Mum reveals anti-vaxxer’s regret-filled final words as he died from Covid
Metro ^ | 7/26/2021 | Jessica Kwong

A mother has revealed her son’s last words as he succumbed to coronavirus.

Curt Carpenter, 28, believed the pandemic was not real and his entire family was hesitant about getting vaccinated.

That was until Curt, his younger sister Cayla, and mother Christy all contracted the virus in early March.

Initially their symptoms were mild, but their oxygen levels dropped and both Curt and Christy were admitted to hospital in Birmingham, Alabama, where they developed pneumonia.

Curt’s lung collapsed, his oxygen levels fluctuated and his organs began shutting down before he died on May 2.

Nearly three months on, Christy has spoken about her son’s death, revealing that his final words were: ‘This is not a hoax; this is real’.

She told the Washington Post that they were nervous about the vaccine because it was created so quickly.

She said: ‘It took watching my son die and me suffering the effects of Covid for us to realize we need the vaccine. ‘We did not get vaccinated when we had the opportunity and regret that so much now.’

Just more ludicrous conspiracy theories from the anti-vaxxer lunatics.

Sadly the young man was obese. The obese will succumb to Covid.

Covid and Obesity morbidity rates

Among 148,494 adults who received a COVID-19 diagnosis during an emergency department (ED) or inpatient visit at 238 U.S. hospitals during March–December 2020, 28.3% had overweight and 50.8% had obesity.

A member of the XiJinBiden’s ‘50¢ Army’, or the CCP’s ‘50¢ Army’? Inquiring minds want to know.

Tell us- Did they get HCQ or Ivermectin early on? So many people who die do so because they cannot get either of those.

Sounds familiar. If it isn't bots it is people being exploited for propaganda.

‘Darwin Award’? You sound like a kind person - glad you are on Freerepublic to represent. A 28 year old, which according to the CDC has a 99.7% chance of survival decides not to get an unapproved treatment and falls from the disease and the just as ‘kind’ media makes a story of it.

If your genetic therapy works, you shouldn’t have to worry about who else has taken it - it should protect you. Oh wait, it doesn’t?

Who is the Darwin Award winner now, genius?

Keep your buyers remorse. Some of us can actually think without input from the “government”.

Possible factors in this sad story:

Obesity / morbid obesity

Genetic predisposition, possibly by means of having a higher number of ACE2 receptors than average.

Low Vit D

Low Vit C
