Chest pain; shortness of breath and difficulty breathing; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 90-year-old female patient received their first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE; lot number and expiry date not reported), via an unspecified route of administration on the left arm on 11Jan2021 at single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included atrial fibrillation from an unknown date (AFib, diagnosed around 10 years ago), pulmonary issues from an unknown date and unknown if ongoing (pulmonary issues started within the last year), bad heart from an unknown date and unknown if ongoing. There were no concomitant medications. The patient experienced chest pain, shortness of breath and difficulty breathing on an unspecified date. The patient further reported that she has a lot of the symptoms that she lives with daily, she has a bad heart, has A Fib, has a pulmonary doctor and she discussed this with her doctor and they told her to go ahead and get the vaccination, so she went ahead with the vaccine, about 3-4 days later, got these chest pains, she has not had any chest pains connected to her Afib before, she also had shortness of breath and difficulty breathing 3-4 days after the vaccination, when she sat down and waited for this to pass, when it did pass, does not know if it was 5 min or 10 minutes, when that went away she felt very good. The patient also reported that she has not had any more chest pains since the first episode, she is still struggling with the difficulty breathing but unsure if this is just her body and prior conditions or due to the vaccine. Does not know what it was, thought maybe she had a heart attack, wants to know if she should go ahead and get the second vaccine. Does not want to get any of the side effects worse than what she had, states someone told her the second one hits you harder and wants to know if this is true. The patient did not recover from shortness of breath and difficulty breathing while the outcome of the rest of the events was unknown. Information on the batch number/lot number has been requested

A 91-year-old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number: EL3249, expiry date: 31May2021), via an unspecified route of administration on 21Jan2021, 09:30 at a single dose on left arm for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included oesophageal dilation procedure from 11Jan2021 to an unknown date and had trouble swallowing from an unknown date and unknown if ongoing. There were no concomitant medications. The patient received the first dose of the vaccine on 21Jan2021 and everything was pretty good. Nothing bothered her until yesterday, Sunday morning. Her throat is not sore but swollen. She feels it is in her tonsils, like her tonsils are swollen. When she gets ready to swallow it is hard sometimes, she can swallow but it feels like something is in the back of her throat like her tonsils are swollen. She has had headaches off and on. She asked if these were normal symptoms after the vaccine. Reported her second COVID-19 Vaccine is scheduled for 11Feb2021 at 9:30AM. Reported she had 3 negative COVID-19 virus tests before. She said each time she had the COVID-19 virus test done was before a scheduled procedure. She said her last negative COVID-19 virus test was on 08Jan2021 before a procedure on 11Jan2021. She clarified she had trouble swallowing and had an esophageal dilation on 11Jan2021. She said she was put to sleep for the procedure. Clarified she has had an off and on headache, a sore throat that feels like her tonsils are swollen, and a pain that shoots through her ear occasionally.

Reported she left her COVID-19 vaccine paperwork at her daughter's house. She said her daughter read some of the COVID-19 vaccine side effects over the phone to her, but sore throat wasn't one of the listed vaccine side effects.

The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included sars-cov-2 test: negative on 08Jan2021. More information available (Y/N): No. Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of throat is not sore but swollen, headaches off and on and pain that shoots through her ear occasionally.

