"The Placer County Sheriff-Coroner Division is providing an update in the case of the individual who passed away on January 21st, several hours after he was administered the COVID-19 vaccine. The individual was a 64-year old male, who was employed as a healthcare worker at a facility located in Placer County. The individual began complaining of side effects within ten minutes of vaccination, which led to our decision to inform the public of the investigation occurring.

Through our investigation, we have learned more details about the individual. We have learned that not only had he recently been diagnosed with COVID-19, he also had underlying health issues, and had been exhibiting symptoms of illness at the time the vaccine was administered. Clinical examination and lab results have determined the COVID-19 vaccine has been ruled out as a contributing factor in the individual’s death.

We would also like to take this moment to sincerely apologize for some of the Facebook comments made by our agency after we first informed the community of this incident. We realize how they were taken by the public, and it should not have happened."
