The government of taiwan will indemnify with 3.5 million New Taiwan dollars ($114,100) to the family of a girl who died days after receiving the second dose of the vaccine against covid-19.

This is not the first time something like this has happened in Taiwan, there are ten cases in a list published by the Taiwan Ministry of Health detailing the beneficiaries of compensation for having suffered adverse reactions after being vaccinated against a disease.

The largest of the compensations is the one that the family of the girl who died after being vaccinated against covid will receive. The minor was in the range of 5 to 11 years and she went into a coma three days after receiving the second dose of the vaccine Pfizer.

The girl suffered afulminant myocarditis”, said the spokesman for the Island’s Epidemic Center, Lo Yi-chun, who specified that this pathology is usually caused by a viral infectionso it is unlikely that it was due to the vaccine he had received, as it was an mRNA type (known as messenger RNA).

However, not the possibility of vaccination cannot be excluded, due to the short time elapsed between the inoculation and the death of the little one. (YO)
