[Asia Economy Reporter Na Ye-eun] A story has been shared about a husband in his 40s with two children who died less than a day after receiving his second dose of the COVID-19 vaccine.

On the 5th, a post titled "A 43-year-old father of two children died less than a day after the second Moderna vaccination" was uploaded to the Blue House National Petition site.

The petitioner, Mr. A, said, "My husband is 43 years old and the father of two children aged 5 and 11. He was taking blood pressure medication regularly, but his blood pressure was well controlled, and he had no other special underlying conditions," adding, "Other than the blood pressure medication, he was healthy enough not to need to visit the hospital."

He continued, "Since his work is in construction, access to the site was restricted without vaccination, so he had no choice but to get vaccinated."

Mr. A said, "(My husband) received the first Moderna dose at 11 a.m. on September 19. After the vaccination, his symptoms were pain at the injection site and slight chills," and added, "Starting 20 days after the first dose, every morning he felt like his chest was burning, with severe pain in his chest and ears."

He went on, "My husband had a second Moderna dose scheduled at 11 a.m. on October 24 at a hospital in Cheongna. Before the vaccination, he informed the hospital about the symptoms he had experienced, the medications prescribed by the hospital, his blood pressure, and blood sugar levels, but the hospital recommended proceeding with the second dose, saying it was possible."

He added, "Although he did not want to get the second dose due to side effects from the first, the current situation was that even if side effects were reported, the second dose was still considered possible, so he had no choice but to get the second vaccination," and "On the day of vaccination, from noon, he experienced arm pain and slight chills, but it was not severe."

Mr. A said, "Around 8 a.m. the next day, his chest pain worsened, feeling like it was burning, and he was rushed to the hospital by ambulance, but he suffered cardiac arrest," and "I begged the medical staff to save him, but my husband ultimately passed away and could not return."

He appealed, "The government says to seek medical care if abnormal symptoms occur after vaccination, but when we actually visit the hospital, they do not issue a medical opinion letter," and "Please help so that my husband's unjust sacrifice is not in vain and so that our children can grow up without scars in this harsh world."
