A radio announcer died from complications from the AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccine, a coroner found.
Lisa Shaw, who worked for BBC Radio Newcastle, died aged 44 in May of that same year, after developing headaches a week after receiving the first dose of the vaccine.
Newcastle Coroner Karen Dilks was informed that Ms Shaw suffered blood clots in her brain that eventually led to her death.
At the end of a hearing that lasted less than an hour, senior Newcastle coroner Karen Dilks gave a narrative conclusion, which read:
“Lisa died from complications from an AstraZeneca Covid vaccine.”
Previously, pathologist Tuomo Polvikoski told the coroner that Ms Shaw, a well-known BBC Newcastle presenter, was fit and healthy before receiving her vaccinations.
The survey reported that the condition associated with the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine was very rare.
Ms Dilks said that Ms Shaw was previously fit and well, but concluded that it was “clearly established” that her death was due to a rare “vaccine-induced thrombotic thrombocytopenia”, a condition that leads to swelling and bleeding of the breast. brain.
Ms Shaw, mother of a son by Consett, received her first dose of the vaccine on April 29th.
On May 13, she was taken by ambulance to North Durham University Hospital after suffering from a headache for several days.

In a statement, Dr John Holmes who treated her said she complained of having a “severe stabbing headache” in her forehead and behind her eyes.
Tests were carried out and blood clots were found in her brain, prompting her to be transferred to the specialist neurology unit at the Royal Victoria Infirmary (RVI) in Newcastle.
Dr Christopher Johnson, the consultant in anaesthetics and intensive care at RVI, said Shaw had been conscious for several days and had been treated for the clots with drugs that appeared to be successful.
But on the night of May 16, Ms Shaw said her headaches were worse and she was having trouble speaking.
Tests showed that she had suffered a brain haemorrhage, and after her condition worsened, part of her skull was removed to try to relieve the pressure inside her head.
Her condition continued to worsen and despite further surgeries and treatments, she died on May 21st.
Dr Johnson said doctors attended a daily conference with a national panel on vaccine-induced thrombotic thrombocytopenia, a condition Shaw is believed to suffer from.
Asked if he would have changed the treatments given to Ms Shaw, he said, “No.”
Dr Johnson said the National Institute of Excellence in Health and Care (Nice) published guidelines on how to treat the disease in July, which matched the treatment Shaw received.
“Lisa received all the recommended treatments in the order they were recommended,” he said.
“If we had the same conditions tomorrow, we would do the same thing.”
Dr Tuomo Polvikoski, a consultant neuropathologist who examined Shaw after her death, said that given her health history and no medical problems, it was “surprising” that she died of blood clots and bleeding in the brain.
Dr Polvikoski said “in due course” that “it seems more likely” her death was “in fact induced by the vaccine”.
Dilks said the condition was “very rare” but agreed with Dr Polvikoski’s findings.
After the hearing, Ms Shaw’s family said in a statement:
“This is another difficult day in a devastating time for us.
“The death of our beloved Lisa has left a terrible void in our family and our lives.
“She really was the most wonderful wife, mother, daughter, sister and friend.”
Brazilian lawyer Bruno Oscar Graf, a healthy 28-year-old young man, after taking the AstraZeneca vaccine, had a fever and severe headaches were hospitalized and died of thrombotic thrombocytopenia.
His mother was informed by doctors that this month alone, there were 3 more deaths for the same reason.
The hospital listed stroke as the cause of death, which the mother disagrees with, and from what she understands, the doctors know that the cause is related to the vaccine.
As the mother does not accept the result of the death certificate, the hospital charged her R$ 3,875 (Reais, Brazilian currency) to take the exam to “confirm” the cause of death.
Bruno’s family is unhappy with the young man’s death and is clamouring for justice.
“We donated all the organs of our youngest 28-year-old because he was perfect and they are being removed today during the day.
I can’t leave it like this without other parents being alerted.
Vaccines were not developed for young people.” Affirmed the young man’s mother.
Bruno will be buried on the 28th of August, in the city of Blumenau Santa Catarina, in Brazil.
