California resident dies several hours after receiving COVID-19 vaccine

"Any reports surrounding the cause of death are premature," police said

An individual in California who tested positive for COVID-19 in late December and was vaccinated Thursday died several hours after receiving the shot, the Placer County Sheriff's office announced Saturday.

"There are multiple local, state, and federal agencies actively investigating this case; any reports surrounding the cause of death are premature, pending the outcome of the investigation," the sheriff's office said.

It is unclear if the individual received the Moderna or Pfizer vaccine.

There is some question about Larry King's death related to the vaccine ??

He received the vaccine not long before his death.
 
It's sad when anyone dies but according to the CDC, 17.5 million doses had been administered and more than 2.3 million were people fully vaccinated as of January 21, 2021.
 

Undoubtedly more information will be forthcoming, but this is the full statement from the Placer County Sheriff's Office. It was sent out as a Facebook post:

"Placer County Public Health and the Placer County Sheriff-Coroner Division were recently notified of the death of an individual who tested positive for COVID-19 in late December.

"The individual was administered a COVID-19 vaccine several hours before their death on January 21, 2021. The vaccine was not administered by Placer County Public Health. There are multiple local, state, and federal agencies actively investigating this case; any reports surrounding the cause of death are premature, pending the outcome of the investigation. Our thoughts are with the family of the deceased."

I can't find any information that Larry King received the vaccine, only that he'd recently been hospitalized with COVID.

Ya know, I think that was my mistake ....... I believe it was Hank Aaron that took the vaccine, then shortly after died . See the link.

"Just 2 1/2 weeks before his death Friday at age 86, Aaron joined civil rights icons to receive the COVID-19 vaccine. He wanted to spread the word to the Black community that the shots were safe in the midst of a devastating pandemic. “I feel quite proud of myself for doing something like this,” Aaron said.3 days ago"
 
I've been wondering what happens if somebody already has the virus in their body, but they don't know it because they have no symptoms. Then, they get the vaccine. Would that make the Covid better or worse, or have no effect at all?
 
I'm sure that there will be those who experience an extreme reaction....perhaps even death...to these vaccines. Every one's body/immune system is different, and many may already have life threatening conditions that this vaccine might affect negatively. Heck, just listening to the endless drug commercials on TV shows that nearly every drug out there can kill a person. If these vaccines help the vast majority, that's all we can hope for.

I wanted to see that, too. We're trying to find out if my mom was vaccinated before she passed away. The care home staff told us she tested pos back on Dec 23 but she wasn't adimitted to their covid ward until about mid-Jan and died about a week later, a month after she tested pos.
 
I really take exception to the heading of this topic: California resident dies several hours after receiving COVID-19 vaccine

Really? Come on, now! Putting it that way is designed to induce fear and mistrust, by implying that the vaccine had something to do with the person's death. We don't even know what the cause of death was; the person could have been in a car accident, or committed suicide because they were depressed, or had a heart attack, or was allergic, or plenty of other causes of death.

Millions of people are getting the vaccine. So far, it seems to be extremely safe. If a handful of people die from whatever cause, that proves nothing at all about the safety of the vaccine. And even if a handful die as a result of an allergic reaction, that proves nothing, statistically speaking. People die of allergic reactions to flu shots, shingles shots, measles shots, and even eating peanuts.

With a fatal pandemic raging across the world, we are lucky to have a vaccine that so far, at least, has been extremely safe for nearly everyone, which I find truly remarkable considering the short time they had to develop it. Why continue spreading the kind of garbage that Fox News spews out?

Or, put another way, consider this:

One person dies after receiving Covid vaccine
2,152,381 people die after the coronavirus infects their body
 
As yet, other than time proximity there are no indications that the vaccine was related - or unrelated - to this person's death. When the coroner's findings are completed we should know more.

More likely internal body causes, since the announcement was made by the sheriff's office. If it were an obvious external cause, that would be known by now.

I agree with @Sunny that the mortality statistics are overwhelmingly in favor of the vaccine.

"Why continue spreading the kind of garbage that Fox News spews out?"

Regardless of which news outlets report information about Covid and or the vaccines, or any other topic that I find of interest, I for one will continue to "spread" that information.

It's up to the individual reading that information to determine if its garbage or not.

I posted this article so I'm the one "spreading" it here. So yes, I took your reply personally as it's clear your comment, "Why continue spreading the kind of garbage that Fox News spews out?" Is directed to the person who posted this article. 🙄

You could have simply said you thought the article was garbage, and or Fox news reports garbage.

