Media reports on death with Covid 19 vaccine
News is circulating on social media channels and information platforms about the death of a 91-year-old person in the canton of Lucerne after she had been vaccinated against Covid-19. Investigations by the cantonal health authorities have shown that, based on the medical history and the course of the disease, a connection between the death and the Covid-19 vaccination is highly unlikely.
A few days after a Covid 19 vaccination, a 91-year-old person suffering from several serious previous illnesses died in a nursing home in the canton of Lucerne. Neither the medical history nor the acute course of the disease had a direct causal relationship between the Covid-19 vaccination and the death, Swissmedic wrote. The comprehensive information available would point to a natural cause of death, which was also noted accordingly on the death certificate.
So far, no unknown side effects have occurred with vaccinations against the novel coronavirus, Swissmedic said. At the present time, there are also no indications of a change in the benefit-risk profile of the vaccine used.
