NORWAY, January 18, 2021 (LifeSiteNews) — The Norwegian Medicines Agency (NMA) reported on Friday that as of January 14, twenty-three people have died within days of receiving the first dose of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine, 13 of whom were nursing home patients.
“Common adverse reactions to mRNA vaccines, such as fever and nausea, may have contributed to a fatal outcome in some frail patients,” said Sigurd Hortemo, chief physician at NMA.
According to the New York Post (NYP), all of the nursing home patients who died were over 80 years old, and while medical officials are not indicating significant concern, “they are adjusting their guidance on who should receive the vaccine.”
The NMA explained that the “large studies” on the Pfizer/BioNTec vaccine “did not include patients with unstable or acute illness – and included few participants over 85 years of age. In Norway we are now vaccinating the elderly and people in nursing homes with serious underlying diseases, therefore it is expected that deaths close to the time vaccination may occur.”
“Doctors must now carefully consider who should be vaccinated,” stated Steinar Madsen, medical director with the agency.
