On December 30th my father tested positive for COVID. He was reported asymptomatic by the care facility staff. He was given vaccine on Jan 14th and began feeling ill that evening. The morning of the Jan 15th the nursing facility had my father admitted to emergency and then to ICU. He stayed in the hospital for 10-14 days and then was released on hospice at the senior care facility. He passed away on Jan 31st. I'm not sure if the sudden change in my father's health was due or made worse due to the COVID vaccine as the hospital was treating several symptoms, but the timing seems suspicious. I have also not been able to get an explanation for why he was given a vaccine if he tested positive. I do not know which vaccine was given, but needed to select one to submit the form.

ED to Hosp-Admission Discharged 4/28/2021 - 5/4/2021 (6 days) CRNP Last attending ? Treatment team COVID-19 virus infection Principal problem HPI: For complete history and physical see the H&P dictated by Dr. on 4/28/2021. This is a 76-year-old male who presented to the emergency department with upper respiratory symptoms for three days. He reports having cough, sneezing, runny nose and poor appetite. His caregiver had Covid recently and he was exposed. He was admitted for further evaluation and treatment. Hospital Course: Patient was admitted inpatient to the medical surgical floor. He was not on telemetry. Patient reports that his caregiver had recently tested positive for Covid and he was exposed. He has been having upper respiratory symptoms including cough, sneezing, and runny nose. His COVID-19 test was positive. He was started on the COVID-19 treatment protocol which included IV remdesivir and IV dexamethasone. He underwent a CT scan of the chest which showed small patchy areas of groundglass infiltrates in the peripheral portions of the left and right upper lobes and also the posterior aspects of the right lung base. These findings are probably due to pneumonia. Hospital course consisted of gentle hydration with IV normal saline. He was also started on antibiotic therapy oral azithromycin and IV Rocephin. He had completed the course of antibiotics while on the unit, therefore, at the time of discharge no antibiotics were prescribed. He initially was hypoxic and started on nasal cannula oxygen to maintain pulse oximetry greater than 92%. Eventually, oxygen was weaned and pulse oximetry on room air has remained in the 95-96% range. He has a history of diabetes mellitus and while on the unit blood glucose levels have fluctuated. His point-of-care glucose have been in the 80-500 range. He has had numerous episodes of hypoglycemia and insulin has been adjusted. The fluctuations of the blood glucose levels may be secondary to IV dexamethasone. At the time of discharge he will continue dexamethasone 6mg daily for the next three days. He was advised to increase insulin 70/25 insulin five units daily for the next thre days. After that time he can return to his normal dose of insulin. He also had been treated with IV remdesivir and had completed the 5-day course. On examination today he has been asymptomatic. He denies any chest pain, dyspnea, abdominal pain, nausea, or vomiting. The initial lab studies showed an elevated creatinine level, although he has a history of chronic kidney disease. At the time of discharge the creatinine level trended downward and he was advised to follow-up with the primary care provider for possible repeat BMP in 1 to 2 weeks. All other lab studies have been within normal limits. The systolic blood pressure has been in the 120-150 range. The most recent systolic blood pressure was 151/66 mmHg with a heart rate of 66 bpm. He denies any lightheadedness or dizziness. He was advised to continue all of his current medications. While on the unit he was in isolation secondary to COVID-19. At the time of discharge he should maintain social distancing/isolation, mask wearing and good handwashing. He will will need to follow-up with the primary care provider. He was also advised if the oxygen level dips below 89% he will need to return to the emergency department. At this time he is resting comfortably, offers no complaints and is stable for discharge. Patient is alert, oriented answering all questions appropriately. He is continent of bowel and bladder. Heis able to make his own decisions. He is able to performhis own ADLs. . At this time he is in agreement with the plan and feels comfortable to be discharged home. Thank you.

Overnight I developed very significant headaches (hardly ever had a headache before); in a few days I developed edema of my ankles and feet; checked blood pressure after a few days and it was very elevated; Took Tylenol for headaches (not very effective); Doctor had me move from 20mg Olmesartan to 40mg Olmesartan with 25mg hydrochlorothiazide which controlled my blood pressure and eliminated the lower extremity edema. When my blood pressure became dangerously low, I was moved back to just 20mg Olmesartan. Atrial fibrillation had been controlled prior to the vaccination with Multaq. For two days after the vaccination I had A-fib, then it went away. I have been monitoring my blood pressure and EKG since and the A-fib is becoming increasingly common, so that now I seldom had sinus rhythm.

On March 2, he woke up feeling bad and had a fever of 102.7. He took tylenol and liquids all day and the fever came down to around 100. The next morning he woke up complaining of excruciating pain in his left arm (site of the injection). He couldn't stand to have anything touch it, couldn't move it and couldn't sleep because of the pain. The next morning he woke up very weak, wasn't able to speak clearly, wasn't making sense. He had a telemedicine appointment scheduled that morning for another matter. The doctor took one look at him and said we should have him evaluated asap. I took him to the emergency room at Hospital. They did some tests and said he was septic and immediately put him into the ICU. He was started on IV antibiotics while the blood cultures were growing out. It was determined that the bacteria was Strep G but they were unable to identify the source. He was put on a ventilator and an echo cardiogram was done. It was believed that the source of the infection was his pacemaker and I was told the pacemaker would have to be removed. They couldn't do it at that hospital. He was transferred to another hospital. The doctors at that hospital determined the pacemaker was not the source. It was believed by some doctors that the source of infection was the injection site. The infection was cleared from his body and the ventilator was removed after 2 weeks. He lived another 2 weeks but never was able to recover. Until the day he was put on paliative care, he expressed pain in the arm where he had received the vaccination. He died at 5:30 a.m. on April 1, 2021.

A 78-year-old male patient received bnt162b2 (reported as COVID vaccine), dose 2 via an unspecified route of administration on 20Mar2021 (Lot Number: EN6201; Expiration Date: 30Jun2021) as 2nd dose, single (at the age of 78-year-old) for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included diabetes, Liver cirrhosis, thrombocytopenia, Kidney stone, sarcoidosis, blood pressure abnormal, high cholesterol, pacemaker and they putted the IVC filter for blood clot.

difficulty breathing; pneumonia; human immunodeficiency virus; pain in arm, neck and back; pain in arm, neck and back; pain in arm, neck and back; FACILITATED COLLECT This is a solicited report based on the information received by Pfizer from AbbVie Inc. (MFR Control No. # 21K-163-3841481-00). A non-contactable consumer (patient) reported for himself that a 78-year-old male patient received bnt162b2 (Pfizer, Batch/Lot number was not reported), intramuscular on 12Mar2021 as single dose for covid-19 immunization; adalimumab (HUMIRA, Batch/Lot number was not reported, Solution for injection in pre-filled pen), subcutaneous from an unspecified date to an unspecified date, at unknown dose for moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis. The patient's medical history and concomitant medications were not reported. The patient experienced difficulty breathing on an unspecified date, pneumonia in Mar2021, pain in arm, neck and back in Mar2021, human immunodeficiency virus on an unspecified date. The events difficulty breathing and pneumonia were reported as serious per hospitalization, event human immunodeficiency virus was serious per medically significant. The patient took covid-19 vaccine and afterwards had pain in arm, neck and back and could not breathe. He went to emergency room and was hospitalized due to difficulty breathing and was diagnosed with pneumonia. He did not know if this was due to vaccine and would not be taking second vaccine shot per his primary physician. He also had human immunodeficiency virus. It was unknown if patient was enrolled in a COVID-19 vaccine trial. On 12Mar2021, patient received first dose COVID-19 vaccine manufactured by Pfizer. The action taken in response to the events for adalimumab was unknown. The outcome of events for difficulty breathing was unknown, for other events was resolving. The reporter's causality for the event(s) of Pneumonia, Pain in arm, Human Immunodeficiency virus, Pain in Back and Pain in neck with adalimumab was no reasonable possibility. Causality for all events with COVID-19 vaccine was not reported. The reporter's assessment of the causal relationship of all events with the suspect product was not provided at the time of this report. Since no determination has been received, the case is managed based on the company causality assessment. Information on batch/lot number has been requested.; Sender's Comments: Based on known disease pathophysiology, the reported event of Human Immunodeficiency virus , pneumonia and dyspnea is assessed as not related to suspected product bnt162b2 vaccine and the events pneumonia and dyspnea are more likely due to underlying medical condition of chronic plaque psoriasis. However the reported events of Pain in extremities ,Pain in Back and Pain in neck is assessed as related due to close temporal association with the suspect product. However, more information is required on date of HIV infection deducted to properly assess the case. The case will be reevaluated should additional information become available. The impact of this report on the benefit-risk profile of the Pfizer product and on the conduct of the study is evaluated as part of Pfizer procedures for safety evaluation, including the review and analysis of aggregate data for adverse events. Any safety concern identified as part of this review, as well as any appropriate action in response, will be promptly notified to regulatory authorities, Ethics Committees, and Investigators, as appropriate.

