Additional Information: GSK Receipt Date: 07-JUL-2026 The patient went for a tetanus shot but was given Boostrix, which contained the whooping cough component. The patient went for tetanus vaccination because they had scraped their arm on metal. The patient was suggested that the whooping cough vaccine should be taken off the market as it had a common chance of side effects, with a 17 to 22 percent possibility and a small chance of getting whooping cough of 0.05 percent.; Sender's Comments: A case of Paraesthesia and Angina pectoris, less than a day after vaccination with unknown dose of Boostrix, in a 59-year-old male patient. Based on the available information, a possible causality that the events were caused by the GSK product cannot be ascertained. Further follow-up information has been sought.
