A family in Busan who lost their 70-year-old father, who had no chronic disease, three days after vaccination, poured out anger towards the government.
The bereaved family questioned the government, saying, "Is my father just unlucky?" and expressed the difficulty of the reality that in the death and sorrow of the vaccine, even the proof of side effects remains with the individual.
According to the bereaved family today (25th), Mr. A, who lives in Busan, died suddenly of cardiac arrest on the 15th, three days after receiving the second vaccination on the 12th of this month.
A 73-year-old man went out on the day of his death and felt cramped.
A's son said, "My father didn't have any chronic diseases, and he didn't take any medications on a regular basis."
He continued, "He likes the sea, so he corrected it enough to swim in the sea, and last month he was active and healthy enough to go sea fishing with only a tent and a fishing rod."
The bereaved family said that they were faced with the need to reveal the causal relationship between the vaccine and the death, as they did not feel the pain of grief caused by the sudden death.
A's son said, "When I heard that an autopsy was needed because the cause of death was unclear, it seemed like the sky was falling.I heard about it," he said.
A's son is asking the quarantine authorities, "Did my father just have bad luck?"
The people are participating in the national goal of vaccination, but the bereaved families say that it remains up to the individual to prove the connection between the death and sorrow caused by side effects.
The bereaved family said, "It is even more unbelievable that even the standard for vaccination according to the supply and demand situation of the vaccine or the government's needs is arbitrary. We need to prevent further damage and come up with appropriate compensation measures.”
These claims of the bereaved families will soon be made public through the petition bulletin board after 100 people have obtained the prior consent of 100 people, which is the requirement for posting a petition to the Blue House.
In May of this year, National Strength National Assembly member Kim Mi-ae proposed a partial amendment to the Infectious Disease Prevention Act, which required the government to prove a causal relationship between vaccination and side effects and to prove that there is no causal relationship.
According to Rep. Kim, as of the 12th of this month, there were 716 deaths reported after vaccination, and two cases of causality were recognized among the deaths.
Rep. Kim said on Facebook, "Even if the rate of death and serious adverse reactions is low due to vaccine side effects, it is a 100% risk if it becomes a job for me and my family." it is impossible to do,It is to prove that there is no causal relationship by the government that has monopolized all information.”
