Doctors admit Covid vaccine possibly linked to 'mystery' death of Longford woman

Doctors who treated an elderly Longford woman who died following an unexplained series of seizures last year told an inquest it was possible that her death was linked to an adverse reaction to a Covid-19 vaccine.

However, two hospital consultants who treated the patient, Bridget Kerr (86), also stressed that it was not in their area of expertise to state definitively that a reaction to the Pfizer vaccine was an explanation for her death.

An inquest at Dublin District Coroner’s Court heard a post-mortem on the body of Ms Kerry, a mother of seven from Cooleeney, Dublin Road, Longford, was inconclusive in establishing the cause of her death.
