The reporter thouht the 6 was the numeral six on the CDC vaccine record card. The patient had a severe adverse reaction including vomiting that ended in death after being administered that second dose of Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine. This reporter was advised by a family physician to ask for Pfizer to perform the autopsy on the deceased patient because she was unable to do so herself. The patient experienced vomiting and sore throat. She also then experienced swelling of the lips, tongue, cheeks and throat. They came home around 17:00 that day and the patient began throwing up around 19:00 that night of 05Apr2021. The patient took some Benadryl without telling them maybe around 00:00 or a little before 01:00 on 06Apr2021 because she was experiencing itchiness and swelling of the throat hoping that the Benadryl would help with those events.

After that she began having seizures throughout the early morning hours of 06Apr2021. Throughout that next morning of 06Apr2021 she was given Ativan to try to stop the seizures.

Then they took her off of sedation and after 36 hours they advised them that the patient wouldn't wake again.
