[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Bong-ju] A woman in her 30s from the United States with no underlying health conditions died after receiving a COVID-19 vaccine.

According to the New York Post and others on the 11th (local time), Cassidy Currell (39) from Ogden, Utah, died four days after receiving her second dose of the Moderna vaccine on the 1st of last month.

Currell worked in a hospital plastic surgery operating room and was prioritized for vaccination.

When she first received the vaccine, she experienced no significant health issues other than soreness in her arm. She even encouraged her parents to get vaccinated quickly.

However, she experienced adverse reactions after the second dose.

According to Currell's father, after returning home from the second vaccination, she felt her heart racing wildly and also vomited.

She was taken to the emergency room, where blood tests revealed that her liver was not functioning properly.

Currell was transferred to Intermountain Medical Center for a liver transplant surgery but died 30 hours after arriving at the hospital.

The medical examiner who conducted the autopsy stated, "It is really difficult to prove through an autopsy that the vaccine was the cause of death," adding, "Only in cases of anaphylaxis (severe systemic allergic reaction) can the vaccine be directly considered the cause."

Currell had no underlying health conditions and showed no symptoms of anaphylaxis.

The medical examiner explained, "When something is injected into the body for vaccination or other treatments, there is a possibility of negative symptoms appearing," and added, "While adverse reactions are common, cases leading to death are extremely rare."
