I am saying that long covid is real, caused by both virus and vaccine. My sister developed long covid after her spring 2020 infection. Cardiac arrest 1 month after infection, arterial dissection in her brainstem 2 months after that. Prolonged issues afterward, she still suffers damage 3 years later. Everyone I know PERSONALLY (3 people) who has long covid, my sister being the most severe case I know, got it from their 2020/2021 infections. I have read and heard of many, many people getting a similar syndrome from the mRNA jabs. I was told by a nurse taking care of me at the ER when I had covid (after 3 jabs!) that she saw young people dying suddenly from the vaccine, especially from their booster shots. This terrified me as I had a booster shot 18 days before I got infected with covid (by my dad, who got it from my mom at the facility she was at). I have also read about and heard testimonials from people describing how they developed long covid after multiple reinfections of the virus, both vaxxed and unvaxxed.
The spike protein is toxic to cells no matter how it is delivered, via virus or vax. Some batches of the vaccine seem worse than others, just like some variants of the virus seem worse than others. This whole thing is a nightmare I feel like I can't wake up from. It truly breaks my heart when I see people making light of it or calling people crazy for being afraid of it.
I am not an antivaxxer, btw. I got a flu shot every year before the pandemic because of my Lupus. I even got 3 covid shots. Now I will never take another vaccine ever again unless God himself comes down from heaven to tell me it is safe. Even then, I might have questions.
"I'm not an antivaxxer, I just presume that all vaccines are harmful and refuse to take them!" Sure, Jan.
This whole sob story stretched the outer bounds of believability from the get-go, but at this point we're well past that into the point where I think you're just a generic antivax fabulist. I don't credit a word of it.
I swear to you I am not lying. I wish, I truly wish that what happened to my family wasn't real. It destroyed me totally. It was a nightmare. I got 3 covid shots. I still mask everywhere I go. What happened to my family isn't a "sob story" it is real. My twin sister contracted covid in spring 2020. I will never forget her calling me the first words out of her mouth "I can't taste anything.." Then the rash on her toes, the intense, dementia level brain fog. She kept saying she felt "poisoned." The virus is horrible. Horrible. Then one month into infection May 4th 2020 she collapsed on the stairs. Taken to ER, heart rate 208 , then cardiac arrest. Defibrillator saved her. July 22nd 2020 she suffered an arterial dissection in her brainstem. It was horrible. I was caring for my mother at the time and was exhausted and devastated. I lost friends I loved and trusted who refused to believe the virus wwas real. I agonized over getting the shots bc I was scared but I got my first in May my 2nd June 17th 2021. On December 5th 2021 the morning before I went to the hospital with my Dad to negotiate my mom's hospice care, I got an email from my best friend telling me that I had taken part in "demonic experimentation" by getting vaxed and that "half the country" didn't believe what happened to my sister and that covid was the flu. I swear to you this all happened. I am in therapy twice a week just so I do not end my life over it.
The nurse at the hospital really did tell me that about the boosters when I went for covid induced tachycardia on January 9th 2022. I was terrified.
I have no reason to lie. I am not an anti vaxer I swear. I even got the flu shot in 2021 along with the covid booster in Dec 2021, Dec 17th 2021. But when my mom passed and I had more time to research I started seeing that what that nurse had told me was true. Ppl were dying after the shots and they were dying suddenly after mild covid (had my sister not been in the hospital when she arrested she would have died.)
What happened to me and my family is real. I wish it wasn't. I cry for hours at night every night begging God to make it so it wasn't. But it is. Both covid & Vax harm & kill. Covid is probably worse for you than the Vax but the shots do not stop transmission and sometimes they don't even save people.
If we had type of normal regular covid shots available in Cuba and Iran for covid, I would take them. I am not an antivaxxer!
Cait, from what I've read, the Novavax booster is a similar type of vaccine (protein subunit type) to the Cuban vaccines, and it is available now. I don't know if that is reassuring to you, but I figured I'd mention it just in case.
