An elderly man collapsed and died in New York City on Sunday morning shortly after receiving a COVID-19 vaccine, officials revealed Monday. Adverse reactions to the vaccine are considered extremely rare, with those few cases most commonly linked to an allergic reaction known as anaphylaxis. 'Initial indications are that the man did not have any allergic reaction to the vaccine,' Zucker, however, said in his statement. At least one dose of a vaccine has been administered to 31,579,100 million people, which equals to 9.6 percent of the population. Just over 9,147,000 Americans have now received both doses of a vaccine, amounting to 2.78 percent of the population.
