PRINCES TOWN, TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO – Ijaz Haniff, a 60-year-old Princes Town resident has died of blood clots just eight days after receiving the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine. Hanif was admitted to the intensive care unit where he eventually died.

His sister, Amin, spoke with reporters following her brother’s funeral service and said that her brother was feeling well when he went to the Princes Town Health Facility to get the vaccine:

“He was good, good before. It is the vaccine that made him get like that. In a matter of a few days he died. He would’ve turned 61 next month.”

She also claimed that the hospital was trying to cover up the cause of her brother’s death:

“They’re covering it up … They say they can’t find his files. Where did the files disappear to? It looks like they look got rid of them as soon as he died.”
