The health authorities said Saturday that they are looking into the case of a teenager who died here two weeks after being vaccinated against COVID-19.

According to the authorities, the third-grade high school student, who had no underlying conditions, was inoculated with the Pfizer vaccine Aug. 13, but then died Sept. 27 in the first reported death of a vaccinated teenager.

Since mid-July, high school seniors and those who will take the national college entrance exam slated for Nov. 18 have been vaccinated. (Yonhap)
