A third person has died in Japan after receiving a shot from the since suspended batches of Moderna vaccines, the country’s health ministry said on Monday.
It marks the third such case following the discovery of contaminants in several batches of Moderna COVID-19 vaccines in the country. The 49-year-old received his second dose on Aug. 11 and died the next day, the health ministry said, noting that his only known health issue was a buckwheat allergy.