Patient was recently admitted and discharged at hospital on 6/11 for pneumonia and a pleural effusion. It was determined during that admission that he had malignant cells in the fluid consistent with adenocarcinoma and chose to not work this up any further and foregone any treatment. He returned back to the hospital with continued shortness of breath, weakness and poor p.o. intake despite using the nebulizer at home. There was no fever no hemoptysis chest pain or pleuritic pain. Imaging again reveals significant airspace disease involving the right lower lobe diffusely and partially involving the right middle lobe on CAT scan with a small right pleural effusion seen. He had a CT of the abdomen and pelvis which was negative for any malignant spread. Patient was also seen by oncology who discussed further work-up, prognosis with the patient and felt that overall he was too ill to pursue any further work-up or treatment at this time and recommended hospice/palliative care. He was discharged home on hospice care with a terminal prognosis on 7/1/21

Male patient who to the hospital on 3/15/2021 due to 10 days of shortness of breath on exertion and right-sided chest pain. He went to his PCP for follow-up and had a CT PE study today which was positive for right upper lobe and right lower lobe pulmonary embolism. He notes that he received a 2nd 5 0 COVID-19 vaccination on March 6th and since then has not felt well, feeling short of breath and generally fatigued. He notes that he has not been very active since receiving the vaccine. CT PE study showed an increased RV to LV ratio 1.2. He had no elevation in his troponin or BNP. His echocardiogram showed an EF of 60% and there were no wall motion abnormalities and grade 1 diastolic dysfunction. Patient would prefer Eliquis at this time. He will need a 6 month course of Eliquis. Given the setting of recent COVID vaccination and recent decreased mobility as possible provoking factors, this will be treated as a provoked pulmonary embolus. Per hospital COVID vaccine protocol, patient presentation will be reported to pharmacy for FDA reporting.

embolic stroke; blood clot; His major issue was speech and wasn't able to formulate any words; left sided weakness on his leg; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable nurse (patient's daughter). A 79-year-old male patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), via an unspecified route of administration on 30Mar2021 11:00 (Batch/Lot number was not reported) as 2nd dose, single dose (at the age of 79-years-old) for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included transient ischaemic attack (TIA) from 2019 to an unknown date, mild hypertension, idiopathic neuropathy: in the left leg, started in the beginning of the year from 2019, melanoma removed in the 1970s, enlarged prostate, neuropathy, cholesterol and fluid retention. Ongoing concomitant medications included tamsulosin taken for enlarged prostate; gabapentin taken for neuropathy; candesartan taken for hypertension; pravastatin taken for cholesterol; acetylsalicylic acid (BABY ASPIRIN); and furosemide (LASIX [FUROSEMIDE]) taken for fluid retention. The patient has been taking all of his meds for quite some time, over 5 years. The patient did not have prior vaccinations within 4 weeks. The patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 on 09Mar2021 10:30 for COVID-19 immunization. The patient completed the Pfizer COVID vaccine series, the second shot was on 30Mar2021. On 09Apr2021, the patient had an embolic stroke. The patient's daughter stated that the patient has a history of TIA in 2019 and was concerned. She does not know if it was related. She added it might be that if people have previous risk, there may be some precautions, like to take a full dose of aspirin before, a week before. She sent an e-mail last 05May2021 and hasn't gotten a response back. The patient went to the ER due to embolic stroke and was in the hospital Friday (09Apr2021) through Wednesday. The patient went to the stroke rehab center for 3 weeks. The daughter clarified that the patient was in the hospital until 14 or 15Apr2021 before being transferred (also reported as 5 or 6 days and in rehab for three weeks). Then was discharged last 06May2021. The patient's condition seemed to be getting better. His major issue was speech and wasn't able to formulate any words. He was able to speak now. His rehab would be a lot of neurological rehab and speech therapy. The patient previously had left sided weakness on his leg from some random thing that happened. It didn't seem to get worse. It really affected his speech and cognition. The patient's daughter thought that the embolic stroke was related to the Pfizer Covid vaccine and added that thought was in some way but cannot say in what way. She thought that it exacerbated some type of blood clotting. She stated that he never had blood clotting issues before and was the type of person that would take a baby aspirin and get a nose bleed, he was the opposite of a clotter. An MRI in the hospital showed blood clot and stroke. He had blood work but does not know what it showed and presumed he was fine (unknown results). He has never really had any kind of blood work issues and does not know why he was on cholesterol medication. The patient required emergency room visit for embolic stroke. The outcome of the events was unknown. Information on the lot/batch number has been requested.; Sender's Comments: Considering a plausible temporal relationship and known product safety profile, a possible contributory role of suspect product BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE) to the reported "embolic stroke" cannot be excluded. Previous medical history and Old age is a risk factor for the onset of stroke. The impact of this report on the benefit/risk profile of the Pfizer product is evaluated as part of Pfizer procedures for safety evaluation, including the review and analysis of aggregate data for adverse events. Any safety concern identified as part of this review, as well as any appropriate action in response, will be promptly notified to regulatory authorities, Ethics Committees, and Investigators, as appropriate.

He stated he spent 4 days in the hospital and got his rhythm back to normal after 2 days. They put him on apixaban (ELIQUIS), which was a blood thinner. The AFib has resolved, he had no problem with it anymore. The patient underwent lab tests which included COVID-19 antibody test: negative on both 09Jun2021 and 16Jun2021. His HCP told him it was due to prednisone that lowers his immune system.

