Woman allegedly vomits blood after taking COVID-19 vaccine in Kaduna

A civil servant at the Gwamna Awan General Hospital in Kaduna State, Mrs Hannatu Tanko has revealed that she vomited blood after receiving the COVID-19 vaccine.

Mrs Tanko said she took the vaccine on the 25th of March 2021 and felt dizzy afterwards.

She explained that on Saturday the 28th of March she started vomiting clots of blood and was rushed to the hospital.

Tanko in a viral video said she took the vaccine at the Kaduna South secretariat because they were told that if they fail to take it they will not be paid salary.

“I was vomiting blood through my nostrils and mouth. I was rushed to Gwamna Awan Hospital, where I was given medications to subside the pain.

”They gave me an injection to relieve me from headache and told me to come for a test. I was also told to buy panadol. I left the hospital because they were not doing anything for me.

Mrs Tanko who is presently receiving medical treatment at Ashmed Specialist Hospital Trikania, Kaduna State said she is feeling better because they gave her a lot of injection to relieve her from the pains.

When asked if she took the vaccine voluntarily she said, “We were told in our place of work that if we don’t take the vaccine, we would not be paid. Since I’m the breadwinner of my family and my mother is sick, I had to take the vaccine so that I will be paid.”
