The State Institute for Drug Control (ŠÚKL) has completed an investigation of the third case of a death occurring in the days following a vaccination against Covid-19, with the victim being a 47-year-old woman inoculated with the AstraZeneca vaccine.
The woman died from a thrombosis, which is one of the possible, yet very rare adverse effects of the vaccine. Genetic screening, however, showed that the woman suffered from a blood-clotting disorder. Given her genetic predisposition, it was determined that there was a probable link between her vaccination and the thrombosis that ensued, Magdaléna Jurkemíková, ŠÚKL spokesperson told the TASR newswire.
