“We are aware of the case!” Was the succinct response of a spokesman, who specified that an investigation by the Swiss drug regulator is pending.
The health authorities of the canton of the same name also refused to explain how much time elapsed from the moment of vaccination to death.
Lucerne was one of the first cities in the country to launch a vaccination campaign with Pfizer-Biontech last week. Switzerland received 107,000 doses of the drug and a second shipment of 250,000 vaccines is expected earlier this year.
At this stage, Pfizer has no answer on the tragic event of its preparation. The Swiss drug regulator also did not make a statement.
