A commission appointed to examine the death of a 20-year-old woman after she was given the Janssen vaccine in September announced its unanimous assessment that the death was “definitely linked” to the vaccination.
The investigation confirmed the vaccination led to the thrombotic thrombocytopenia in the woman. Upon suspending the use of the vaccine, the government made it available only on a person’s specific demand accompanied by a written consent, which Health Minister Janez Poklukar said would be made into a new, permanent rule.