94 yo F presented from assist living with slur speech for 1 day, last seen well on 1/30. Pt has a PMH of dementia (Baseline, she will keep saying, "help me, help me", AOX3, using walker, could go to bathroom by herself), hx breast cancer (s/p lumpectomy, chemo, Tamoxifen, currently not on tx), HTN, HLD, vaginal bleeding (no further work up by family), overactive bladder (on solifenacin), hx of MI (undocumented, no PCI or CABG), spine stimulator placed. According to patient's daughter, she saw her January 30, she was doing okay after the vaccine. On 1/31 when the daughter called her on the phone, she knows she has some slurred speech, when she saw patient in the facility, she noticed her gait becomes unsteady. She decided to bring her to the hospital. 1/30, she noticed the patient has spilled up some water, otherwise denies fever, chills, shortness of breath, pain, chronically, she has constipations taking laxative. In the ED, pt was afebrile, 36.1, heart rate 85, blood pressure 130/61, respiratory rate 18, saturations 98 on room air. Labs shows, sodium 134, potassium 3.6, bicarb 28, BUN 18, creatinine 0.97, glucose 119, WBC 12.5, hemoglobin 11.8, platelet 239. PT INR 1.09, COVID negative. CT head suggestive of subacute infarct. Possible including small vessel ischemic changes. Chest xray questionable patchy left retrocardiac atelectasis or pneumonia. EKG shows atrial fibrillation's heart rate 71, QTc 610. Case was discussed with neurology in the ED, patient was not a TPA or embolectomy candidate. CT head suggestive of acute/subacute cerebellar infarct. Patient does not have any residual or sensory deficit except expressive aphasia. Neuro saw patient, mentioned patient appears to have had a stroke that by the CAT scan criteria is already subacute. The patient was admitted on the stroke pathway. The patient has new onset atrial fibrillation and therefore should be considered for anticoagulation. The patient cannot have an MRI of the brain due to her spinal cord stimulator but given that the stroke is already subacute on the CT without any signs of hemorrhagic conversion she could be started on this at this point. If she gets started on anticoagulation the aspirin should be stopped. If the patient cannot go on anticoagulation or does not want to then she might be a candidate for dual antiplatelet therapy for secondary stroke prevention. 2D echo shows normal ejection fraction of the left ventricle estimated at 70 to 75%. Regional wall motion abnormality was not observed. Right ventricle systolic function is normal. Moderate aortic stenosis. Cardio was consulted for anticoagulation, From cardioembolic prevention standpoint, anticoagulation is recommended to prevent CVA. However, she has significant risks for bleeding given recent vaginal bleeding (investigation not pursued to spare her comfort), age, comorbidities, etc. Again, further discussion between family and primary team is required regarding risks vs benefits. Was evaluated by speech-language pathology present minimal oral dysphagia no overt clinical signs of aspiration, recommended to continue with NDD 2 diet/thin liquid. Patient was discharged to ECF.

The vaccine (#2 in series) was administered in the drive through clinic. During the 15 minute waiting period, the patient developed headache, then began to have chest pressure and shortness of breath. She was given depo medrol 80 and benadryl 50mg. She was further evaluated and found to have blood pressure of 200/100 and oxygen saturation was 80 % . She was transferred right away to ambulance and transported to ER. She was able to stand on her own to transfer to the gurney to be transported. We have not been able to have follow up as of yet; she is not a patient of Health Center so records have not come to me (nor can they be released to me) from the hospital. We are continuing to try to reach the patient or her family to follow up on this case. I will update this report as more information becomes available to me. * the Regional Covid-19 Vaccine Clinic is a collaborative effort of Health Center, the Health Dept, Regional Hospital, and Pharmacy. Vaccines are given to all qualified residents, so the patients coming through on a certain day may or may not be the patients of the physicians working that day.

The patient received first dose of the same vaccine BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, solution for injection), Lot# EH9899 Exipration date : 31Mar20221, on 16Dec2020. Medical history included : cardiac failure congestive, hypertension, cardiac murmur .There were no concomitant medications. The patient previously took cymbalta , vasotec and zocor and experienced drug hypersensitivity. The patient didn't receive any other vaccines within 4 weeks prior to the COVID vaccine.This nurse,worker at a skilled nursing facility, reported that this patient with a history of heart failure, received her second dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech Covid-19 vaccine yesterday, 06Jan2021, at 3pm. At 7am on 07Jan2021 she was transferred to the hospital with tachycardia, congestion, shortness of breath, and is now unresponsive. Patient was stable prior to vaccination, but will now be transferred to hospice care. The nurse added the patient had the second COVID vaccine on 06Jan2021 yesterday and has now been transport to hospital due to a drastic decline after the shot.

