Kassidi Kurrill received the second Moderna dose on February 1st. She stayed in bed for the next two days, but on the third day she knew something wasn’t right. Her liver failed the next day, followed by her kidneys and then her heart. Her parents offered up parts of their organs to donate, but her body shut down too quickly to operate.
It’s very important to read these stories and understand that real people are dying, and it is sudden and heartbreaking. Sure, it may be rare, but it does happen. Is it a reaction to the polyethylene glycol, the lipid that encases the mRNA, or the body rejecting outright the attempt to insert a foreign genetic code into the body’s cells?
Even given these risks, is it worth it to get the vaccine? Cost/benefit should be weighed by everyone. What is the proof that the vaccines are more effective/safe than becoming infected with the actual virus?
It would be interesting to have the option to consciously infect oneself with the Sars-COV2 as opposed to the vaccine. Probably much safer for some, while providing effectively 100% chance of developing long-term immunity.
