Authorities investigate death of NSW woman who developed blood clots after Covid vaccination

Australia's medicines regulator is examining the 48-year-old's death but experts suggest it would be unusual if the vaccine was responsible

Australia's medicines regulator and the NSW health department are investigating the death of a 48-year-old diabetic woman who developed blood clots after receiving a coronavirus vaccine.

The woman, from Lake Macquarie on the NSW Central Coast, received the vaccine last Friday and developed blood clots the next day before being placed on dialysis. She died on Wednesday.
