How long does it take for the vaccine to kick in? Perhaps 2 weeks wasn't enough time, it would require maybe a couple of months? But oops, then the immunity is gone and you have to do the boost.
Weird journalism, no agenda here: antivax olympiad dies after 1st vaccination? Well I had covid with no jab and was fine after a weeks flu, and I'm a over weight, over 40s smoker. Go figure.
The Luciferian Satanists at the UK Independent and The Guardian do not care about truth; nor do they care about your health! They lied about this athlete being an "anti-vaxxer" since he was vaccinated; but what is worse, they obscured the fact that the quackzine killed him.
So you cannot tell the truth and facts on this propaganda rag
Shameful. The media involved with this crime will be held accountable make no mistake. Plenty of TV zombies in the comments. Unfortunately most of them have already taken the Schizer and will only wake up when they are hurt or dead.
What crime? Please explain.
Vaccinated Anti-Vax Olympic gold medalist.. Independent garbage news. You are Independent of Dignity
How can someone be labeled anti-vaxx and still take the vaccine? dies from the vaccine after contracting covid but it was his fault because he didnt develop anti-bodies? Logic much?
Eh...? How did you get from my rather harmless comment to "....internationally-known expert immunologist AND virologist."?
You comment doesn't make any sense.
He got ill two weeks after taking J & J vaccine which requires no booster. SO its a stretch to say that his anti vaxx stance lead to his death.
Evolution at work.......
Correct in that it was possibly a newer variant that the J & J jab he took two weeks prior to falling ill failed to protect against. So the virus evolved, our immune system adapts, the vaccine does not. He could've been more vulnerable if his immune system was depressed temporarily from the jab but two weeks should be sufficient for it to recover. I'm not saying the jab was a bad idea but to say his anti vaxx stance killed him is preposterous.
An anti-vaxxer dies from Covid! Shock! Horror! Surprise! Care factor: very low now.
Yes I do. Thats why the fact he took it two weeks earlier should have been stated in the article.
You wont get that info on a rag like the independent though
A lot of generalizing in that article. A lot of conclusion jumpers in the comment section. Can you have it both ways? (if true he was not past 14 days after jab) He's not vaccinated, and the jab didn't contribute to his demise???
Aren't all vaccines experimental by your definition, indeed all medicines and medical interventions...
The question is, why are autopsies not carried out? Probably for the same reason Clinical Trials were not properly done on these poison shots.
If he got the Johnson vaccine and no booster he had it coming.
Vaccines help, but you have to get them in time. And the right ones, apparently.
no, it's like jumping off a building without a parachute because it's a one story building and you've got a greater than 99% chance of survival because you're not old or fat.
Nobody can say for sure if they are healthy enough to survive a covid infection regardless of their perceived fitness. But statistics show you can be quite sure of surviving if you've been vaccinated even if you are old, unfit and suffer underlying health issues.
