Health authorities in the United States are investigating the case of a Florida doctor who died from an unusually severe blood disorder 16 days after receiving the Pfizer coronavirus vaccine.
According to a report by The New York Times, Dr. Gregory Michael, a 56-year-old obstetrician and gynecologist in Miami Beach, received the vaccine at Mount Sinai Medical Center on the 18th of December and died 16 days later from a brain haemorrhage.
According to Dr Michael’s wife, three days after he got the vaccine, he developed tiny reddish spots, or petechiae, caused by bleeding under the skin of his hands and feet.
Recognizing the spots as a danger sign, he went to the emergency room. A blood test showed the level of his platelets to be at zero, and he was admitted into the intensive care unit with a diagnosis of acute immune thrombocytopenia.
Health authorities in the United States are investigating the case of a Florida doctor who died from an unusually severe blood disorder 16 days after receiving the Pfizer coronavirus vaccine.
According to a report by The New York Times, Dr Gregory Michael, a 56-year-old obstetrician and gynecologist in Miami Beach, received the vaccine at Mount Sinai Medical Center on the 18th of December and died 16 days later from a brain haemorrhage.
Shortly after receiving the vaccine, Dr Michael is said to have developed an extremely serious form of a condition known as acute immune thrombocytopenia which prevented his blood from clotting properly.
In a statement, Pfizer, the maker of the vaccine, said it was “actively investigating” the case, “but we don’t believe at this time that there is any direct connection to the vaccine.”
“There have been no related safety signals identified in our clinical trials, the post-marketing experience thus far,” or with the technology used to make the vaccine, the company said. “Our immediate thoughts are with the bereaved family.”
About nine million people in the United States have received at least one shot of either the Pfizer or Moderna coronavirus vaccine, the two authorized in the United States. So far, serious problems reported were 29 cases of anaphylaxis, a severe allergic reaction. None were reported as fatal. Many people have had other side effects like sore arms, fatigue, headache or fever, which are usually transient.
According to Dr Michael’s wife, three days after he got the vaccine, he developed tiny reddish spots, or petechiae, caused by bleeding under the skin of his hands and feet.
Recognizing the spots as a danger sign, he went to the emergency room. A blood test showed the level of his platelets to be at zero, and he was admitted into the intensive care unit with a diagnosis of acute immune thrombocytopenia.
Dr Michael had “absolutely no medical issues” and no underlying conditions, Ms. Neckelmann, who declined to be interviewed by phone as she made funeral preparations, said in a text message to The New York Times.
“Never had any reaction to any medication nor vaccines.” Her husband, she added, was a healthy, active person who did not smoke or take any medication.
“He was an avid deep sea fisherman and mostly a family man,” she said. “He never got Covid because he used an N95 mask from the beginning of the pandemic. He was adamant in protecting his family and patients.”
He also believed in the promise of the vaccine, she wrote on Facebook.
