Death; my question is, why wouldn't the CDC want to investigate/autopsy any individual who has an adverse event??? The body was sent to mortuary without autopsy, as the family wouldn't want one done at their expense. However, it would seem feasible that the CDC would see this as an opportunity to add to the available statistics on vaccine recipients. Its unknown whether the vaccine contributed to the adverse outcome, but given that this person had the vaccine recently, it should have been investigated. It seems there should be a protocol for Drs and medical examiners to note ALL conditions in the patient not just cause of death, if vaccinated within a few months to a year. It just seems like good research opportunities to me, and I have to wonder why it isn't being done.

My mother died on February 19, 2021. She had her 2nd dose vaccine on 2/11, on 2/12 it was noted that she was not able to walk, on 2/13 she was walking at 30%, on 2/14 she was walking with difficulty, on Monday 2/15 she was throwing up violently and her blood pressure dropped, so she was sent to Clinic. My sister was told she was just constipated and she had A Fib (never reported before to us). My sister was then told on 2/16 early a.m. that she had a blood clot that destroyed her colon. Due to age surgery would likely not be successful. She then died on the Friday. We are reporting in the event that the Pfizer vaccine was somehow a contributing factor to the A fib or to the Clot. She has no history of A fib or clotting prior to this incident. She was 93, and did have dementia, but was able to eat normal foods prior to this. What was unusual was the challenge in walking the day after the shot. Other than that no difference was observed until the day she was admitted to the hospital emergency room. She was a resident at Assisted Living, Memory Care, and that is where she received the vaccine. The mailing address I provided is her mailing address prior to death.

94 yo F presented from assist living with slur speech for 1 day, last seen well on 1/30. Pt has a PMH of dementia (Baseline, she will keep saying, "help me, help me", AOX3, using walker, could go to bathroom by herself), hx breast cancer (s/p lumpectomy, chemo, Tamoxifen, currently not on tx), HTN, HLD, vaginal bleeding (no further work up by family), overactive bladder (on solifenacin), hx of MI (undocumented, no PCI or CABG), spine stimulator placed. According to patient's daughter, she saw her January 30, she was doing okay after the vaccine. On 1/31 when the daughter called her on the phone, she knows she has some slurred speech, when she saw patient in the facility, she noticed her gait becomes unsteady. She decided to bring her to the hospital. 1/30, she noticed the patient has spilled up some water, otherwise denies fever, chills, shortness of breath, pain, chronically, she has constipations taking laxative. In the ED, pt was afebrile, 36.1, heart rate 85, blood pressure 130/61, respiratory rate 18, saturations 98 on room air. Labs shows, sodium 134, potassium 3.6, bicarb 28, BUN 18, creatinine 0.97, glucose 119, WBC 12.5, hemoglobin 11.8, platelet 239. PT INR 1.09, COVID negative. CT head suggestive of subacute infarct. Possible including small vessel ischemic changes. Chest xray questionable patchy left retrocardiac atelectasis or pneumonia. EKG shows atrial fibrillation's heart rate 71, QTc 610. Case was discussed with neurology in the ED, patient was not a TPA or embolectomy candidate. CT head suggestive of acute/subacute cerebellar infarct. Patient does not have any residual or sensory deficit except expressive aphasia. Neuro saw patient, mentioned patient appears to have had a stroke that by the CAT scan criteria is already subacute. The patient was admitted on the stroke pathway. The patient has new onset atrial fibrillation and therefore should be considered for anticoagulation. The patient cannot have an MRI of the brain due to her spinal cord stimulator but given that the stroke is already subacute on the CT without any signs of hemorrhagic conversion she could be started on this at this point. If she gets started on anticoagulation the aspirin should be stopped. If the patient cannot go on anticoagulation or does not want to then she might be a candidate for dual antiplatelet therapy for secondary stroke prevention. 2D echo shows normal ejection fraction of the left ventricle estimated at 70 to 75%. Regional wall motion abnormality was not observed. Right ventricle systolic function is normal. Moderate aortic stenosis. Cardio was consulted for anticoagulation, From cardioembolic prevention standpoint, anticoagulation is recommended to prevent CVA. However, she has significant risks for bleeding given recent vaginal bleeding (investigation not pursued to spare her comfort), age, comorbidities, etc. Again, further discussion between family and primary team is required regarding risks vs benefits. Was evaluated by speech-language pathology present minimal oral dysphagia no overt clinical signs of aspiration, recommended to continue with NDD 2 diet/thin liquid. Patient was discharged to ECF.