Thanks for that response, it tracks with much of what I’ve read and heard from other sources. My family is fortunate in that we haven’t had any long term issues from either infection or vaccine (yet, that we know of), but I won’t be getting any more boosters as they seem to be ineffective. It’s frustrating to hear the narrative that everyone who is skeptical about this particular shot is an antivaxxer, or conspiracy theorist or lunatics. I’m just trying to keep myself healthy the old fashioned way, good food, good sleep, sunshine, fresh air, exercise and all that. I’m sorry about your sister. I lost mine years ago to a long illness and it is devastating to watch someone you love suffer. If I knew for sure that her illness was caused by medical malpractice or something, I’d be mad as hell too. I like to think that I could keep my rage contained and channeled into fighting for solutions, but do any of us really know how we’ll respond to the next crisis?
I'm with you. I had three initial shots, but I don't plan on getting any more, and I certainly don't plan on having my children get any more (they had two, over a year ago now). Especially since they only have effectiveness for around 6 weeks after vaccination.
I currently have COVID, and I'm lucky in that it's mostly the most annoying cold ever. Day 8 and tested positive again this morning... so that part's annoying but my symptoms are improving.
It’s a strange thing how different the experience is for people. I had it last year, felt exhausted for about 2 days, then yes, the most annoying cold ever. I’ve felt worse from the flu or food poisoning. I knew I had COVID because I felt exactly the same way after each of my 4 shots. I told my kids they don’t need to get anymore shots, spouse is still considering it even though he’s had COVID twice. I lived in a vague state of fear for two years, I’m done with it. I will still wear a mask if my doctor’s office requires it or I was visiting someone in the hospital, but not for everyday public life. I know a 20+ year out elderly transplant patient (seriously compromised immune system) has had many boosters and has never caught COVID. He goes about living his best retired life without any more masking. He was super paranoid about it in the beginning, with good reason. Life goes on; messy, amazing, and weird as it is.
I was paranoid at first, too. I freaking disinfected my groceries because I saw some (insane) doctor doing it on a video (maybe a couple of times). I won't make my kids wear masks anymore (haven't in a long time), nor did I wear one before recently getting ill (my I got it from my husband).
I had the vaccine and woke up in the night with a fever, fainted and banged my head on a radiator so hard that I blacked out.
Covid itself was a few days of a cold and a few weeks of slightly low energy.
There's no way I'm having any more vaccines - that one nearly killed me. And when they wanted my two-year-old vaccinated, I told them to fuck right off.
I am not lying, I swear to you. My hospital visit for covid induced tachycardia occurred on January 9th, 2022 at Pennsylvania Hospital in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Maybe she was lying to me, I do not know but I swear to God that this is what she told me. I cried my eyes out afterward, wracking sobs.
My sister does indeed have long covid. Her cardiac arrest occurred on May 4th, 2020 at UPENN hospital. The arterial dissection in her brainstem was found on July 22nd, 2020. Her infection as best we can tell, occurred in late March as her first symptom, loss of taste, occurred on April 1st, 2020. She worked at an international tourist attraction in my Northeast city. I will never ever forget her initial phone call to me, talking about the weird rash on her toes then all of the sudden saying "yeah and I can't taste anything." Then the chills, tachycardia, the dementia level brain-fog (getting lost in her own house, forgetting her roommates name. It was horrible. Horrible. I have flashbacks of her calling me confused and terrified. Then the tachycardia, etc. Then that awful day on May 4th 2020 when the hospital called, the attending doctor "Shannon heart stopped, very briefly, but we were able to bring her back." The name of the doctor who ordered the MRI in July is Dr. Alexis Ogde-Beatty, also at UPENN.
I wish that all I stated above never happened, trust me. I wish I was lying. I cry at night begging God to make it so it all never happened. What happened to my sister destroyed my family forever. My mother passed away on March 7th 2022 from complications of Lupus SLE, emphysema & congestive heart failure. I inherited Lupus SLE and autoimmune emphysema from her. I take great pains with my lifestyle and diet to avoid developing CHF. It was a nightmare caring for her alone while my sister got sicker and sicker, then the riots happened and my neighborhood became a war zone. I have flashbacks and nightmares and cry every day reliving what happened.
I wish I was lying. I would do anything, anything to make it so it all never happened. I would do anything.

There's no way a 2-year-old needs that vaccine unless maybe there are some preexisting conditions going on or something else makes it urgent.
Glad you're okay now.
The nurse did not see multiple young people dying suddenly after boosters. That is a lie.
The rest is about as believable.
