On Sunday, Piedmont’s regional government suspended the use of a vaccine batch, and prosecutors the next day said it was important to seize doses to ensure the vaccine “does not lead to further consequences.”
“It is therefore important to ensure that continued administration of the drug throughout the country does not lead to further consequences [harmful or fatal]...until we are completely sure that [Tognatti’s] death cannot be attributed to the above-mentioned inoculation,” prosecutor Teresa Angela Camelio said in a statement, according to Reuters.
The teacher received his vaccine in his hometown of Biella on Saturday afternoon and went to bed that night with a high fever, his wife told Italian media. The next morning, an ambulance was called after his condition worsened, but he died shortly after, the New York Post reported.
Prosecutors opened the probe into his death later that day and are investigating it as a possible manslaughter, according to the newspaper.