1 significant episode of asymptomatic Supraventricular tachycardia; transient ischemic attack; seizure-like shaking; shaking episode arms going up and down; extremely tired; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable physician (patient himself). A 79-year-old male patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), dose 2 via an unspecified route of administration in Feb2021 (Batch/Lot number was not reported) at the age of 79-year-old male as single dose for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included ongoing diabetes type two from 30 years, ongoing hypertension from 15 or 20 years ago, depression from 20 years ago, hyperlipidemia from 15 to 20 years, orthostatic hypertension (had it off and on for years; but it got bad in the last couple of months), pain and radiculopathy. Concomitant medication included metformin (1000 mg) taken for diabetes from an unspecified start date and ongoing (taking for years); glipizide (4 mg) taken for diabetes from an unspecified start date and ongoing (taking for years); lisinopril (10 mg) taken for hypertension from Mar2021 and ongoing; duloxetine (60 mg) taken for depression and pain from an unspecified start date and ongoing (taking for years); gabapentin (NEURONTIN) taken for radiculopathy, start and stop date were not reported. The patient previously took flu shot for immunization and took dose 1 of bnt162b2 in Jan2021 for Covid-19 immunization at the age of 79-year-old. Physician was calling regarding the Pfizer BioNTech COVID 19 vaccine. He had a very strange experience; added he was a physician and in reasonable good health. He had mild side effects, not much; the one side effect he did have was one week after the second shot he and his wife both felt extremely tired the whole day from Feb 2021. Physician mentioned that 4-6 weeks after getting the 2nd dose, he had a 3-5 minute episode of seizure-like shaking, shaking episode arms going up and down on 21Mar2021 and that he was just blankly staring and non-responsive. He had no other symptoms to suggest a seizure; no biting; no urination. This episode lasted three to five minutes. During the episode his wife said he was just staring ahead and he was non responsive to his wife who was only six inches away speaking to him. Then he started to vaguely he heard his wife's voice in the distance and then he woke up and then he was fine. Later that day he was hospitalized, they did a work up and discharged him about 4 days later. While in the hospital he thought he had a Blood work, CAT Scan; MRI; holter monitor; EEG but they were all normal. He had no other complications and the effect completely went away. Adds he was completely recovered when it went away. At discharge they put him baby aspirin, 81mg enteric coated aspirin once daily, and gave him a tentative diagnosis of transient ischemic attack (TIA). This further resulted to being hospitalized for 3 days but his physicians were not able to see anything significant on his MRI, 72 hours EEGs and telemetry tests (everything was normal). However, during his out-patient visit, his physician mentioned that he had 1 significant episode of asymptomatic Supraventricular tachycardia that may be causing the seizure (inconclusive). They further specified to him that it was not much of a tonic clonic seizure. He also verified that he only had 1 episode of the mentioned event, no other side effects experience and been feeling fine since then. After discharge he had a work up on the outside including a 72 hour EEG; 72 hour holter with the only thing that was abnormal that one run of 3 beat supraventricular tachycardia that was asymptomatic. His doctor put him on Metoprolol 12 mg once daily at night by mouth to help prevent arrhythmias as well as control his blood pressure. He had previously taken lisinopril. He added the only thing he knew that he never had anything like this before in his life. Patient mentions he was at a good weight now as he lost 40 pounds last year for his daughter's wedding. He added sometime in the last 6 to 8 months he had severe left side radiculopathy and was taking small dose of gabapentin. He did not remember if it happened before or after the vaccine but he went to see a pain specialist. The medication worked and he tapered it down and discontinued it. It may have been before the vaccine, he is unsure. But the medication worked like a miracle as he had intractable pain down his leg. All events resulted in emergency room. In line with this, he would like to know in relevance to the news of Pfizer releasing a possible booster dose, if there are any reports of anything that may be related to seizure and/or Transient ischemic attack (TIA) of cardiac origin or a like. Extremely tired was reported as non-serious, other events was serious and caused hospital from 21Mar2021 to 24Mar2021. Outcome shaking episode arms going up and down was recovered on 21Mar2021, of extremely tired was recovered in 2021, of other events was unknown.; Sender's Comments: There is no reasonable possibility that the events supraventricular tachycardia, seizure, tremor, and transient ischemic attack happening 4-6 weeks after vaccination were related to BNT162b2. It is more likely to be complications of pre-existing conditions of hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and diabetes. Advanced age may have been contributory as well. The impact of this report on the benefit/risk profile of the Pfizer product is evaluated as part of Pfizer procedures for safety evaluation, including the review and analysis of aggregate data for adverse events. Any safety concern identified as part of this review, as well as any appropriate action in response, will be promptly notified to regulatory authorities, Ethics Committees, and Investigators, as appropriate.

Within 2 days of second shot, Patient exhibited extreme fatigue. This continued for the next several weeks culminating with the inability to move which resulted in admission to Hospital the week of 2/22/21. After weeks to stabilize vital systems, a diagnosis of multiple myeloma was obtained. Patient continued to decline until multiple organ failure occurred within 30 days of admission. Death occurred on 3/25/21. It is not clear whether the vaccine potentially caused and/or exacerbated a previously undiagnosed condition (multiple myeloma). However, the proximity of an immune cell related cancer which resulted in rapid decline and death within 60 days of vaccination should be noted in case there are any other previously undiagnosed blood cancers being found in newly vaccinated individuals.

The patient was stabilized and transported to our local hospital and upon arrival, he was effectively comatose with a GCS 3. CT Head notated an extensive subarachnoid and intraventricular hemorrhage most probably related to a bleeding anterior communicating artery aneurysm. Neuro-Interventional Radiologist dictation reads "Hunt Hess 5 Fisher grade 4 extensive subarachnoid hemorrhage with intraventricular hemorrhage and early hydrocephalus secondary to rupture of a known anterior communicating artery aneurysm. Initial ICP after EVD placement noted to be in the 120s now 68 treatment complicated by aneurysm rerupture after admission and increased volume of blood although large volume of hemorrhage was seen on initial scan and no change in the patient's clinical exam on her scale was noted due to this rerupture. Patient's exam and prognosis are poor giving extensor posturing lack of extraocular movements to doll's maneuver and weak pupillary reflex as well as cough and gag.

The medical investigator was contacted regarding the death of this 80 year old man within hours of receiving his first dose of the Pfizer vaccine for COVID-19. Little information is known about the facility and actual vaccination administered at the time of this report. However, patient was reported by his next-of-kin to be an otherwise healthy 80 year old without COVID-19 symptoms. He did have a tobacco smoking history. By postmortem computed tomography scans, patient was found to have evidence of catastrophic complications of cardiovascular disease, with apparent aortic dissection and large blood collections in the left chest cavity as well as the pericardial sac. In my medical opinion, these findings were most consistent with a complication of his underlying cardiovascular disease.

Two right MCA ischemic strokes occurring 3-5 days after each dose of Pfizer vaccine. Both episodes he presented with by waking up with acute left arm weakness, numbness and dysarthria. Both episodes happened a few days after COVID vaccine (Covid #2 was administered 4/27). Previous Right MCA stroke from 4/11 was fully worked up. The etiology of this stroke was cryptogenic. TSH from 4/11 was 2.57 and T4 was 0.69. Hgb A1c on 4/11 was noted to be 5.6%. LDL on 4/11 was noted to be 73. MRI brain 4/11/2021 showed multifocal small acute infarcts in the right cerebral cortical/subcortical and periventricular matter infarcts, favored to be embolic. CTA head and neck from 4/11 showed no evidence of large vessel occlusion. Ultrasound of bilateral lower extremities on 4/12 was negative for DVT. ECHO on 4/12 was positive for PFO with an WF > 55%, mild LVH and no thrombus. He also has an atrial septal aneurysm. Cardiac MRI was negative for thrombus.

headache; minor aches; heart attack; kidneys were compromised; chills; had a cough; muscles were tightening, could hardly walk; lethargic; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer or other non hcp. A 80-years-old male patient received first dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Solution for injection,Batch/Lot number was not reported), via an unspecified route of administration on 14Jan2021 as 1ST DOSE, SINGLE for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included bypass surgery. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. On 16Jan2021, the patient experienced headache, minor aches, had a cough, muscles were tightening, could hardly walk, lethargic, chills and heart attack on an unspecified date. Caller states that on 14Jan2021 she and her husband had the 1st Pfizer vaccine dose. 2nd dose was scheduled on 04Feb2021. Caller reporter that 2 days after the 1st dose, her husband's muscles were tightening, could hardly walk, had a cough, was lethargic, had chills and was c/o having reflux in his chest. Caller stated they had appointments that day with their Internist and their Cardiologist. Both HCPs felt all his symptoms were probably from the vaccine. That night she took him to the ER and he had had a heart attack. They did a cardiac Cath and had one of two stents put in. His kidneys were compromised and the HCP couldn't give the amount of dye needed to add another stent. So he still needs another stent. Also the blood count went down. Caller states her husband had cardiac bypass surgery years ago. The caller also mentioned her son is a surgeon and had bad flu like symptoms after second shot and only had a headache and minor aches after the first dose. She was concerned about her husband as he had a heart attack and if he should get the 2nd dose. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included blood count: went down. Outcome of the events were unknown. Upon follow-up on 16Apr2021: This follow-up is being submitted to notify that the lot/batch number is not available despite the follow-up attempts made. Follow-up attempts have been completed and no further information is expected.

