As with nearly all of these situations, demented anti-vaxxers step up within minutes of deaths or hospitalizations with all sorts of false claims that the situation was caused by the Covid vaccine. Not only do the anti-vaxxers spin false claims but they also torment the families of the deceased and hospitalized. In many situations involving children, parent are called murderers and mobs are raised online to harass and harm the parents. The situation has reached the point where law enforcement needs to get involved to put an end to the threats, harassment, and false information. The current abuse of grieving families is unacceptable. Anti-vaxxers are exploiting sudden deaths to spread lies about Covid jabs https://metro.co.uk/2023/02/04/anti...den-deaths-to-spread-covid-jab-lies-18223514/ The cause of six-year-old Anastasia Weaver’s tragic death may not be known for weeks. But anti-vaxxers needed only hours after family and friends said their final goodbyes at her funeral to baselessly attribute it to the Covid vaccine. A prolific Twitter account posted Anastasia’s name above a picture of her smiling for a dance portrait with a syringe emoji. Someone even messaged her grieving mother Jessica Day-Weaver, from Ohio, to call her a ‘murderer’ for getting the youngster vaccinated. In reality, Anastasia had experienced lifelong health problems since her premature birth, including epilepsy, asthma and frequent hospitalisations with respiratory viruses. ‘The doctors haven’t given us any information other than it was due to all of her chronic conditions,’ Jessica said. ‘There was never a thought that it could be from the vaccine.’ But those facts didn’t matter online, where Anastasia was swiftly added to a growing list of hundreds of children, teens, athletes and celebrities whose unexpected deaths and injuries have been incorrectly blamed on the jab. Using the hashtag #diedsuddenly, conspiracy theorists have flooded social media with news reports, obituaries and GoFundMe pages in recent months, leaving grieving families to wrestle with the lies. There’s the 37-year-old Brazilian television host who collapsed live on air because of a congenital heart problem. The 18-year-old unvaccinated bull rider who died from a rare disease. The 32-year-old actress who died from bacterial infection complications. The use of ‘died suddenly’ — or a misspelled version of it — has surged more than 740% in tweets about vaccines over the past two months compared with the two previous months, the media intelligence firm Zignal Labs found in an analysis conducted for The Associated Press. The phrase’s explosion began with the late November debut of an online ‘documentary’ by the same name, giving power to what experts say is a new and damaging shorthand. ‘It’s kind of in-group language, kind of a wink wink, nudge nudge,’ said Renee DiResta, technical research manager at the Stanford Internet Observatory. ‘They’re taking something that is a relatively routine way of describing something — people do, in fact, die unexpectedly — and then by assigning a hashtag to it, they aggregate all of these incidents in one place.’ The campaign causes harm beyond just the internet, epidemiologist Dr Katelyn Jetelina said. ‘The real danger is that it ultimately leads to real world actions such as not vaccinating,’ said Dr Jetelina, who tracks and breaks down COVID data for her blog, ‘Your Local Epidemiologist’. Hundreds of millions of doses of the Covid vaccine have been administered worldwide, with rigorous study and real-world evidence proving them to be both safe and effective. Deaths caused by vaccination are extremely rare and the risks associated with not getting jabbed are far higher than the risks of vaccination. But that hasn’t stopped conspiracy theorists from lobbing a variety of falsehoods at the vaccines. The ‘Died Suddenly’ film features a montage of headlines found on Google to make the unfounded claim that sudden deaths have ‘never happened like this until now’. It has amassed more than 20 million views on an alternative video sharing website, and its companion Twitter account posts about more deaths and injuries daily. An AP review of more than 100 tweets from the account in December and January found that claims about the cases being vaccine-related were largely unsubstantiated and, in some cases, contradicted by public information. Some of the people featured died of genetic disorders, drug overdoses, flu complications or suicide. One died in a surfing accident. The filmmakers did not respond to specific questions from the AP, but instead issued a statement that referenced a ‘surge in sudden deaths’ and a ‘PROVEN rate of excess deaths’, without providing data. The number of overall deaths in the US has been higher than what would be expected since the start of the pandemic, in part because of the virus, overdoses and other causes. Covid-19 vaccines prevented nearly 2 million US deaths in their first year of use alone. Some deaths exploited in the film predate the pandemic. California writer Dolores Cruz published an essay in 2022 about grieving for her son, who died in a car crash in 2017. ‘Died Suddenly’ used a screenshot of the headline in the film, portraying his death as vaccine-related. ‘Without my permission, someone has taken his story to show one side, and I don’t appreciate that,’ she said in an interview. ‘His legacy and memory are being tarnished.’ Others featured in the film survived — but have been forced to watch clips of their medical emergencies misrepresented around the world. For Brazilian TV presenter Rafael Silva, who collapsed while reporting on air because of a congenital heart abnormality, online disinformation prompted a wave of harassment even before the film used the footage. ‘I received messages saying that I should have died to serve as an example for other people who were still thinking about getting the vaccine,’ Silva said. Many of the posts online cite no evidence except that the person who died had been vaccinated at some point in the past, using a common disinformation strategy known as post hoc fallacy, according to Dr Jetelina. ‘People assume that one thing caused another merely because the first thing preceded the other,’ she said. Some claims about those who’ve suffered heart issues also weaponise a kernel of truth — that vaccines can cause rare heart inflammation issues, myocarditis or pericarditis, especially in young men. Medical experts say these cases are typically mild and the benefits of immunisation still far outweigh the risks. The narrative has also leveraged high-profile moments like the collapse of Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin as he suffered cardiac arrest during a game last month after a fierce blow to his chest. But sudden cardiac arrest has long been a prominent cause of death in the US — and medical experts agree the vaccine didn’t cause Hamlin’s injury. For some families, the misinformation represents a sideshow to their real focus: understanding why their loved ones died and preventing similar tragedies. Clint Erickson’s son, Tyler, died in September just before his 18th birthday while golfing near their home in Florida. The family knows his heart stopped but still doesn’t know exactly why. Tyler wasn’t vaccinated, but his story appeared in the ‘Died Suddenly’ film nonetheless. ‘It bothers me, him being used in that way,’ Clint said. But ‘the biggest personal issue I have is trying to find an answer or a closure to what caused this’. Jessica said it was upsetting to see people exploiting her daughter’s death when they knew nothing about her. They didn’t know that she loved people so much she would hug strangers at Walmart, or that she had just learned how to snap. Still, she said: ‘I wouldn’t wish the loss of a child on anybody. Even them.’
LOL. One of the few remaining retards breaks the silence reeking of the bitterest cling and COPE. You were duped. Just admit it.
Says the horse paste promoter peddling fake crap from a group of snake oil salesmen. Whatever happened to mass deaths from the vaccine you were promising? When is everyone going to die? What is to cope here? Nothing you predicted has ever come true, all you do is peddle fake facebook stories. You don't even read your own shit that you post as evidence. Any day now? Guy has still has vaccine lover Trump's profile picture but of course he won't ever address that, even that fatso is alive after taking multiple boosters. MAGA MAGA STOCKS FLY.
And? What is even your point? According to your anti-vaxxer logic, I should have been dead a long time ago because of the booster and yet here we are. I asked about Trump and yet you have nothing to say as usual, the guy who got multiple boosters. Don't you have some papers to post that prove the opposite of what you claim? Post some instagram stories too. Buy more expensive horse paste, that will show Big Pharma.
I am keeping track... There are 23 ET members that have publicly stated here at the forum that they're fully vaccinated including me (Moderna)... Every one of us is still alive and posting here at the forum. There are 4 ET members that have publicly stated they dislike, don't trust, you will die if vaccinated but they have also stated they have a spouse that is fully vaccinated. Those ET members are still posting here at ET and not one of them have stated their spouse has dropped dead or suffered a vaccine injury...not one of them including Lacesout has stated a spouse (their spouse) has dropped dead. No updates by any of those 4 ET members about a dead spouse that dropped dead...WHY ? Donald Trump and his entire immediate family are fully vaccinated and boosted. Not one of them has dropped dead or suffered a vaccine injury. The recent article posted before my prior message post... The article does not state that Pegula (tennis star Mother/Owner of Buffalo Bills) was vaccinated or boosted. I'm not sure why Lacesout posted the article in the first place unless he hates the Buffalo Bills. Last of all, I remember a medical news article in lobby of a hospital back in mid 2000s when my spouse was having a prenatal checkup. The article stated a women in Canada suffers a heart attack and dies every 27 minutes. Today, it's now every 22 minutes that a Canadian woman has a fatal heart attack. Now let the Covidiots manipulate the below story of that article. https://www.cbc.ca/news/health/womens-heart-health-advocacy-1.6593599 wrbtrader
Instead of being happy that his shit predictions of mass deaths never came true, he is more than happy to make up shit to continue playing Mr.Science.
How many? When was the last one? And when is the next one? Why are all the vaxxtards so ashamed of their medical decision?
