i knew i didn't want to take the clot shot but now i'm convinced more than ever that i did the right thing for me and my family.

before covid, sure people had strokes but the usual suspects; poor health, elderly; nothing seemed out of the ordinary.

but this..this is something else. my friend's wife had a stroke last year, followed by my other good friend has had multiple strokes in the last year and the kicker, my really really close friend had one in his basilar artery 2 days ago and is currently intubated with no prognosis yet.

they're all in their early 50s and literally in great health. not a single one is even slightly overweight and all just normal people going about their business.

because of COVID, i know all my close friends' views on the shot and in fact, got into it with one of them because he's married to a physician and she was very VERY adamant about every shot & booster.

can i prove it? no. am *I* getting older? yes. but that doesn't change the fact that 10 years ago i wasn't seeing any type of frequency of this in this age range.

frick everything about fauci and biden and the fact they tried to do everything in their power to force us to inject that poison into our veins.

It’s a very sad situation, but I doubt they’ll ever admit what’s going on and Trump isn’t pursuing it so they’ll just live the consequences rather than own up to it and try to fix anything.

Same thing happened to a friend’s wife who fits the description of your friends but she died from her stroke

You say this, but what is your definition of “overweight”? It’s a cliche on the health board for 5’10” guys who weigh 250 lbs to say that they “just need to lose 20 lbs.”

There haven’t been any studies showing a correlation between the shots and stroke increases, although having COVID itself does cause an increased risk of stroke.

Man that is terrible. I hope your friend can recover, that is hard. That is really really young to be having strokes.
If you confirm no family history of this, I think this is more than simple anecdotal evidence. 3 people in a friend circle within 1 year is crazy.

I'm so glad none of us took it. Now if we can only get rid of all the other mRNA vaccines they are trotting out.

We just need two weeks to flatten the curve.

It’s going to be a dark winter.

My mask protects you, your mask protects me.

What a time to be alive.

My sister in her early 30s was popping blood clots for two years and almost died on a flight as a result.

Shes definitely in the healthy BMI range and was running 10ks prior to covid/triple vax status without any family history or other contributing factors.

She still gets hilariously upset if anyone even implies it could be related to the vaccine so I think that’s going to be the status quo even though I assumed they’d eventually blame Trump as it was launched under his watch.

Many other bad things came from it than just the clots. I didn't take any of the jabs.

Right. I’ve seen the brochure.

But the study is exactly what he said didn’t exist.

ETA: does the study specify those are positive tests without a vaccination?

OK, but doesn't the study essentially find that "covid - rather via shot or infection - causes some increase in stroke risk"?
