The death of a woman in New Zealand has been linked with the Pfizer coronavirus jab.

Health experts there say it was caused by inflammation of the heart muscle which was "probably due to vaccination".

The company says it's an extremely rare case.

Bloomberg reports that the case has been referred to the coroner and the cause of death has not yet been determined, however the board “considered that the myocarditis was probably due to vaccination,” it said. “This is the first case in New Zealand where a death in the days following vaccination has been linked to the Pfizer Covid-19 vaccine.”