The outcome of the events was not recovered.; Sender's Comments: The Company cannot completely exclude the possible causality between the reported tachycardia, shortness of breath, congestion, unresponsive, and the administration of the COVID 19 vaccine, BNT162B2, based on the reasonable temporal association. The patient's pre-existing medical condition of cardiac failure congestive, hypertension, cardiac murmur are confounding factors.

The patient medical history and concomitant medications were not reported. The patient previously received her first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE) on 02Mar2021. The patient was reported to have possible side effects that was getting worse. The patient had "chills, fever, nasal congestion, upper respiratory difficulty breathing, non-productive cough." On Monday evening, 29Mar2021, the patient was brought to the hospital but tests showed that "everything looked good" (chest x-ray etc.) Last night, the patient's temperature reached 104 F and was given paracetamol (TYLENOL). The patient mentioned that she was "breathing rapid," and that she "coughs when she takes a breath." Reporter asked if patient can be given an antihistamine; or something to help with the upper respiratory concern (nose blockage, upper respiratory breathing). The patient had not been well. They spent Monday evening and all night and in the morning at the hospital. They did X-rays and lab work and everything else. The doctors couldn't find anything wrong with her and stated that it's got to be the vaccine. She was really in bad shape at this point. She can't be out of bed for 2 seconds without having to get back into bed. She was having a upper respiratory thing going on. She had a fever as high as 104.5 last night. The fever was last night and she got paracetamol (TYLENOL) for that and brought it down. It did respond. The patient stated she can't breathe through her nose and she has upper respiratory problems. The problem was when they went to the hospital, they didn't find signs of infections, all normal across the board. The patient doesn't fake it, she was a feisty elderly lady. She walks up the hill every day. She was independent. Normally, she can walk and walks very well without any assistance. The patient now can barely walk. She can barely walk to the toilet without holding on to anything. She was constantly complaining about chills. Reporter wanted to know what can they do and not do and what should the doctors be looking at. They kind of just threw up their hands as this was side effects of the vaccine, but the patient was alarming on Monday night and even more alarming right now. The patient was in bad shape. She wasn't feeling good on Saturday night, but not too bad on Friday night. Reporter asked her mom how she felt on Friday. Reporter told her mom to put in her hearing aids, that would probably help. Reporter further explained that patient had a sore arm around the injection site and that she might not have been feeling that great. On Saturday, she was not feeling well and started to have a fever, sinus infection and upper respiratory problems. The patient stated that she finally identified it. Reporter confirmed the fever, sinus infection, and upper respiratory problems started on 27Mar2021 towards the late afternoon she was progressively getting worse. Fever, sinus infection, chills, upper respiratory problems all have worsened. The reporter stated that her mother's (patient's) arm pain got better on Sunday and was now gone. On Saturday, her arm hurt from her shoulder to her elbow, it did get worse. However, a the next day it was gone pretty much. Monday in the emergency room, they did labs for her kidney, liver and were looking for infection. They did not find anything came up normal on everything. Today, the reporter thinks patient was worse. She doesn't want to come out of bed at all. She was laying there like a lump, whining and crying which she has never done. She was probably going to take her to the hospital again and they were not going to do anything again. She stated that something got to change, They haven't had that conversation about going to the hospital. She was going to go downhill if this continues, it had gone downhill at this point. Reporter confirmed that patient has recovered completely from the arm pain while outcome of remaining events was not recovered. Information about the lot/batch number has been requested.

