- I was advised by the Acting Chief Health Officer (A/CHO), NSW Health, that “the panel reviewed your husband’s medical and autopsy records in detail and came to the conclusion that your husband is Iikely to have died from an underlying heart condition” and that “the panel recommend all your husband’s first degree relatives (including any children, siblings and parents) have testing to exclude a form of genetic heart disease given the young age at which he died”.
- He also advised that “a separate investigation was completed by the TGA to assess whether the influenza vaccine may have contributed to your husband’s death and concluded that the evidence was inconsistent with a causal role for influenza vaccine in his death”.
