BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) â As the world continues to fight COVID-19 new advancements in medicine have brought hope to the idea of returning to a pre-covid world. Currently there are three different vaccines being offered across the country â Moderna, Pfzier, and Johnson & Johnson. âWeâve given 93 million vaccine shots, physician at Urban Family Practice Dr. Raul Vazquez said. If something were to happen we would have seen it.â
Dr. Vazquez has been issuing COVID-19 vaccines for months and like many other shots, he said there are some side effects to the vaccines. But he said it is nothing too unbearable.
Officials confirmed Monday that a man in his 70s died shortly after getting the COVID-19 vaccine at the Jacob Javits Center vaccination site in Manhattan Sunday. NY Health Commissioner Dr. Howard Zucker said, "initial indications are that the man did not have any allergic reaction to the vaccine."