Treatment team COVID-19 Principal problem Chronic anticoagulation Persistent atrial fibrillation (CMS/HCC) COVID-19 Confusion Hypoxemia Hospital Course: In his hospital stay we managed his medical issues as follows; Confusion/Syncope in the setting of COVID-19 infection Chronic atrial fibrillation/sinus node dysfunction Hypertension Prediabetes Patient received first dose of vaccination on 3/16 and afterwards started having muscle aches and body pains, later on found out to be having Covid 19+ test, he might be having Covid infection before vaccination as well and symptoms showed with vaccination. On 3/24 he was found out to be having confusion, family called EMS. They tried to debride patient on his feet and he collapsed for about 10 seconds. He did mention that he usually get dizziness/lightheadedness upon standing from bed. Although patient has a history of A. fib but remained rate controlled during hospital stay, we held his antihypertensives including HCTZ and ARBwhile continued his Eliquis. I believe his syncope was likely due to dehydration with decreased oral intake in the setting of acute illness with COVID-19 symptoms. Before discharge is blood pressure was rising so his ARB were restarted while decision regarding HCTZ will be made by primary care physician. In regard to his COVID-19 infection, initially was started on 2 L of supplemental oxygen but his oxygen demand decreased rapidly and most of the time he remained room air, he was not showing any dyspnea, cough, fever or any other generalized symptoms of Covid 19 infection. He did get plasma and remdesivir while inpatient, decision was made to discharge him on 3/26 as patient was symptom-free. He also had received first dose of vaccination. I believe that he would need further remdesivir. We will continue him on steroids for now after completion of dexamethasone for next 8 days he can recent resume his home medication of prednisone.

Patient was started on a heparin drip and then switched to enoxaparin 1 mg/kg every 12 hours per pulmonary. Hematology/Oncology was consulted and determined that acute bilateral PE likely provoked by recent vaccination with the second dose of the Pfizer vaccine. Patient was switched to rivaroxaban 20 mg daily prior to discharge for planned duration of 3 months.

coughing; Pulmonary embolism/ respiratory impairment; Sinus infection; Was cold and so cold to the touch/ couldn't get warm; tired; Didn't feel good; just wanted to stay down and didn't want to get up/ just couldn't wake up; eat very little and he didn't like to eat; color was off, looked grey; Pressure in lower stomach; Lost weight; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient's wife). An 80-year-old male patient of unspecified age and gender received the first/second dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, batch/lot number and expiration date unknown) via intramuscular at left arm on 02Feb2021 10:00 (80-year-old at time of vaccination), at single dose, for COVID-19 immunisation. The patient's medical history included Stents from 2005 (a stent placed in 2005; a heart attack in 2017 and additional 5 stents were placed in 2017; a stent placed in his neck in Nov2019); Heart attack from 2017; Reaction to contrast dye from 2005 (has a reaction to the dye that they use for stents; had a stent placed in 2005 and had a reaction to the dye then; a mild heart attack in 2017 and did stents; once again had a reaction to the contrast dye); Sensitivity to bug bites (When the patient got big bites, you would think someone had beat him he had so many knots; the last few years the patient's reaction to bug bites got much worse); High blood pressure. Additional information for other conditions: The patient was very highly allergic or has a reaction to the dye that they use for stents. The patient had some heart stents and he had bad reactions to the contrast used. The patient was allergic to different things. The patient couldn't take codeine. When the patient got big bites, you would think someone had beat him he had so many knots. Reaction to contrast dye: the patient's physicians then wanted to do imaging with contrast dye on the patient's neck. Physician put the patient on a cocktail for 24-48 hours before the stent was placed and the patient still had a reaction. The patient was given a cocktail of Benadryl and 2 other medications that she cannot remember. The patient's reaction to the dye was not as bad as the first 2 but he still had one. The patient had the stent placed in his neck in Nov2019. The patient still had a reaction to the contrast dye, a mild reaction, even with the cocktail. The reaction was enough the patient was told to continue taking the medication afterward. The patient always carried a nitro bottle in his pocked but he never took any of them. They asked how the nitro tablets were and they were powder. They were blessed as far as the patient's heart. Concomitant medications included cetirizine taken for allergy problems; amlodipine taken for high blood pressure for years; acetylsalicylic acid (ASPIRIN) (for the arteries, just to keep the blood thin, the patient began taking aspirin after experiencing side effects from Effient). The patient previously received codeine and experienced sensitivity (Couldn't take codeine, goes way back, 40-50 years). The patient previously received prasugrel hydrochloride (EFFIENT) from 2017 and experienced shortness of breath (The patient was put on Effient after his stent placement in 2017. Doctor took the patient off of Effient and instructed him to just take aspirin because the patient was showing side effects of shortness of breath and different things. Doctor informed the patient that he would rather the patient just take Aspirin than have the side effects from Effient). The patient previously received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, batch/lot number and expiration date unknown) at left arm on 12Jan2021 (80-year-old at time of vaccination) for COVID-19 immunisation and experienced "so excited" (the patient was so excited after the first shot of the COVID-19 vaccine). The patient previously received tetanus vaccine toxoid (TETANUS) shot for immunisation (20 years ago at least) and experienced "Couldn't move arm, arm swelled and turned red and was messed up for a while". Prior vaccinations within 4 weeks was none. Patient's wife reported that she and her husband (the patient) took the COVID-19 vaccines on 12Jan2021 and 02Feb2021. After his second dose, the patient kept telling her that he didn't feel good and that he was tired (from 03Feb2021). The patient just did not feel good. The patient was cold and so cold to the touch (from 03Feb2021). On 03Feb2021, he was dragging. The patient just wanted to stay down and didn't want to get up. She asked the patient if this was going to keep him in the room all day. The patient replied that he just couldn't wake up. The patient was tired and cold and couldn't get warm. The patient lost 30 pounds (in Feb2021) after he got the second dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. The patient walked around holding his pants up. The patient would eat very little and he didn't like to eat. When he was weighed at the doctor on Friday 02Apr2021, he weighed 136 pounds fully clothed. The patient normally weighed 150-160 pounds. The patient had lost a lot of weight. The patient's color was off, stating that one of her friends said the patient looked grey. The patient experienced pressure in lower stomach (in Feb2021). The patient told her that in his lower stomach, he described it as pressure, and the patient thought he was just kind of sore from coughing from the sinus infection. The patient couldn't stand clothes to touch him and would cut holes in his underwear elastic so that it wouldn't press into him. The patient went to the doctor twice from the time he took the second shot of the COVID-19 vaccine to his death (on 04Apr2021). The patient went to the clinic. The clinic thought the patient had a sinus infection (from 27Mar2021) and gave him a shot that would make him feel good. The patient got a shot on 27Mar2021. She wasn't sure what the shot was and she didn't get a print out. They treated the sinus infection with amoxicillin-clavulanate (875mg-125mg, manufacturer is Teun). The amoxicillin hadn't worked well and the patient went back to the clinic a second time on Friday, 02Apr2021. When the patient went to the doctor on 02Apr2021, they were unable to get a register on the finger pulse-ox monitor. The patient's physician did an X-ray (on 02Apr2021) and the X-ray was perfectly fine (normal). Nothing showed up on the X-ray at all. The patient passed away easter Sunday morning (04Apr2021). The cause of death listed on the patient's death certificate is due to consequence or problem of pulmonary embolism (from 04Apr2021), respiratory impairment. The patient did not receive an autopsy. The family didn't feel the need and the staff didn't even ask if the family wanted an autopsy. "When you live to be 80 years old, you're blessed." HCP: The patient's heart doctor did not see the patient on 04Apr2021 before he died. The last time the patient saw the doctor was Dec2020. The wife reported that she is not complaining, the patient made the decision to take the shot, she is just concerned that the patient had something that could help someone else. The wife stated she was not trying to complain at all, she took the COVID-19 vaccine right beside him and had no consequences. She didn't even have a sore arm. The family is just concerned that there is an ingredient in the COVID-19 vaccine or something that could trigger that in them. Yesterday, 23Jun2021, they were showing a lady on TV that was so sick (unable to provide details). "The patient" (unknown to which patient this is referring) got the shot and ended up in the hospital with side effects. The wife reported that's why she wanted to let Pfizer know about her husband. She was just reporting the patient's symptoms and was not wanting to hurt anyone's feelings in the world. She is not blaming the COVID-19 vaccine for the patient's death, and stated that it could have been his heart or more anything. She just felt like she needed to let pfizer know some of the side effects the patient was having that didn't start until after the second COVID-19 shot. The wife unable to provide the NDC number, lot number, or expiry date of the patient's COVID-19 vaccines. She does not have the information but her son does have that if Pfizer wanted to call and talk to him. The adverse events did not require a visit to emergency room; the adverse events requiref a visit to physician office (The patient went to the clinic 27Mar2021 and went back 02Apr2021 for Sinus infection). Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of the event sinus infection and included a shot and amoxicillin-clavulanate. The outcome of the event pulmonary embolism/ respiratory impairment was fatal; outcome of other events was unknown. The patient died on 04Apr2021. No autopsy was done. The cause of death was pulmonary embolism/ respiratory impairment. Information on the lot/batch number has been requested.; Reported Cause(s) of Death: Pulmonary embolism/ respiratory impairment

