[Asia Economy Reporter Na Ye-eun] A story has been shared about a father in his 50s who passed away just two days after receiving his second Pfizer vaccine dose, two weeks before his daughter's wedding.


On the 3rd, a petition titled "My father passed away after receiving his second Pfizer vaccine dose two weeks before my wedding" was posted on the Blue House National Petition site. The petitioner, Mr. A, explained, "My father received his second Pfizer vaccine dose on September 13th. The next day, he complained of abdominal pain and diarrhea, visited the hospital, was examined, prescribed cold medicine, and then returned home."


Two days later, on September 15th, unlike usual, his father showed no signs of activity from the morning and was found by Mr. A's grandmother with a stopped heart. Mr. A stated, "He passed away with his fists tightly clenched, showing how much pain he must have been in while sleeping."


He added, "My father was born in 1966, so he was not even 60 years old and had been healthy without any particular symptoms. Even if he had underlying conditions, he passed away less than two days after vaccination, so we could not overlook the suspicion regarding the vaccine and requested an autopsy."


He said, "The autopsy revealed that he died from a ruptured blood vessel due to aortic dissection," and added, "Aortic dissection is related to hypertension, but according to vaccination guidelines, hypertension was not a disqualifying condition for vaccination."

Mr. A pointed out that "The police and the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency only informed us that results regarding causality would take time and have not contacted us further," criticizing the authorities for their irresponsible attitude.


He especially lamented, "The government keeps attributing vaccine side effect victims’ conditions to underlying diseases and concludes there is no causality, while blindly recommending vaccines to the public. Many healthy people trust only the government, get vaccinated, suffer from side effects without knowing the cause, and even die, yet it is absurdly difficult to have the vaccine’s causality recognized."



Meanwhile, as of 3 p.m. on the 4th, the petition has surpassed 2,700 participants.
