回収ワクチンと死亡、関係不明 モデルナ製、調査継続―厚労省部会

 米モデルナ製の新型コロナウイルスワクチンの一部に異物が見つかった問題で、厚生労働省の専門部会は10日、混入製品と同時期に同じ工場で作られ、回収対象となった製品を接種した3人の死亡について、現時点では情報不足などにより因果関係は評価できないと判断した。
 専門部会は、今後も慎重に調査を続ける方針を確認。異物混入の恐れがあるワクチンは回収されているとして、接種の継続は問題ないとした。
 同日の会合で、3人の死因は38歳の男性が致死性不整脈で、残る2人は解剖途中で分かっていないことが明かされた。(2021/09/10-17:21)

Relationship between Moderna Vaccine Doses, Deaths Still Unknown


A Japanese health ministry panel said Friday that a causal relationship between doses of Moderna Inc.'s recalled COVID-19 vaccine and the deaths of three people who received them is still unknown.
   The panel said there is no sufficient information at the moment to determine whether a causal relationship exists between the shots and deaths.
   The three people died after receiving shots of the Moderna vaccine with the same lot number with those recalled due to contamination with foreign objects.
   The panel said it will continue to investigate the matter carefully. It said that the continued use of Moderna's vaccine will pose no problem as potentially contaminated shots have been collected.
   One of the three people, a 38-year-old man, died of lethal arrhythmia, the panel said. The causes of the deaths of the other two remain unknown as autopsies of their bodies are ongoing, it said.
