Shirel Hilel, 22, received her second vaccine dose two weeks ago, her sister

Nofar told Channel 13 news, in a segment aired Thursday evening. She

later reported feeling unwell and said she was experiencing muscle pain.

However, Hilel’s condition worsened and she began to have difficulty

breathing and pains in her chest and was taken to Safed’s Ziv Medical

Center.

At the hospital, Hilel was diagnosed with myocarditis, inflammation of the

heart muscle, which boyfriend Eyal said the doctor compared to a swollen

shoulder.

“On the last day of hospitalization, a deterioration in her situation began.

Persistent heart rhythm disturbances developed that didn’t respond to care

and after continued resuscitation, she was pronounced dead. We share in

the sorrow of the family over the heavy loss,” it said in a response to the

network.

Last month, the Health Ministry instructed hospitals to report any cases of

heart inflammation among the vaccinated.

“After several such cases of this type happened close to receiving the

vaccine, it was decided to put a specific focus on this issue,” Tai Brosh,

head of the Infectious Disease Unit at Assuta Medical Center in Ashdod,

told the Ynet news site at the time.
