88-year-old dies hours after vaccine;
doctors stress he was seriously ill
Hospital says deceased, who collapsed at home, had a long history of health ailments

An 88-year-old man died at a Jerusalem hospital Tuesday, hours after receiving the coronavirus vaccine, with doctors stressing in a statement that the patient had serious preexisting health problems.
The man had received the first dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine during the afternoon as part of Israel’s mass inoculation program. He later collapsed at home.
Paramedics called to the scene worked to resuscitate him as they rushed him to Hadassah Mount Scopus Medical Center where doctors later pronounced his death. Discouraging any link between the shot and the death, the hospital said the man suffered from “chronic, complex and difficult” health conditions, without specifying.
It was the second reported death to happen
hours after an elderly Israeli received the inoculation.
On Monday, a man, 75, received a vaccine shot in his northern hometown of Beit She’an. After waiting an obligatory half an hour at the medical clinic, he was released home, saying he felt fine. Some time after getting home, he lost consciousness and was later pronounced dead as a result of heart failure.

Looks like they were both very unhealthy but
they died within hours of getting the vaccine.

Well ScoMo is holding off fast tracking the vaccine which is fine by me. People who have been vaccinated overseas will still have to go into quarantine too.
But we don't even have a body to oversee emergency approval anyway apparently? What the?

The doctor or doctors who advised sick old
people to get the vaccine should be sued in court.
