Sandra Jacobs, 60, received the single-shot Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine at a CVS pharmacy on April 8, just five days before federal health agencies temporarily paused the vaccine administration while they examined an unusual blood-clotting disorder.
She died on April 21 of “complications of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis,” a type of stroke. Recent administration of the vaccine was a contributing condition
COVID-19 vaccine manufacturers and others are granted liability protections through the Public Readiness Emergency Preparedness Act, enacted in 2005. In 2020, the U.S. Health and Human Services secretary invoked the act and declared COVID-19 a public health emergency, warranting Johnson & Johnson and others immunity from lawsuits. The only exception is death or serious physical injury caused by “willful misconduct.” The protections, unless amended or rescinded, extend through Oct. 1, 2024.

A Texas family has been in limbo for six months since seeking help from a government program to cover medical bills for a 21-year-old man who suffered a rare severe reaction to a COVID-19 vaccine.
Kartik Bhakta was a second-year pre-med student at the University of the Sciences in Philadelphia while his family was living in Kingsville, Texas. His father, Mukesh, described him as a “genius” student.
His reaction to the vaccine, the ensuing medical bills and the family’s long wait for some recourse have been “like a hell,” Mukesh Bhakta said.
Despite his own experience, Kartik said he recommends people get vaccinated against COVID-19.
“The statistics show for someone to have reactions severe as mine are very, very, very rare,” he said. “I would like to suggest people not to be scared and still continue to get the vaccine.”
Nausea and vomiting set in two hours after Kartik received his first dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine on April 19, 2021. He’d been in good health the day before; he had no other medical conditions and had not been diagnosed with COVID-19.
Next came back pain and a severe rash. A couple of days after taking the shot, Kartik had blood in his urine. He was admitted to the hospital — and would stay there for three months.

He developed cataracts and tinnitus in both ears that progressed to deafness; his kidney failure grew worse.
He then developed neuropathy, which his doctors said might have been induced by steroids.
As for his other conditions, the doctors “don’t know exactly what happened,” Mukesh Bhakta said. “That’s why they throw all blame on the vaccine, because after the vaccine, this happened.”
