New Zealand man, 26, dies from myocarditis - inflammation of the heart - tied to Pfizer vaccine, health officials say
Daily Mail ^ | 12/20/21 | Mansur Shaheen

A 26-year-old New Zealand man's death is being attributed to the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine.

The man, who is unnamed in a report by local health officials, died of myocarditis earlier this year and did not seek out medical treatment for his condition.

After an investigation, officials determined that his death was caused by the vaccine, at least the second death caused by the jab in the country, with other potential deaths occurring overseas.

The Covid vaccines have been deemed safe and effective by health officials in the U.S., UK, New Zealand and across the world. The risk of myocarditis has long been known, but experts believe it is minimal, and the upsides of the vaccine make it worth it.

'With the current available information, the board has considered that the myocarditis was probably due to vaccination in this individual,' a COVID-19 Vaccine Independent Safety Monitoring Board said in a statement.

The man's death occurred within two weeks of his first dose, and it was not reported that he had received a second dose.

A Pfizer spokesperson said the company was aware of the report of the death in New Zealand, it monitored all reports of possible adverse events, and continued to believe the benefit-risk profile for its vaccine was positive.

New Zealand's vaccine safety board also said another two people, including a 13-year-old, had died with possible myocarditis after taking their vaccinations.

More details were needed before linking the child's death to the vaccine, while the death of a man in his 60s was unlikely related to the vaccine, it said.

At 26, the man was at the age most at risk to suffer from heart inflammation as a result of the vaccine.

Sorry... A story I posted earlier might've been from a restricted news source.

After posting it, I left. I just returned, and the story is gone.

Here's the story from a different news source.

It happened within 2 weeks so isn’t it deemed that he was un-vaccinated and also where is the word “rare” - they always use that word to describe every time someone keels over from the vaccine.

The first ninety days of Pfizer vaccine data shows 1223 deaths but they say you can’t prove a link. All the falsehoods the media report as gospel without proof - Trump colluded with Russia, the Biden laptop is Russian disinformation, COVID has a natural origin and the idea that it came from a lab is a conspiracy theory, Jussie Smollett was attacked by racist Trump supporters, Kyle Rittenhouse is a white supremacist - but only vaccine skeptics have to prove their case before the media will do their jobs and report.

Maybe the man had the coxsackievirus. Was he a homosexual?

Yes, exactly. A number of news agencies around the world have picked up the story on this man’s tragic death as if it’s extremely rare.

But nothing is made of the deaths of these men:

I think the source I used originally was on the Copyright List.

Because the article was shared on MSN, I mistakenly believed it would be OK to post.

500,000,000 shots and one death.

NO, that is pure BS and you know it.

a total of 3,362 people apparently died after getting the COVID vaccines in the United States. (published May 6th)

Thats because NZ have continually hidden their true numbers of both the virus and the adverse reactions to the jab ...

If its so good there why the continual lockdowns and closed borders ???