Patient received his 2nd dose of the Pfizer vaccine at on Monday, February 15. That evening, he experienced visual disturbances with slightly blurred vision. Not thinking anything of it at the time, the vision cleared, and he continued about their evening/week without telling anyone of his visual disturbances. On Sunday, February 21, he experienced additional visual disturbances including double vision and dizziness, and we had him visit a local ER for evaluation. He was discharged with a diagnosis of dehydration and vertigo. No scans were performed. The visual disturbances cleared up the following week and the only persistent symptom was a slight dizziness. An eye exam was performed on Friday, February 26 with no problems found. An MRI was performed on March 3, and he was diagnosed with the below conditions. Impression (3/3/2021) 1. Small acute to subacute infarcts in the left splenium of the corpus callosum and parasagittal left occipital lobe. 2. Trace subarachnoid hemorrhage in the parasagittal left parietal lobe. 3. Mild chronic microvascular ischemic disease. He was admitted to the hospital and remained there until Saturday, March 6. Follow-up scans and testing were performed with no underlying reason for the stroke being determined. Prior to the stroke, he had been a very active individual with osteoarthritis as is only health complaint. He was not on any prescription medication prior to the stroke. While in the hospital, the tests for high blood pressure, high cholesterol (LDL 92 MG/DL), sugar inadequacies (glucose 93 mg/dl, A1C 5.7%), etc. came back without major concerns. His follow-up CT scans also did not reveal the stroke shown on the MRI. No inquiry was made by any of his doctors or hospital staff as to his COVID vaccination status/dates to even consider the connection. Below are the results of the last CT scans: Impression (3/4/2021) 1. Age-related volume loss and white matter disease similar to prior exams. 2. Small infarct seen on MRI are not well seen on CT. 3. No acute intracranial abnormality demonstrated on the CT scan. Impression (3/5/2021) 1. No evidence of acute infarct or intracranial hemorrhage. No significant change. 2. Periventricular white matter disease is likely secondary to chronic small vessel ischemic changes.

After my father received the second COVID vaccination he started complaining of headaches. He had lung cancer, but he was in good condition. Within weeks his health deteriorated and when we bought him for a scan the beginning of March he had two small brain bleeds. The cancer had spread to the brain and he had a mass. They put a shunt in on March 18th because they said he had fluid, and this was the only treatment. Ten days later he was back in the hospital and after a week we had to take him home on hospice. I think the vaccine could of escalated his cancer this rapidly. Especially because he had two brain bleeds.

ER work-up concerning for severe sepsis with acute hypoxic respiratory failure for which he was admitted to the PCU under the hospitalist service. Hospital Course He was treated with dexamethasone and remdesivir but remained hypoxic requiring alternating trials of high flow nasal cannula and BiPAP for which pulmonology was consulted on 5/12.

He was weaned off high flow oxygen 2 days ago and deemed stable for downgrade to MedSurg with telemetry at that time. Since then he has continued to recover well, now requiring 6 L of oxygen with activity and 4 L at all other times. He is anxious to be discharged home and appears medically stable to do so with home health care services, remote patient monitoring and outpatient pulmonology follow-up with PAL as prior to hospitalization. Prior to discharge, all questions were answered and patient and his son expressed understanding, appreciation and agreement with the discharge plan at this time.

Concomitant medication(s) included warfarin sodium (COUMADIN), at 4 mg once daily in the evening 6 days per week, On Fridays he takes 6 mg once in the evening. Patient's wife says her husband had one vaccination, the Pfizer vaccine and a week later her ended up in the hospital. They had to postpone his second dose because he ended up in the hospital but they have the second one coming up on the 14May2021 and she is scared for him to get it, he is adamant he is going to take it. He was taking her to the doctor for a problem she had and he told her he could not go to the bathroom and she was like what, because he has a stoma bag and she looked and it was plugged with a blood clot, he couldn't open it and drain it so she told him to get in the shower and take it off and put a new one on and she was pulling it off, it was full of blood and there was a big huge, like real liver sized clot came out of his stoma bag. She went to get the stoma bag after the thing came off she grabbed it and got it in the bag and took it out. He was taken to the hospital by the paramedics and he spent 3 days in the hospital. He is 83 now but this happened the week before his birthday, he was 82 when they noticed the blood in his stoma bad, he was a week away from 83. She provides his height and says he shrunk he is 5'9" or 5'8". She does not remember the date of the first dose. She says his birthday was 18Apr2021. She thinks he was admitted to the hospital on 12Apr2021 and he got the first dose the week before that. She thinks it was 12Apr2021 that he was admitted because it was just before birthday first dose week prior to that. They never made the connection. She thinks he ended up in the hospital on a Tuesday and she is trying to count from his birthday 18Apr2021, she thinks he got to come home on Thursday, 15Apr2021. She believes he went in on 12Apr2021 and was discharged on 15Apr2021, he was there 3 days. No further information provided. Her husband is not there with her. She does not have his vaccine card to provide NDC lot expiration or dose amount. he may not even have his vaccine card because he has dementia. No further information provided. He hardly takes any mediation He takes Coumadin he takes 1 per day except Fridays he takes 2, she thinks it's 4 mg and he takes 2 at night everyday except Friday he takes 3. she was guessing. She has one there called Atorvastatin that says it is for Lipitor, so that is not it. She sees Glipizide. No further information provided. She says she found the Coumadin, they are 2mg tablets and he takes 2 at night. She says the dose is not written on there because they call him every 3 weeks because he has to have a blood draw. He takes 2 tablets at night 6 days per week. She clarifies he takes 4 mg once daily in the evening 6 days per week and on Friday he takes 6 mg once in the evening. They just got report for that and it was 1.8 which is a little bit low but he lost blood and had to have a transfusion while in the hospital. It is in a white plastic bottle they got it from (Name).