Yes and it takes so long to determine that. 😞

Usually somewhere around a week, particularly in cases where so much attention is focused. Toxicology reports can take six weeks or more. Plus Placer County's coroner may be as jammed up with bodies as the rest of CA because of the pandemic.
 
Multiple news outlets published it. They pulled it straight off the Placer County Sheriff's Department's Facebook page (I gave the link in post #5 above).

According to the Sacramento Bee, yesterday the sheriff's spokeswoman declined to give the person's age. I find that odd. There's been a lot of push back against the sheriff's department for having connecting the vaccine and the person's death without any investigation.

The thing that is scary to me about someone dying hours after getting the vaccine, is that they have lived through a year of this covid infested world just fine and died trying to fight it through vaccination. :eek:

OK, Becky, I do believe that Fox news largely spouts garbage. If not outright garbage, its news is highly slanted and often unreliable. And much of it is just plain garbage.

And just to be fair about this, I watch some of the other news channels, which are slanted in the other direction. I don't always believe everything they say either.

As far as the article being "garbage," while it didn't state any outright lies as far as I know, it didn't really tell us anything new either. Apparently a woman died after receiving the vaccine. Cause of death unknown. The police said any reports about the cause of death were premature. Why is this even a news story? You might as well say a woman died a few hours after stubbing her toe.

I do wonder about giving the vaccine to a patient who already was positive for Covid-19. What is the purpose of doing that?

My objection is to using this non-story as a scare-inducing headline. I really think, considering the deadliness of this virus, that people should be encouraged to do all they can to stay alive and healthy, not scared away by tabloid journalism.

I agree this article didn't give information needed to know if it was or wasn't due to the vaccine. That information will come later.

I don't believe that anyone has the right to withhold information regarding Covid or the vaccine due to possibly scaring anyone.

What right do I have, or you, or anyone to decide for others what information they should or should not read?

You think articles like this will cause some to refuse getting the vaccine. So therefore don't post them.

Isn't that trying to persuade others into getting the vaccine because you believe it's the only right thing to do?

By omitting the negative and only posting the positive is taking away the right of others to be fully informed in order to make their own decisions.

I'm not trying to persuade anyone into not getting the vaccine, I plan on getting it when I feel it's safe to.

I think as adults we have no need for censorship as to what we should read, scary or not.

Apparently it has no effect.

18 vaccinated prisoners at Sharon Prison test positive for COVID-19

After testing prisoners for coronavirus at the Sharon Prison, 18 prisoners were found to have the virus, the Prison Service announced Wednesday evening.

All prisoners who tested positive are in good condition, the statement noted, and have shown no symptoms.

The Prison Service said that all of the prisoners in question received vaccinations last week and have been isolated according to Health Ministry guidelines.

The article doesn't give a time line for when they probably got the virus. In other words, did they have it already when they received the vaccine, or did they all get Covid afterwards, which would mean the vaccine is pretty much useless? That is a very important distinction.

As far as "what right do I have," etc. etc., of course I have no right to tell anyone else what to read, or what to believe. And neither do you.

But we all have the right to comment on what is being written in these forums. If a headline is written in such as way as to induce fear and avoidance in people, based on absolutely nothing (a woman died, but they don't know the cause?) then it is irresponsible journalism, and equally irresponsible to repeat it.

There are people naive enough to believe every rumor they hear. Fortunately, they seem to be in the minority, at least on this subject. When I went to the hospital last week to receive my shot, the parking lot was overflowing with literally hundreds of people who were waiting to get in. And this was WITH an appointment! They were running 2 hours behind, and I got there an hour early, which meant I waited a total of 3 hours to get in. People in this area, at least, are clearly looking out for their own interests and are very happy to receive any health care available.

And there are also people who believe everything they are told by "Professionals" who have ulterior motives.
 
"did they have it already when they received the vaccine, or did they all get Covid afterwards, which would mean the vaccine is pretty much useless? "

Considering how many people have been vaccinated already, and some having their second shot, there haven't been reports so far of them getting Covid so I doubt the vaccine is useless.

"People in this area, at least, are clearly looking out for their own interests and are very happy to receive any health care available."

Same in my area, I'm sure it's the same in everyone's area.

"(a woman died, but they don't know the cause?) then it is irresponsible journalism, and equally irresponsible to repeat it."
