Oregon Heath Authority study reports no link between Covid-19 vaccine and cardiac deaths

PORTLAND, Ore. (KATU)

A study from the Oregon Health Authority (OHA) found that there is no link between the Covid-19 vaccine and cardiac deaths.

OHA says this study comes after several reports of athletes suffering from cardiac arrest.

Officials investigated nearly 1,300 deaths among Oregonians ranging between the ages of 16 and 30 that occurred over 19 months during 2021 and 2022.

The reports states that of the 40 deaths that occurred among persons who had received an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine dose, only three occurred within 100 days after vaccination. However, two of the deaths were attributed to chronic underlying conditions, and the cause was undetermined for one.

The study showed none of the deaths that happened within 100 days of getting a mRNA vaccine were attributed to vaccination.

An OHA doctor recommends the COVID-19 vaccination for people over six months old.

Nevertheless, Cieslak said, it is clear that the risk, if any, of cardiac death linked to COVID-19 vaccination is very low, while the risk of dying from COVID-19 is real. We continue to recommend COVID-19 vaccination for all persons 6 months of age and older to prevent COVID-19 and complications, including death, says Paul Cieslak, M.D.
