Cardiac arrest a factor in jab deathCardiac arrest was determined to be the cause of death of the volunteer rescuer who died after receiving a third shot of the AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccine in Ratchaburi, doctors said on Sunday. Experts at the hospital found Prasong's death was caused by the complete blockage of a coronary artery, which led to a cardiac arrest. The hospital's deputy director, Thanaboon Prasarnnam, said Prasong's death was the first reported death following a Covid-19 booster shot in the province. In cases of death after a jab, the payout is limited to 400,000 baht, according to NHSO compensation regulation. Prasong's funeral rites began yesterday, and his cremation is scheduled for Thursday, a source close to the family said.