her mother's body was full blown with leukemia/she wasn't responding/leukemia was back; Second dose: breathing heavy; Second dose: screaming in agony and pain because her sides were blowing up in pain; Second dose: She had no red blood cells that could provide oxygen to her organs; Second dose: weak; Second dose: overproducing of her white blood cells; Second dose: wasn't acting like herself; Second dose: more tired; Second dose: she could hardly talk; Second dose: she couldn't stand up; Second dose: she lost control of her bowels; Second dose: hollow cough; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer. A 96-years-old female patient received bnt162b2 (BNT162B2), dose 2 via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Left on 28Mar2021 (Batch/Lot Number: EP6955) as 2ND DOSE, SINGLE for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included Leukaemia in 2018, High blood pressure with 40 years, Diabetes in 2016, Atrial fibrillation in 2018.The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. Patient previously received the first dose of BNT162B2 (Batch/lot number: EN6199) in left arm on 07Mar2021 for COVID-19 immunization. She had just had her blood drawn in Feb2021 and her blood was ok. So on 07Mar2021 she received her first Covid 19 vaccine. At 96 years old, after the Covid 19 vaccine, her mother's body was full blown with leukemia. Radiation wasn't an option to stop the overproducing of her white blood cells. The Covid 19 vaccine just accelerated it. Maybe there are others out there in this condition and should be double checking to see if they should get the Covid 19 vaccine. On the 12Apr2021 or 13Apr2021 her mother started having a hollow cough. She wasn't congested but she continued to cough. She noticed her mother was breathing heavy and fighting to breathe on Friday, on16Apr2021. It wasn't getting any better and she thought her mother would have more trouble so she took her to the emergency room. She reported she took her mother to the hospital on 16Apr2021.She was admitted on 16Apr2021 and discharged on 18Apr2021. They gave her some oxygen and did some tests. They asked her mother if she had chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and she did not, they suggested that it was her atrial fibrillation. She has had atrial fibrillation in the past, her doctor did leave her on her atrial fibrillation medication. She can't recall the name of the atrial fibrillation medication. She was discharged home on 18Apr2021 and she was breathing ok on her own. But by that next Tuesday, 20Apr2021, she noticed her mother was declining. She wasn't acting like herself. On Wednesday, 21Apr2021, she was more tired and her difficulty breathing started back up. On Thursday, 22Apr2021, she called the ambulance to take her mother to the hospital. She could tell that her mother wasn't herself, she could hardly talk on 22Apr2021 , she couldn't stand up, she lost control of her bowels. She wasn't responding to her. The caller knew something was going on. They put oxygen on her mother and they transferred her to a cancer specialist hospital. That's when the doctor realized it was a leukoblast. Clarified with caller, leukoblast. Then her mother died. She died on 28Apr2021.The caller knows the hospital was doing tests to see what was causing her mother's pain, but she doesn't have that information. She heard the screams from her mother and there was no consoling her mother. The hospital gave her mother morphine and it didn't work. She has no product information for the morphine, it was given in the hospital. She was screaming for murder, screaming for help and was given the morphine. Within a month of receiving the Covid 19 vaccine her leukemia was back and her mother was screaming in agony and pain because her sides were blowing up in pain. Whatever the Covid 19 vaccine did in her body, her body thought it was fighting off something. She had no red blood cells that could provide oxygen to her organs. She was weak. Overproducing of her white blood cells on an unspecified date. The lab data included White blood cell count abnormal and Red blood cell count decreased. Outcome of her mother's body was full blown with leukemia/she wasn't responding was fatal, of remaining events was unknown. Treatment received for all events. The seriousness of event breathing heavy and fighting to breathe were reported as hospitalization from 16Apr2021 to 18Apr2021. The seriousness criteria of she wasn't responding was reported as hospitalization from 22Apr2021 to 28Apr2021.; Reported Cause(s) of Death: Fatal Neoplasm progression

Chills, weakness, cough, runny nose, trouble breathing. Saturday the 27 is when it started, she woke with all these symptoms, she needed assistance with everything she normally does by herself ex: taking shower, getting dressed. Everyday after she got 10% better and as of this notice she still isn?t back 100%.. She better than she was but suffering from the effects. She?s not going to get second shot because she says it will kill her. I want her to get it but if the 2nd shot is worse than first I can?t in good conscience let her get it.

