The federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) publicly confirmed Friday that it is investigating the death of a 13-year-old boy who died after receiving a COVID-19 vaccine.
The “CDC is aware of a 13-year-old boy in Michigan who died after receiving a COVID-19 vaccination,” agency spokeswoman Jade Fulce told the Detroit News. “This case is currently under investigation and until the investigation is complete, it is premature to assign a specific cause of death.”
