[Asia Economy Reporter Na Ye-eun] A story has been shared about a man in his 50s who died of a myocardial infarction two weeks after receiving the third COVID-19 vaccine (booster shot).


On the 17th, a petition titled "My husband died two weeks after getting the booster shot" was posted on the Blue House National Petition Board.


The petitioner, Ms. A, revealed, "My father-in-law experienced severe chest pain after receiving the booster shot and underwent a stent procedure during a worrying time, so I told my husband to take his time before getting the third dose."


However, despite Ms. A’s objections, her husband said, "I work and must not cause trouble for others; trust the government," and after receiving the second vaccine dose, he got the third dose on December 27 last year, three months later.


Afterward, Ms. A’s husband died of a myocardial infarction two weeks after the vaccination.

Ms. A said, "On the evening of the 9th, the 13th day after the booster shot, my husband experienced severe chest pain and vomiting, took painkillers, and went to sleep, but I never dreamed that would be the last."


She continued, "Our son, a high school senior, was so shocked that he didn’t speak for several days, and as a housewife, I don’t know where to start. People around me say I should quickly pull myself together because I have to take care of two children, but I don’t know what to do first," she lamented.



She added, "The head of the family, who trusted the government and worked diligently, died overnight, but no one takes responsibility, and there is nowhere to ask. Who am I supposed to trust and rely on?" she expressed in frustration.
