Chris Seeks A Definitive Answer On Covid Vaccination Deaths
Christopher Chope Conservative, Christchurch
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether the Government accepts that some people have died as a direct result of having received a covid-19 vaccination; and if he will make a statement.
Maggie Throup The Parliamentary Under-Secretary for Health and Social Care
All vaccines deployed in the United Kingdom have been authorised through a rigorous and expert review process by the independent regulator, the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Authority (MHRA). The MHRA continues to monitor the safety and effectiveness of authorised COVID-19 vaccines, including reviewing all suspected Adverse Drug Reaction reports relating to COVID-19 vaccines where the patient died shortly after vaccination. The MHRA publishes a weekly report covering adverse reactions to approved COVID-19 vaccines which is available at the following link:

These reports summarise the outcome of a number of detailed safety assessments and provide the appropriate context. Vaccines remain the most effective way to protect people from COVID-19 and have saved tens of thousands of lives.