A 94-year-old female patient (mother) received 1st dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE) (Lot# EL1283), via an unspecified route of administration on 23Jan2021 13:00 at a single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. The patient's medical history included ischaemic stroke, haemorrhagic stroke in Aug2019, pulmonary embolism, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), cholesterol, myalgia condition, blood pressure, thyroid, sleep and vertigo. The patient concomitant medications included amlodipine for blood pressure, calcium carbonate/colecalciferol (CALCIUM + VITAMIN D), rosuvastatin calcium (CRESTOR) for cholesterol, levothyroxine for thyroid, eszopiclone (LUNESTA) for sleep medication, ascorbic acid, cupric oxide, dl-alpha tocopheryl acetate, xantofyl, zeaxanthin, zinc oxide (PRESERVISION AREDS 2), prednisone for myalgia condition, and escitalopram. The patient experienced fatigue, joint ache, nausea, vomiting, blood pressure 170/130, fever 100.1, stress, stroke like symptoms, numbness in her lip, momentary confusion; like she was having a TIA; not able to answer questions, tired, pervasive aching, all on 23Jan2021 19:00. Events reported as follow: patient had the Pfizer vaccine on Saturday around 1 pm and Saturday (Clarified 23Jan2021) night she had severe side effects for about 4 hours. When probed for side effects, the reporter stated it increased gradually over time. So, first patient had joint achiness and then she experienced nausea and vomiting. The reporter took her blood pressure. It was 170/130 and so reporter called EMS and they came up and her blood pressure had gone back down to normal and they recorded she had a fever of 100.1. EMS believed that the combination of the 'violence' of the onset and the fever caused her blood pressure to spike but she had a history of ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke. So, the reporter was concerned that the stress and whatever that was going on the reaction, the reporter was concerned that it was going to cause her a stroke. Patient had 2 stroke like symptoms, one was that she had numbness in her lip and the second was that she had momentary confusion, like she was having a TIA (reporter confirmed TIA as Transient ischemic attack). The only symptom of that was when the reporter asked her the name of her children she gave the names of her grandchildren but that confusion cleared up quickly and she was fine for a while but not able to answer questions, sharply. By the time that EMS got there patient was sharp again, no problem. For treatment, the reporter gave patient aspirin. The reporter put some Salonpas patches on her joints. It was like the analgesic patch. It was an external patch that patient put on. Patient usually does not need them that was why she was taking the prednisone to treat that kind of pervasive aching. The reporter also gave her the fluids, Gatorade kind of stuff to replace her fluids from throwing up and that kind of stuff. One more thing, it all started with an extreme fatigue but that seem normal but it seemed to lead into the other symptoms. Like it was a big day to go out and get the vaccine. So, she was a little bit tired. This was a very deep fatigue that was part of it too. Reporter stated only 81 aspirin (later clarified as treatment) as she could not go back on blood thinners because she had the hemorrhagic stroke. As of 11Feb2021, it was reported that patient still has not recovered her strength since 23Jan2021 19:00 and was reported as ongoing but improved. On 03Feb2021, the patient had vertigo that stayed for five days and was now improved. The patient was scheduled for the second dose on 13Feb2021. The immediate effects her mother had after the first dose of the vaccine were pain at the injection site; fatigue; fever; nausea. Mentions she also had some confusion and they were worried that the patient might be having another stroke. But all of this cleared up; all of this in a violent episode that lasted about four hours. Today she wants to report that her it took her a week for her mother to recover. Adds her mother could walk for half an hour before the vaccine but since the vaccine she still has not recovered her strength. Adds her mother has only been able to walk about 15 minutes with a walker and resting a lot, for a couple time in three weeks and this was their main way of maintaining her health. Adds her mother also had some vertigo last week that stayed for five days but she has had that in the past. Adds actually she still has the vertigo a little and she can tell when her mother bends her head. Outcome of blood pressure 170/130, she still has not recovered her strength and vertigo was recovering, outcome of events pain at the injection site, fatigue, fever, nausea and confusion was recovered on 23Jan2021 23:00; other events was unknown. No investigation assessment. Follow-up (11Feb2021): New information received from the same contactable consumer (patient's daughter) includes: reporter details, medical history, reaction data and course of events.

On May 14, 2021, at 9:30 p.m., patient was found on the floor by caretakers who had her taken to the Emergency Dept. She exhibited signs of a stroke; her left side was paralyzed. A CT scan of her brain was done, which showed a blood clot in her brain, which caused the stroke. She was taken to medical center, where she remains as of today, June 3, 2021. She remains paralyzed on her left side so she is unable to walk, or to use her left arm, or to swallow without aspirating food into her lungs. Potentially we have found a care facility and hope that she will be moved there within a few days. Of all the people I know, patient is the last person I would expect to have a stroke. She has always had good blood, a strong heart, strong bones, has never smoked or drank, has never been overweight, and has always worked hard and exercised daily. Her internal organs are all strong and well-functioning. She has had two CT scans of her brain within the last couple of years, the last one near the end of 2020, and they were both clear. These scans were done following falls which she took. She had the the COVID-19 on January 23 and February 17 of 2021 and had a stroke on May 14, 2021. There is no doubt in my mind that her stroke was caused by these injections. She will never recover from this event and will probably get pneumonia, which will bring about her death!

