The Hong Kong government has denied any causal link between COVID-19 vaccination and 115 reported deaths that occurred within 14 days of receiving a COVID-19 vaccine.
The government released the vaccination surveillance report on June 29, acknowledging that in the week ending June 26, the Hong Kong Department of Health had received 44 reports of vaccinated citizens experiencing abnormal health conditions after receiving a COVID-19 vaccine. Two individuals, a 74-year-old woman and a 60-year-old man, died within 14 days of being vaccinated. However, the report said there was no clinical evidence to prove that the abnormal reactions and deaths were caused by the vaccines.
