A 45-year-old man died shortly after he was administered the second dose of a COVID-19 vaccine in a hospital in Bhiwandi in Maharashtra's Thane district on Tuesday, officials said.

Sukhdeo Kirdit, employed as the driver of a local doctor, took the shot around 11 am. He complained of giddiness after some time while he was seated in the waiting hall at the civic-run inoculation centre, they said.
