No Link Between COVID-19 Vaccines and Sudden Deaths, Confirms ICMR-AIIMS Studies

Lifestyle and Pre-Existing Conditions Found to Be Major Contributors
Indian Masterminds Stories

Extensive investigations led by premier medical research bodies in India have ruled out any direct link between COVID-19 vaccines and sudden unexplained deaths among adults. Comprehensive studies conducted by the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR), National Centre for Disease Control (NCDC), and the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) have found that lifestyle factors, genetic predispositions, and pre-existing health conditions are the primary contributors to such deaths.

Responding to public concerns, the government undertook multiple research initiatives to understand the phenomenon of sudden deaths, particularly in the 18–45 age group. The findings show that COVID-19 vaccines administered in India are both safe and effective, with serious side effects remaining extremely rare.

One of the major studies, conducted by ICMR’s National Institute of Epidemiology (NIE), titled “Factors Associated with Unexplained Sudden Deaths among Adults Aged 18–45 Years in India – A Multicentric Matched Case–Control Study,” was carried out from May to August 2023. Spanning 47 tertiary hospitals across 19 states and union territories, the study analyzed deaths that occurred between October 2021 and March 2023. It concluded that COVID-19 vaccination does not increase the risk of sudden unexplained death in young adults.

A second ongoing study by AIIMS, titled “Establishing the Cause in Sudden Unexplained Deaths in Young,” is being carried out in collaboration with ICMR. Early results from this prospective research confirm that heart attacks or myocardial infarctions (MI) are the leading cause of such deaths in the age group, with no significant changes observed when compared to historical data. In several cases, genetic mutations have also been identified as contributing factors.

The two studies provide a detailed and multi-layered understanding of sudden deaths among young adults in India. They collectively affirm that the cause lies more in underlying health issues, genetic vulnerabilities, and unhealthy lifestyle habits rather than in COVID-19 vaccination.

Health experts and scientific bodies have cautioned against unverified claims and misinformation linking vaccines to sudden deaths. Such narratives, they warn, are not grounded in scientific evidence and pose a serious risk to public trust in vaccines, which have played a vital role in saving lives during the pandemic.

The Government of India continues to emphasize its commitment to evidence-based research and science-driven policymaking, underscoring that safeguarding public health remains a top national priority.
