A twelve-year-old died in the Cuxhaven district after his second Corona vaccination. Now the autopsy result is certain. Accordingly, a previous illness was largely responsible for the death of the young person.
According to the final autopsy report, the vaccination against the corona virus is not the only cause of the death of a 12-year-old boy in the Cuxhaven district. According to a statement by the Paul Ehrlich Institute (PEI), the child had “a particularly serious, vaccine-independent pre-existing heart disease”, announced the district of Cuxhaven (last paragraph, editor’s note). “Taking into account the extensive medical findings, the vaccination is not to be seen as the sole cause of the fatal outcome,” the statement said.
The child died two days after the second vaccination. “Even if the final assessment of the autopsy result of the child is now available, the tragic loss of your child remains for the family and relatives, which is infinitely painful and affects us all deeply. Our fullest sympathy belongs to you,” emphasized District Administrator Kai-Uwe Bielefeld (independent ).
Five suspected deaths after corona vaccination
Reported deaths in connection with a corona vaccination in children and adolescents are extremely rare. The PEI lists five such suspected cases in people between 12 and 17 years of age, which refer to a vaccination with the Biontech agent. According to the PEI, at least three of the adolescents had serious previous illnesses. So far, according to the Robert Koch Institute, two million people between 12 and 17 years of age in Germany have been fully vaccinated, which corresponds to 43.9 percent (as of November 15, 2021).