This 96 year old resident was diagnosed with COVID on 10/28/2020. She has a significant, complicated medical history and did not return to her pre-infection level of health. She began declining in early January and was made care and comfort measures only on 1/2/2021. Most of her medications were d/c'd except for those that provided comfort. No obvious reaction to the vaccine was seen and we do not suspect that her death was vaccine related, however we were directed by Dept of Epidemiology to report her death as it was within one week of receiving the vaccine.

Excerpt taken from patient's medical record notes. Recreational Therapist was in room with patient who was at baseline mentation at that time, and was getting patient a cup of tea. Rec Therapist observed patient to "all of a sudden slouch down toward left side" and became unresponsive. Therapist called for help, and Registered Nurse (RN) and Certified Nurse Aide (CNA) came into room. Patient was initially non-responsive and profusely sweating and hot to touch. Vitals were taken (see below). The patient then slowly became responsive after approximately 4 minutes and was visibly nauseous and appeared like she was going to vomit, but ultimately did not. Patient was assisted into bed, APRN was called, order for vital signs to be taken every 4 hours for 72 hours, and Electrocardiogram (EKG) to be performed. EKG results were abnormal, indicative of infarct; APRN ordered transport to Emergency Department. Patient returned from Hospital ED at approximately 10:45 PM same day (1/28/21), with transfer paperwork documenting a Hospital diagnosis of "Syncope" without any additional lab results or any new medication or treatment orders in the documentation. Follow up the next day (1/29/21) by RN at the Nursing Facility--RN logged into the Hospital medical Charting system, only to find that there was no record whatsoever of the patient being in the Emergency Department on 1/28/21--no notes, no labs, no summary from a practitioner. Patient recovered and has resumed close-to-baseline activity and functioning.

The above info is available but it is as my mothers....She had a bad reaction ( very flu like for several days). I proceeded with second shot in February....she did not feel well, but just sorta didn't want to get up anymore. She slept more and more and more. Her appetite declined. I got her up and she was ravenous. She slept more and seemed in a lethargic way to take less and less interest. She was living independently and had been most of her life. We scheduled an internist report. She passed labs with flying colors....... when you are 96 they look at everything as remarkable ( will live for 10 more years). I also was not equating any of this with the vaccine. However, we could not ignore it any longer Saturday the 4-10-21. I took her to ER. She was lucid and walking with difficulty. I took her in by ambulance as she was just saying, "I'm so week!" I'm so whoozie! On Sunday they are talking immediate intensive rehab. Neurologist leave for 5 days and in next 48 hours she becomes 200% less. First delusional, then sleeps all day. He showed me an MRI that to a layperson looked like little hives all over the brain ( I had also gotten hives from somewhere on my skin that I originally equated with Covid but no one thought so. I have also had the two shots.) One week out I was looking at Hospic eand long term care placement. Yesterday they couldn't get a diagnosis for Hospice ( the person sent to sign her up). I thought what? After all these tests and maybe it is cardio, maybe it is exchemic strokes, they don't have a diagnosis because she hasn't changed much since 2017? We have to take this totally fine independent woman and in one week say, "She has Dementia?" It's possible but what caused it? It's not age......we live until we are 110. Yes, that MRI showed me little formations of clotting all over ( no major bleed if any in a lobe). Over the last week I have been looking at her health and how we just slowly went downhill. It's easy to blame a vaccine, but still..........I am saying that there were NO OTHER reasons other than she didn't seem to tolerate the shots well........first was acute, and the second was long term and slow...........

I am the discharging physician and did not admit her but based off the information at admit: the patient received her Pfizer vaccine and developed nausea during her observation time but it was not significant enough to cause concern for the family. They took her home in good spirits and she appeared to be doing well until the evening when she became unresponsive. She developed high fevers and came to the ER with low normal O2 saturations and evidence of sepsis. Blood work showed a markedly elevated white count and an elevated lactic acid of 8 along with an elevated renal function and cardiac enzymes without EKG changes (multiorgan failure). Her COVID test was negative. Blood and urine cultures were negative. A CT scan of the abdomen demonstrated no acute findings but likely chronic fecal impaction. CT Head was negative for bleed or stroke. At this time is is unclear as to what was the cause of her symptoms but we believe it was presumed bacterial sepsis but this diagnosis is in question as all her cultures were unremarkable. The family opted on comfort measures rather than aggressive intervention and she was sent home with hospice. Since it occurred so closely after receiving the vaccine I think it was worthwhile to bring it to your attention.
