Michael, an obstetrician and gynecologist in Miami, Florida, died of a cerebral hemorrhage 16 days after vaccinating Pfizer.
Michael died after being admitted to an intensive care unit with symptoms of immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), in which his blood did not clot normally.
Also, according to county health officials, on the 21st, a resident of Placer County, California, died hours after vaccination.
Health officials were investigating the cause of death, but did not disclose the identity of the resident and the type of vaccine they received.
