New Delhi: A 46-year-old, who worked as a ward boy at a government hospital in Moradabad district, died 24 hours after receiving Covid-19 vaccination.
It is said that Mahipal Singh started feeling uneasy soon after taking the COVID-19 jab.
He died 24 hours after complaining of chest congestion and breathlessness.

“He was vaccinated on Saturday around noon. On Sunday he felt breathless and complained of chest congestion. We are inquiring into the reasons of the death. We will get a post mortem done. It does not seem to be a reaction to vaccination. He did night duty on Saturday too and there were no problems,” MC Garg, Moradabad’s chief medical officer, told reporters late last night.
