The health ministry later said an additional eight cases of anaphylaxis, a severe and potentially fatal allergic reaction, were reported, bringing the total to 25 among around 148,000 health care workers who have been inoculated as of Wednesday.
The rate compares with five cases in every 1 million doses administered in the United States and 20 cases per million in Britain, although Japan is further behind in its vaccine rollout and it could change as more people receive shots.
