She had heart arrhythmia, and she had high blood pressure. She was diagnosed with COVID today along with strep throat, and her family doctor prescribed Paxlovid, but when they tried to get a coupon or discount card, they were telling her she was not eligible because she had the (Withheld) through (Withheld) and she is sick... she meant, she got your vaccine whatever, and your booster back in 2020 and she still ended up with COVID. Same thing the following year. Got the vaccine and she still ended up with COVID. The second time she ended up having to get a transfusion because she had it so bad. The vaccine didn't help her at all. She does not want to end up in the hospital in the ER again, but she can't afford to pay six hundred # copay for a prescription. She meant her husband and she both retired, they are on social security." She just retired back in Mar and she feeling the effects of everything right now.

Since no determination has been received, the case is managed based on the company causality assessment.; Sender's Comments: The effect of a vaccine varies from person to person and is influenced by several factors, however, causal association cannot be excluded between the reported event of drug ineffective, covid 19 and BNT162b2 use.