She has not been feeling herself; Wheezing; Mild tachycardia; Oxygen saturation drop; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable nurse (patient's son) via Pfizer sponsored program. A 97-years-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, solution for injection) (at 97 years of age), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in arm right on 18Mar2021 10:45 (Batch/Lot Number: EP6955) as 1ST DOSE, SINGLE for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included compression fracture (fell in the driveway) from Apr2010 to an unknown date, ongoing hypertension for a long time sine 1980s and has gotten less with age; diagnosed allergies, compromised immune status, respiratory illness, genetic/chromosomal abnormalities, endocrine abnormalities (including diabetes) and obesity. The patient has no known drug allergies and no known food allergies. Family history included cardiovascular, cholesterol, blood pressure, but nothing relevant to her situation. She was never a cigarette smoker and she had no history of smoking. Concomitant medication included atenolol taken for blood pressure from an unspecified start date and ongoing. The patient previously took atenolol for hypertension and experienced dizzy and sometimes her pulse will get a little on the higher side. She had no history of previous immunization with the Pfizer vaccine considered as suspect. She had no prior vaccinations within four weeks prior to the first administration date of the covid vaccine. She did not receive any recent vaccines for SARS-CoV2 other than Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine prior to the event being reported. The patient did not receive any recent vaccines for any other conditions prior to the event/s being reported. Patient received the first dose of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine 18Mar2021 and has yet to get the second dose. The patient experienced wheezing in the morning, mild tachycardia and Oxygen saturation drop on 15Apr2021. The patient got her first dose in Mar2021 and since then she had not been feeling herself so they waited on getting her second dose. The reporter asked if the patient can get her second dose or does she have to start all over. The patient is in a hospice, and she was at home; she can get out of the house rarely. The first dose was on 18Mar2021 and she tolerated it well. It was mentioned that she was kept in a tight bubble and anyone that comes into contact with her has to get the shot. She did about a month after her first dose experience wheezing. She never had wheezing before and she had to have oxygen, which she never had to use before. He said they had to do intermittent oxygen. She was doing ok now, and he was not sure if a month after the first dose was some kind of a reaction. The patient's first dose was on 18Mar2021 and has yet to get the second dose. He said a little less than a month later she had wheezing and that she never had wheezing and he never heard her wheezing. He said it was almost four weeks after the date of her vaccination. He said they put her on oxygen at home because her O2 saturation dropped. She was in the high 80's and she was usually in the high 90's. He said in mid Apr2021 she was in the 80's. He said the oxygen was intermittent now and they use 1L. He said he wanted to make sure her oxygen saturation stays good and that it was not life threatening. He said given her age she was dropping O2 saturations in the 80's and she was never in the 80's. She did not have her second dose and it was due 08Apr2021. He said she was doing ok, no wheezing at the time. He said with her age and hospice, he heard things on TV that there were lots of problems with the second dose any of the vaccines so they watch close. He said any contact with her is vaccinated and she stays in a tight bubble at home. He says they are being very conservative. He says she got the vaccine around 10:45am. It was mentioned that the patient was experiencing mild tachycardia. She was in the 90's or low 100's but was not sure if it was related to the wheezing or if it was the dose. He said he noticed it the first time on the same day he noticed the wheezing. He said that on 15Apr2021 her heart rate was 146 when checking oxygen saturation. He said that his mother's blood pressure was usually 115/75. He said her hypertension has gotten less with age. She has had no blood work done because of COVID or the pandemic. He says no pcp visits, only telemedicine visits. He said she has had no labs done in a long time but that they monitor every day and as long as she's eating, etc. Therapeutic measure was taken as a result of wheezing and Oxygen saturation drop wherein she was given intermittent oxygen 1L ordered by the hospice nurse. The caller says the used no inhaler or nebulizer because the oxygen brought her saturation up. He says they also gave her some cough medicine. He does not remember the name of the cough medicine. He says it was just some DM, dextromethorphan, from . The events did not result from Emergency Department, patient was not hospitalized, not admitted to an Intensive Care Unit. The patient was recovering from the events as she was getting better. Information on Lot/Batch number was available. Additional information has been requested.; Sender's Comments: As there is limited information in the case provided, the causal association between the event and the suspect drug cannot be excluded. The case will be reassessed once new information is available. The impact of this report on the benefit/risk profile of the Pfizer drug is evaluated as part of Pfizer procedures for safety evaluation, including the review and analysis of aggregate data for adverse events. Any safety concern identified as part of this review, as well as any appropriate action in response, will be promptly notified to Committees, and Investigators, as appropriate.
