About the event
An independent report has today been published into the tragic death of a 27-year-old man who was wrongly given the AstraZeneca vaccination.
Read the report Suffolk and NE Essex Investigation Final Published Version Sept 2024.pdf
The independent investigation into the death of Jack Last in April 2021 was undertaken by Facere Melius on behalf of the NHS Suffolk and North East Essex Integrated Care Board (ICB).
It was commissioned by the ICB to understand what happened and how system partners managed his care, and to ensure any relevant lessons were learned.
The report concluded that Jack’s death occurred because of system errors which led to him being invited to receive a COVID-19 vaccination in March 2021 before he should have been.
Jack was invited to receive the vaccination because he was incorrectly classified as living with his parents, thereby giving him household contact status.
