SESTU, CAGLIARI – An autopsy has concluded that 27-year-old Carlotta Masala has died as a result of pulmonary edema linked to myocarditis. Carlotta, a sporty, sunny girl who had no previous health problems, was found dead by her father Francesco on Tuesday morning at their home in Sestu. The 27-year-old had received her second dose of the Pfizer vaccine in August.

Francesco commented after her death on Tuesday:

“Carlotta is gone. The rescuers said she died of natural causes.
Let me be clear: my daughter was healthy. She loved sports and photography. She had the second dose of the Pfizer vaccine in August.”

Carlotta’s sudden death was originally thought to be from natural causes, despite the 27-year-old having been previously healthy. However, Francesco demanded an investigation and autopsy which revealed yesterday the cause of death to be pulmonary edema linked to myocarditis.
