A 43-year-old woman from Plymouth had several blood clots and died less than two weeks after she was given the AstraZeneca vaccine.
Tanya Smith, 43, a childminder with three children of her own, was taken to hospital with severe stomach cramps days after her first jab, on March 21.
Kenneth Edwards, her partner, said that she had felt “pretty rough” for a couple of days after the jab and called 111 after waking up in pain one day.
Smith was taken to Derriford Hospital where doctors found blood clots in her arteries. On April 3 she had a heart attack and died. An inquest will determine the circumstances surrounding her death.
The case is under investigation by the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA),
