    A Dunedin man's death is being investigated to see whether it's connected to the Covid-19 vaccine

    A Dunedin man's death is being investigated to see whether it's connected to the Covid-19 vaccine


    Rory Nairn died on November 17 - nearly two weeks after his first Pfizer dose.

    The 26 year old's death has been referred to the Coroner - with the exact cause yet to be determined.

    Fiancee Ashleigh Wilson says he started feeling heart flutters after his jab - and collapsed days later.

    She says whatever the cause - he should've been made more aware of potential vaccine side effects.

    A spokesperson for Coroner Sue Johnson says Nairn's case is active.