On 12/31/20, patient was reported to be febrile with increased lethargy and UTI was suspected so patient received a dose of ceftriaxone and levofloxacin. Within 30 minutes he became wheezy and short of breath, developed hives and tongue swelling. He required intubation and admission for treatment of acute respiratory failure, acute kidney injury and significant lactic acidosis. Treatment included epinephrine, H1 and H2 blockers, and steroids. He recovered and was extubated on 1/3/21 and discharged back to the facility on 1/6/21. Attending physician noted that antibiotics were most likely contributor to event, but recommended that patient not receive the 2nd COVID vaccine dose. Patient was referred to an allergist to assess this event, with an outpatient visit on 1/14/21. Patient expressed interest in receiving the 2nd dose. Allergist determined that the antibiotics were the cause of anaphylaxis, and recommended skin testing to take place 6 weeks after his reaction. Allergist determined the reaction was not due to the COVID vaccine and advised patient that he could receive the 2nd dose. Patient received the 2nd dose of the Pfizer COVID vaccine on 1/9/21 (time not known). Notes from the facility indicate patient was lethargic and running a fever the morning of 1/20/21. At 1500 on 1/20/21 patient was noted to be lying supine in bed, visiting with aides.

Immune thrombocytopenic purpura; ITP; acute bleeding and thrombocytopenia; uncontrollable bleeding that did not stop; This is a spontaneous report from a Pfizer-sponsored. A contactable physician (anesthesiologist) reported that an 83-year-old male patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE; Lot Number and Expiration Date were not reported), via an unspecified route of administration, on 25Mar2021, at a single dose, for COVID-19 immunization. The patient's medical history and concomitant medications were not reported. On 27Mar2021, the patient developed immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) after getting or receiving the COVID-19 vaccine. The physician would like to know the protocol of that. The patient got his vaccination, on Thursday before the reporting (25Mar2021). And the patient was admitted to the hospital 48 hours later on Saturday (27Mar2021) with acute bleeding and thrombocytopenia. The patient went to the hospital with uncontrollable bleeding that did not stop. The physician was interested if the company had any internal protocol for treatment of ITP occurring acute onset after the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine. The physician was trying to get some information to help some rheumatologist who can't seem to be finding things on the information on treating this. The physician was not here to blame anybody for it and from what he/she read, there are like 150 cases around the world with thrombocytopenia after the COVID-19 vaccine from totally different manufacturers (further clarification unknown). The physician had read a many couple case reports of different individual, people have tried for that but he/she was just interested if the company had any inhouse information for the treatment protocols for acute thrombocytopenia after the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccination. The outcome of the event was unknown. Information about lot number and expiration date for the suspect product will be requested in follow-up attempts.; Sender's Comments: Based on the information provided and temporal association, a possible causal relationship cannot be excluded between the suspect product BNT162B2 and the reported event Immune thrombocytopenic purpura. The impact of this report on the benefit/risk profile of the Pfizer product is evaluated as part of Pfizer procedures for safety evaluation, including the review and analysis of aggregate data for adverse events. Any safety concern identified as part of this review, as well as any appropriate action in response, will be promptly notified.

A FIb kicked in/A Fib again; Meniere's attack/light headed and get winded very easily; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient and his spouse). An 83-year-old male patient received the 2nd dose of bnt162b2 (BNT162B2), intramuscular administered on arm left on 08Feb2021 08:00 (Batch/Lot Number: EL9269; Expiration Date: 02Feb2021) as SINGLE DOSE for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included ongoing atrial fibrillation (AFib) and he had maybe once or twice a week but never felt it (before Pfizer shot), ongoing hypertension, and Meniere's disease which had attacks several times a year and since he lost his hearing in his right ear the attacks were minor (he felt a little nauseous, similar to having a minor hang over and with a louder than normal ringing in his right ear -tinnitus). Concomitant medications included apixaban (ELIQUIS) taken for atrial fibrillation from 2016 (reported as 5 years ago) and ongoing; and hydrochlorothiazide (HYDROCHLOROTHIAZIDE) taken for hypertension from 2011 (reported as 10 years ago) and ongoing. Patient was not diagnosed with COVID-19 prior to vaccination nor tested for COVID-19 since the vaccination. The patient didn't receive any other vaccines within 4 weeks prior to the COVID vaccine. Before the shots, he had an AFib attack maybe once or twice a week never felt it. He mentioned that the only way he knew he had it was using his fitness watch and take his pulse before several times a day (unknown results) and before he exercise (he will not exercise if he was in Afib but it always went away overnight). His doctor recommends staying hydrated and will see a cardiologist if it does not stabilize. After his first vaccine shot on 21Jan2021 06:45 (Batch/Lot Number: EK9231) intramuscular administered on arm left and while he was at his car, the was in Afib which lasted for 5 days (26Jan2021) which was unprecedented. After about five days, his pulse stabilized and was back to normal having AFib again maybe only once a week (AER 2021194945). Then, the patient received the 2nd dose on 08Feb2021. By 08:45, the patient was in AFib again for five days (13Feb2021) when it cleared but then it came back almost immediately for another two days and he was not back to normal even after 7 days. The patient also had Meniere's attack the same time (08Feb2021 08:45) with the Afib he had. He was little lightheaded and get winded very easily during that time and recovered by 13Feb2021 (same time with the Afib). The event of Afib noted on 08Feb2021 was persistent/Significant disability/Incapacity and did not received any treatment. No follow up attempts are needed. No further information is expected.

Uncomplicated alcohol dependence (HCC) 05/05/2021 Yes Resolved Hospital Problems No resolved problems to display. CONSULTS: None INPATIENT PROCEDURES: None DETAILS OF HOSPITAL STAY: PRESENTING PROBLEM: Patient is a 83 y.o. male with Hx of HTN who presents today with complaint of right sided flank pain, with radiations into the right side of his back and right side of his chest. The pain is worse with movement and deep inspiration. He denies palpitations and shortness of breath. He has no previous HX of VTE. He denies fever, chills, cough, nasal congestion, and sore throat. He denies abdominal pain, N/V, and changes in bowel movements. The patient is a limited historian. He is oriented x4 on admission, but states that he has had difficulty with his memory over the past 2-3 years. He lives alone in an apartment. In the emergency department the patient's vital signs were stable. Labs revealed a potassium of 3.3. AST was 52 and ALT 61. White blood cell count was 11.13. Troponin was negative and BNP was within normal limits. Lactic acid was 1.5. UA showed trace blood. EKG showed normal sinus rhythm with PACs. CTA the thorax abdomen and pelvis showed acute pulmonary emboli involving the segmental subsegmental arteries of the upper and lower lobes. There is no evidence of heart strain. He was admitted for observation due to severe pain, and was given IV fentanyl. Echocardiogram showed: The left ventricular ejection fraction is 67%. No regional wall motion abnormalities noted. The right ventricular size, thickness, and function are normal. The estimated right ventricular systolic pressure is 36 mmHg. The inferior vena cava was not visualized during the exam. There is no comparison study available. He was started on Eliquis 10 mg bid for 7 days, than 5 mg bid for total of 3 months. He should follow up with PCP in 1 week and should check CBC and BMP on 5/10/21. He should also follow up with pulmonologist in 2-3 months. He had Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine on 2/18/21 and 3/18/21. There is remote possibility that this PE could be related to COVID-19 vaccine, so this was reported to Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS). He had mild hypokalemia due to HCTZ, and required K-dur supplement. HCTZ was switched to Maxzide 25/37.5 mg daily. Rechecked K was normal 3.9. BMP should be checked in 1 week. Also he is drinking little bit too much alcohol, 4 alcoholic drinks every night. He was instructed to cut alcohol drinking to </=2 alcoholic drink a day. His daughter was updated over the phone.

