The U.S. Food and Drug Administration is now investigating whether the coronavirus vaccine is linked to deaths in several unspecified age groups, the Department of Health and Human Services told HuffPost.
“FDA is doing a thorough investigation, across multiple age groups, of deaths potentially related to COVID vaccines,” a DHS spokesperson said in an email to HuffPost about the news, which Bloomberg first reported.
HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a controversial anti-vaxxer who has admitted Americans shouldn’t take medical advice from him, sparked the initial investigation in September after claiming that the vaccine is dangerous despite experts having found that it is generally safe, with the exception of rare allergic reactions.
The news of the now seemingly expanded investigation comes after Dr. Vinay Prasad, the FDA’s chief medical and scientific officer, announced in an email that the deaths of 10 children were linked to the vaccine. However, he did not provide details or evidence.
In the email last month, Prasad also claimed that the disease was not “highly lethal for children.”
“Healthy young children who faced tremendously low risk of death were coerced, at the behest of the Biden administration, via school and work mandates, to receive a vaccine that could result in death,” Prasad said.
