Utah’s chief medical examiner urged the public not to reach conclusions about the death of a 39-year-old woman four days after receiving the second dose of Moderna’s COVID-19 vaccine. .
After Kassidi Kurill received her second jab on February 1, he became ill and was admitted to the hospital. Four days later, the ankle dies under mysterious circumstances.
But dr. Erik Christensen, medical investigator at Utah’s health department, told Fox News that the second dose of the tragic mother and her death was only ‘temporarily related’.
“At this stage we have no evidence that there is a link between vaccines and deaths,” he insisted. “We have no indication of that.”
Christensen said that side effects from vaccinations are to be expected, but that the way people respond to the vaccine will ultimately be determined by their biology.
“There are definitely side effects of a vaccine that can be directly linked to the vaccine and that go on in your body,” Christensen said. ‘You know, the pain in the arm … the feverish symptoms associated with your immune response to what has been put into you. These kinds of things clearly happen. ”
Kurill, who received the vaccine because of her work as a surgical technologist, had a sore arm after the first dose but had no other side effects, her father, Alfred Hawley, told KUTV.
But things took a tragic turn after she received her second dose when she soon fell ill and ended up in a hospital, where doctors determined her liver was no longer well, Hawley said.
She died 30 hours later.
The Food and Drug Administration requires vaccination providers to report any deaths after COVID-19 samples to the Vaccine Adverse Report System, which shows that there are four deaths involving Utah residents, according to Fox News.
One of the four games of Kurill’s age, while the other three were all in their 80s, reports the store.
The Utah Department of Health told Fox News that the medical examiner’s office will “investigate any death where the COVID-19 vaccine is listed on the death certificate.”
However, there is currently no evidence that the jab is dangerous.
‘There is no evidence that COVID-19 vaccines have caused any deaths in Utah. “Reports of adverse reactions and death after vaccination do not necessarily mean that the vaccine caused the reaction or the death,” he said.
“Concerned reports are verified and scientifically examined. The CDC also monitors each death report to request and learn additional information about what occurred and to determine if the death was due to the vaccine or unrelated. ”
Christensen said that cases of deaths after vaccination are worth investigating, but added that it is only ‘speculation’ until we know all the results.
An autopsy was performed on Kurill’s body, but the state’s medical examiner could not comment on it due to privacy laws.