Heart stopped; Could not swallow; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable nurse (patient's wife). An 85-year-old male patient received the first dose of the bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 MRNA VACCINE), via an unspecified route of administration on 21Jan2021 at a single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included blood pressure abnormal (verbatim: blood pressure) from an unknown date and unknown if ongoing, neuropathy from an unknown date and unknown if ongoing, weight issue from an unknown date and unknown if ongoing, diabetes from an unknown date and unknown if ongoing, walker user from an unknown date and unknown if ongoing. Concomitant medications included insulin aspart (NOVOLOG) taken for diabetes from an unspecified date to an unspecified date; and he was taking a long acting one as well. The patient previously received the influenza vaccine (MANUFACTURER UNKNOWN) for immunization on unknown dates ("had flu shots before with no reactions and everything, nothing before"). On 24Jan2021, the patient's heart stopped (death, medically significant), and could not swallow (medically significant). The clinical course was reported as follows: The patient's wife stated the patient was taking insulin aspart (NOVOLOG) and he was taking a long acting one as well. The reporter, the patient's wife and a retired registered nurse (RN) stated, her husband (patient) just died and she thought he died from the COVID vaccine (later clarified the reason of death was-heart stopped). The patient had the vaccine on 21Jan2021, which was on a Thursday, and he was fine. On the following Sunday around 1:30 (on 24Jan2021), the patient was feeling a little weak, however, the patient's wife thought maybe his blood sugar was low. The patient's wife checked, and the patient's blood sugar was 91. The patient's wife went to get some yogurt to feed him in order to get his blood sugar up a little; "which was a normal thing for him, it was not that low for him." Then, suddenly, the patient fell, and the patient's wife could not get a pulse or anything. The patient's wife called an unspecified number and she started compressions; however, he was dead. The patient's wife stated the patient just had his heart test, a three hour long one, and it was "perfect three weeks ago." The patient had just gone to the doctor the other day and his blood pressure was "fine and everything." The patient's wife stated that other than his diabetes, "which he had for (sentence incomplete)." Regarding lab tests, the patient's wife stated, "No, he had it before but not in the last two weeks. He was going for one because we just went to the doctor last week and he was going to call yesterday to make the appointment request to get his blood work done. Blood work has been good except his A1C was always high, but other than that everything was good" (as reported). Regarding causality, the patient's wife stated, "I do, because he was fine until about half an hour before he died. He said to me, I feel a little weak today and then I was talking to him that your upper body strength is really good and then I said, we just have to work on your weight a little more because he did have neuropathy. And then, I went out of the room and all of a sudden I just heard him fall and that is when I just went in to check his blood sugar and it was 91 and I got him yogurt and he started eating that and then that was it, he started spitting it out and he said, I could not swallow and that was it, he just died." The patient's wife further added, "I just wanted other people to know that things like this happen and I am sure it was from that because he was healthy as could be. He was walking with his walker, the day before outside and he felt fine." The clinical outcome of the event, heart stopped, was fatal. The clinical outcome of the event, could not swallow, was unknown. The patient died on 24Jan2021 due to "heart stopped." An autopsy was not performed. The batch/lot numbers for the vaccine, PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 MRNA VACCINE, were not provided and will be requested during follow up.; Reported Cause(s) of Death: Heart stopped

No adverse effects for the first two weeks. The morning of 2/7/21 he claimed he was not able to sleep the night before. He was cold, but only wanted something cold to drink. He was not able to get through his normal morning routine. By 8 am we was beginning to get confused and weaker. By 9 am he vomited and was not able to stand up or walk. The confusion was increasing. We called 911. When they arrived he had chills and was agitated. He did not have a fever at that time. He was transported to the emergency room. We were not able to accompany him there, but were told he was confused, agitated and combatant. His fever was up to 101 degrees. The started him on antibiotics and began tests. He tested negative for COVID and the flu. By that evening they diagnosed him with viral meningitis and admitted him to the hospital. The next day we were told that they had ruled out viral meningitis as well as other infections. The infectious disease doctor said that all tests had come back negative, but they were continuing to give him antibiotics. A neurologist and cardiologist were called in and they were not able to find anything either. He did complain of chest pains, but it was determined that it might be heart burn. They did see a sign of Afib, but test were not conclusive. On Friday, Feb. 12th he was sent home with antibiotics and heart medicines. The confusion has improved, but he is very weak and not mobile without assistance.

85 year old male who presents with 2 episodes loose black stools, weakness, decreased appetite, increased lethargy and subjective fever today, 02/22. Again admitted and had further rheumatological and infectious work up with negative results He was initially admitted to Hospital on 02/12 with fatigue, atypical chest pain, melena. He had received 2nd dose of Pfizer vaccine on 02/10. He was hospitalized from 02/12-02/15 and thought to have viral pericarditis. Diagnosis at discharge: SIRS DUE TO NONINFECTIOUS PROCESS W ACUTE ORGAN DYSFUNCTION. He was started on celebrex in addition to the the colchicine as an anti-inflammatory. After initiation of the anti inflammatory medications, patient's fever resolved, he started feeling better and his inflammatory markers decreased. He was monitored for another days and was feeling better. He is therefore being discharged home. In view of the negative work up, there is suspicion that these may be a hyper inflammatory response to the COVID vaccine since his symptoms were temporally related.

My father received his first Pfizer vaccine on 02/03/21. On 2/12/21 I rushed him to the ER. He was vomiting uncontrollably and had shortness of breath. Once arrived at ER, they immediately put him on oxygen. Vomiting lasted several hours. They tested him for Covid and did a chest x-ray. Tested positive for Covid. Chest x-ray showed Covid pneumonia. Was admitted. Stayed in hospital for 5 days and was then released to nursing home for physical and occupational therapy. He was very weak and on days experienced what they called Covid fog. After 2 weeks of therapy, he was released on 03/06/21 to go back home to his apartment, with extended visiting nurse therapy. On 3/10/21, was the first visiting nurse appointment. At 12:00 an RN came to his apartment from Home Health Care. She checked his vitals. She said his blood pressure was good, lungs sounded good and oxygen level was 98. She said he was doing good and that she would not need to continue to come out and check on him weekly. She left. At 2:30 the same day, a Physical Therapist from Home Health Care came. She asked him lots of questions and adjusted my fathers' walker for him. He showed her how he was doing using the walker. Walked approximately 15-20 feet in his apartment. She checked his vitals before she left. His oxygen level was now at 91. She had him take a few deep breathes until his oxygen level was up to 93. She left and said she would be back on Friday the 12th to begin the actual physical therapy then. Within 10 minutes after she left my father started shaking uncontrollably and was having difficulties breathing. I called 911. Paramedics arrived. My fathers' oxygen level was all the way down to 74. They took him to the ER. When getting him out of ambulance he began vomiting. Vomiting lasted for hours just like when he went to the hospital back in February. They tried 3 different drugs to control the nausea. They did EKG, chest and abdomen scans. Was found that he had multiple blood clots and inflammation in his lungs and a bacterial infection in his blood. After testing, bacteria was found to be E Coli. Treated him with heparin for clots and antibiotics for infection and had him on oxygen in nose. Every day thereafter, he felt worse. They switched him to a high flow oxygen mask to keep his oxygen levels up. By Saturday night (early morning Sunday) on 03/14, they had taken the high flow oxygen mask off and hooked him up to a BiPap oxygen machine because his oxygen levels were dropping too low. We were then told by the lung doctor, that the damage to his lungs was extreme and that the next step would be to put him on a ventilator and feeding tube. My father did not want this per his will and his discussion with Dr earlier in the week. Dr indicated that he would not get better just being on the BiPap machine and we then chose to have them take him off of the machine because he did not want to go on life support. My father passed away on Sunday, March 14th around 6:30pm.

