The COVID-19 pandemic has been a topic of discussion worldwide since its emergence in 2019. Governments and healthcare organizations have worked tirelessly to develop and distribute vaccines to curb the spread of the virus. However, despite the success of the vaccination campaigns, several reports have emerged regarding adverse effects of the vaccines on individuals. This essay aims to shed light on how mainstream media ignores the deaths and adverse reactions caused by the COVID-19 vaccine. Specifically, we will look at the deaths of a 13-year-old boy, an Obstetrician/Gynecologist, a 39-year-old single mom, and a 58-year-old minister.
Firstly, on June 19th, 2021, a 13-year-old boy died three days after receiving the COVID-19 vaccine in Michigan. This news received little attention from mainstream media, and it raises questions about the safety of the vaccine for children. According to reports, the boy received the second dose of the Pfizer vaccine before his sudden death. The authorities have yet to confirm if the death was related to the vaccine or any underlying health condition. The lack of coverage by the mainstream media raises concerns about the transparency and accountability of the vaccine distribution process.
Secondly, on December 18th, 2020, an Obstetrician/Gynecologist, Dr. Gregory Michael, received the first dose of the Pfizer vaccine in Miami, Florida. Shortly after receiving the vaccine, he reportedly developed acute immune thrombocytopenia, a rare bleeding disorder. Unfortunately, he died 16 days after receiving the vaccine. This news received little coverage from mainstream media, despite the fact that Dr. Michael was a highly respected and prominent physician in his field. His death highlights the need for further research into the long-term effects of the vaccine on individuals with underlying health conditions.
Thirdly, Kassidi Kurill, a 39-year-old single mom from Ogden, Utah, died four days after receiving the COVID-19 vaccine. Her death received little coverage from mainstream media, despite the fact that she was a healthy and active individual with no underlying health conditions. According to reports, she experienced chest pains and difficulty breathing before her sudden death. This raises questions about the safety of the vaccine for individuals with no underlying health conditions.
Finally, on January 20th, 2021, a 58-year-old mother, grandmother, and minister died less than an hour after receiving the Pfizer vaccine in Warsaw, Virginia. Her death received little coverage from mainstream media, despite the fact that she was a highly respected member of her community. According to reports, she experienced anaphylaxis, a severe allergic reaction, shortly after receiving the vaccine. Her death highlights the need for further research into the potential allergic reactions caused by the vaccine.
In addition to the deaths mentioned above, reports show that more young people are dying of heart attacks now than before the pandemic. According to a study by the British Heart Foundation, there has been a 30% increase in heart attacks among people aged 40 to 49 since the start of the pandemic. This has raised concerns about the impact of the pandemic on the mental and physical health of individuals.
It is important to note that the above cases do not imply that the COVID-19 vaccine is unsafe or ineffective. The vaccine has undergone extensive clinical trials and has been approved by regulatory authorities worldwide. However, the lack of coverage by mainstream media raises questions about their responsibility to inform the public about potential adverse effects of the vaccine.
The role of mainstream media is crucial in shaping public opinion and facilitating informed decision-making. They have a responsibility to report on all sides of the story, including the potential risks and benefits of the COVID-19 vaccine. Failure to do so undermines the public’s trust in the media and the
vaccine distribution process. It is essential to strike a balance between promoting vaccination as a crucial tool to curb the spread of the virus and providing accurate and transparent information about its potential risks.
To counter the spread of misinformation and promote transparency, it is crucial for mainstream media to provide accurate and unbiased information about the vaccine. They must report on potential adverse reactions and deaths related to the vaccine and provide context and analysis based on scientific research. Additionally, they should highlight the benefits of the vaccine and the positive impact it can have on individuals and society as a whole.
In conclusion, the deaths of a 13-year-old boy, an Obstetrician/Gynecologist, a 39-year-old single mom, and a 58-year-old minister have raised concerns about the safety of the COVID-19 vaccine. The lack of coverage by mainstream media about these deaths has undermined their responsibility to inform the public about the potential risks of the vaccine. While it is crucial to promote vaccination as a tool to curb the spread of the virus, it is equally important to provide accurate and transparent information about its potential risks. Failure to do so undermines the public’s trust in the vaccine and the vaccine distribution process. It is essential for mainstream media to strike a balance between promoting vaccination and providing accurate and unbiased information about its potential risks to facilitate informed decision-making among the public.
