TEENAGER Natalie Morton died from a malignant tumour in her chest and not from a reaction to the cervical cancer jab, it was revealed today.
Deputy coroner for Coventry Louise Hunt told Natalie's parents that the current indication was that the vaccine was not a contributing factor in her death.
Opening and adjourning the inquest at Coventry Magistrates' Court, she said: “It appears that Natalie died from a tumour in her chest involving her heart and her lungs.”
Natalie, 14, collapsed less than two hours after being given a cervical cancer vaccination at Coventry's Blue Coat Church of England School on Monday.
