A 26-year-old trainee doctor died of hemorrhage within 10 days of having received the AstraZeneca vaccine, the French Loire local health authority said at a press conference on March 23. But Yves-Marie Vandamme, M.D., of the Department of Infectious and Tropical Diseases at the University Hospital of Angers, said that his death could not be linked to the AstraZeneca vaccination until the results of the death were known.
The news was first reported by the local French newspaper Ouest-France. The intern, who had been studying Medicine for six years, had received the AstraZeneca New Crown vaccine on March 8. It was March 18 when his Family called the police, as they had no way to contact him for several days.
When emergency vehicles arrived at the place where the Nantes intern lived, they found him dead in his Home. Still according to the Journal du Sud-Ouest: after a preliminary judgment, the young doctor probably died because of an internal appearance. The local health authority of Loire and the judiciary launched separate investigations into his death.
The local newspaper “Ouest” said: the regional health office did not provide additional information on whether the student was the victim of a blood clot. Pierre Sennès, prosecutor of the Republic of Nantes, said on the 23rd: “Further analysis seems necessary to determine the cause and circumstances of the death. For the moment, it is necessary to wait for the conclusions of these specialized investigations before determining the cause of his death”.
Professor Regis Josien, director of the Laboratory of Immunology at the University Hospital of Nantes, explained, “We know that when there is a global vaccine program, pharmacovigilance data will necessarily show a correlation (between vaccination and suspicious deaths), but we do not have this causal relationship.”
Not necessarily related to AstraZeneca vaccination, said Yves-Marie Vandamm, a hospitalist in the department of infection and tropical diseases at the University Hospital of Angers. He said, “Intracardiac thrombosis in the aorta or elsewhere occurs, and hospitals have the same cases every day. And they are not vaccinated.”
“Our first thought is for his family,” Dr. Vendome told the local health authority.” At this stage, after this young man received the AstraZeneca vaccine on March 8, we have not been able to establish a direct link between the vaccine and his death. ”
