By Froilan Gallardo, Special Correspondent A police autopsy report on the body of 73-year-old Zoilo Joaquin Borcillo who died minutes after he got his first jab of the AstraZeneca vaccine, revealed that the elderly male died of a heart attack. PNP 10 Medico Legal Officer Lt. Col. Christian Karl Terrence Caballes said an autopsy on the body of Borcillo revealed he did not die because of the AstraZeneca vaccine as earlier feared. “We did not find blood clots anywhere in his body or near where the point of the vaccine entered his left arm,” Caballes who have done the autopsy said in his report. Borcillo, a resident of Tin-ao, Barangay Agusan this city, died minutes after he was given his first jab of the AstraZeneca vaccine at shopping mall here. He died at the JR Borja General Hospital minutes later despite efforts by doctors to revive him. Caballes whose report was read by Mayor Oscar Moreno during the daily Covid presser here said he found Borcillo’s heart and the arteries leading to it, were filled with fatty deposits. He said the color of Borcillo’s heart was yellow indicating there was a buildup of fatty deposits. “Hirap na magpump nang dugo. There was no blood clots,” Caballes said. Caballes put the cause of death as acute myocardial infarction or heart attack. AstraZeneca, a two-dose vaccine, have been plagued with questions of rare, but severe blood clot issues connected to the shots. The Department of Health and the Food and Drug Administration, however gave the green light to the vaccine saying that the “benefits outweighs the risks.” Mayor Moreno said he hoped the autopsy report findings would put to rest the fears of senior citizens of being vaccinated with AstraZeneca. He said only 500 seniors of the 1,200 scheduled to be vaccinated today came forward to be inoculated. Moreno said before the incident happened last Wednesday, 6,275 seniors have already been vaccinated. He said the vaccination of seniors will resume on Monday at the SM Downtown Premier, Robinson's Grocery and JRBGH.