Bleed; Hemoglobin and it had dropped to 6.1; 2nd dose- He was extremely exhausted/weariness/tired feeling; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient's wife). An 85-year-old male patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), second dose at the age of 85-years-old via an unspecified route of administration, administered in arm left on 15Mar2021 (Batch/Lot number was not reported) as 2nd dose, single dose for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included ongoing diabetes mellitus, cancer removed from his buttocks (It was either a basal or a squamous and they did not feel it was bad and they had removed it all) on an unspecified date, he has had a stent put in on an unknown date, Had surgery for a valve replacement on an unknown date, heart disorder (He is on a lot of medications) from an unknown date and unknown if ongoing. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. The patient received the first dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE) at the age of 85-years-old on 24Feb2021 and experienced he was tired a little bit. After the second dose on 15Mar2021 her husband and her were extremely exhausted, not sleepy, just tired. They were told to expect that though. He was extremely exhausted and this began soon after the COVID vaccine fairly early in the day. Her and her husband came home soon afterwards and looked at each other and said that they were tired and it was not sleepiness, it was not like they needed a nap. It was profound tiredness and exhaustion. Her husband had it more so but they were both in bed for a couple hours. Neither had pain in the injection site though. This lasted for several hours into the evening. Adds that for her husband 1st dose he did not have any effects basically but for his 2nd dose he did have the weariness, not sleepiness, just a tired feeling for several hours. He was just resting and he was also in the hospital but it was for another event not because of the COVID vaccine. She says that it was frightening, he went to the doctor for a routine check up he has had a stent put in and had surgery for a valve replacement at the beginning of the year and also he has had a cancer removed from his buttocks at the beginning of the year. But during his regular check in they did his hemoglobin and it had dropped to 6.1 on 20May2021, and the doctor said that they were going to call an ambulance and her husband said he was going to drive to the hospital since he was only 2 to 3 minutes from there. They admitted him and he was in for 3 days. They can not find the bleed site and they did an endoscopy and they are waiting for him to have an outpatient colonoscopy. They can not figure out the bleed and where it is coming from. He is currently been resting but it is frightening because it was out of the blue. Caller confirms that the stent, cancer and the valve replacement were all prior to the COVID vaccine. The patient was hospitalized for hemoglobin and it had dropped to 6.1 (haemoglobin decreased) and bleed from 20May2021 to 22May2021. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included endoscopy: unknown results on May2021, haemoglobin: 6.1 on 20May2021.

The weeks following vaccination, the patient felt lethargic, dizzy, unstable on his feet. Mental cognitive ability was unchanged, and he seemed to still be sharp. Up until the day of death, the patient was still active, able to drive, speak, make jokes, eat, and do everything normally. The morning of death, he had a bad fall, but couldn't recall what happened. It's assumed that a low blood pressure event, syncope, partial aneurysm, something of that nature causing temporary loss of consciousness occurred. We attended a funeral that afternoon, ate lunch, and dropped him off at his home. Sometime during that evening, he fell and died. The cause is unknown and still "undetermined" on the death certificate. (Heart attack or brain aneurysm is what I'm guessing)

On Sunday afternoon, March 14, I received the first dose of the Pfizer vaccination. On the morning of March 16 I had a sudden hit of fatigued and my left leg started going numb while doing some menial work in the yard, The numbness cleared when I went inside and laid down but some form of the fatigue persisted for several days. Then, on March 28, two weeks after the vaccine, I woke up to a leg severely swollen from toe to hip. I waited two days to see if it went down but it only got worse, swelling to double the size by volume. I went to the doctor and they sent me to the hospital for ultrasound, suspecting a blood clot. No blood clot was evident but there were multi swollen limp nodes in the upper leg area. The problem worsened and two days later I was sent in for a CTscan which now showed multi blood clots near the swollen limp nodes. I was barely able to walk as major pain persisted with no signs of decline. I am now on blood thinner. It has been 2 months since the vacination and my leg is still swollen the same amount (2X by volume).

The events resulted in emergency room/department or urgent care, hospitalization, and patient died. No follow-up attempts are possible, information about batch number cannot be obtained. No further information is expected.; Sender's Comments: The Company cannot completely exclude the possible causality between the reported COVID post vaccination and respiratory failure with fatal outcome, and the administration of COVID 19 vaccine, BNT162B2, based on the reasonable temporal association. More information on the underlying medical condition in this 89-year-old male patient is required for the Company to make a more meaningful causality assessment. The impact of this report on the benefit/risk profile of the Pfizer product is evaluated as part of Pfizer procedures for safety evaluation, including the review and analysis of aggregate data for adverse events.

He died around 5 o clock; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient's wife). An 89-year-old male patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, solution for injection), via an unspecified route of administration on 12Mar2021 13:00 at a single dose (lot number was reported as NEEU200, the reporter did not know if its 2 or Z) for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history allergic to Penicillin, has a long list of allergies, neck pain and sleep disorder (sleep aid). Concomitant medications included diphenhydramine hydrochloride (BENADRYL), clopidogrel bisulfate, calcitriol, melatonin (MELATONIN) taken for sleep aid, Phillips Laxative tablet Magnesium (not appropriately paraphrased and clarified, as reported), simvastatin, terazosin hydrochloride, tizanidine hydrochloride (TIZANIDINE HCL) for when he had the pain in neck (he didn't take that hardly ever), vitamin C [ascorbic acid] and Multivitamin one a day. On Friday 12Mar2021, the reporter and the patient went to get the Covid shot. Their appointment was at 12:30 but they were in line long time before they got the shot. They got the shot around 13:00 and then they have to wait 15 minutes before they could leave. They drove up, they were ready to shoot us with the needle and they asked the patient, asked was he allergic to anything and the reporter answered for him and said yes, Penicillin and other long list and then they gave him the shot. They never did go over his allergies. They got home about 13:30, so which would take us about that long to get home. The patient died around 5 o clock and the reporter didn't know if this was connected or not with his death. The patient died on 12Mar2021. It was not reported if an autopsy was performed. Information on the lot/batch number has been requested.; Sender's Comments: This case of death was provided with minimal details and autopsy results not available. However, drug causality cannot be completely excluded for BNT162B2 injection, only due to plausible chronological relation. Otherwise, information received was so limited to prevent a thorough medical assessment for patient death. The impact of this report on the benefit/risk profile of the Pfizer drugs is evaluated as part of Pfizer procedures for safety evaluation, including the review and analysis of aggregate data for adverse events. Any safety concern identified as part of this review, as well as any appropriate action in response, will be promptly notified to Regulatory Authorities, Ethics Committees and Investigators, as appropriate.; Reported Cause(s) of Death: He died around 5 o clock
