Did Bre Payton Die From the Flu Vaccine?

Bre Payton, a-year-old political writer and TV commentator, died suddenly on Friday, a day after being hospitalized with H1N1 swine flu, her friends and employer said.

A staff writer at The Federalist and frequent guest on Fox News, Payton was found “unresponsive and barely breathing” Thursday morning by a friend and was rushed to a San Diego hospital, according to a CaringBridge fundraising page set up for her.

If Payton died from meningitis, which can cause sudden death, she likely had a weakened immune system, which could have been caused by influenza. It is unclear whether Payton received the flu vaccine though the only post that we can find about the subject was sarcastically critical of the industry:

“State urges more people to get vaccinated. ///// NOOO ! vaccines are from the devil.”

...... the flu vaccine is not a panacea and may actually cause complications that lead to serious disease and even death if ignored. On the other hand, the flu vaccine does prevent the flu and its secondary infections 10-to-40 percent of the time.

If Payton did not get the vaccine, it’s possible that it could have saved her life. If she did get the vaccine–on the other hand–it’s possible that it actually contributed to her death. That is the paradox of a life-saving medical treatment with serious side effects.

Payton was a California native and went to Western Christian High school. A 2015 profile published on Patrick Henry College’s website described Payton as such: “She’s striking; her Valley Girl accent adds an unexpected tension to a dry sense of humor and she carries herself with Californian nonchalance. While she’s not always sure of herself, she’s always succeeded due to hard work and an appreciation for opportunities that come her way.”

It was 3 years ago this Dec 26 that my husband’s cousin’s 25-year-old healthy daughter died from the flu (she had no flu shot). Like the Spanish flu, the H1N1 strain affects the young and healthy the most. She had been in the hospital with it for 2 days. She seemed to be recovering and they released her. 36 hours later she took a turn for the worse and died.

I think the question is perhaps WHY Bre was killed. She published a negative article about Comey 10 days before her death:

Sorry to hear about this girl’s death. You are correct that the H1N1 Flu is a variant of the 1918 Spanish Flu that attacks mostly young people, especially the prime ages of 24-26.

I haven’t been the same since my last flu shot. Oct 22, and the arm still hurts, I have no energy, and mental focus is difficult.

Then there are the physical issues: bleeding gums, everything tastes awful, and inexplicable weight gain.

Never again

[a little elbow grease]

One thing that has been somewhat troubling about FR in the last several years is the emergence of a visceral hostility toward alternative media and citizen’s journalism... ----

Do you think that may be because so many of the alternative media and citizen journalist articles are ludicrous click bait drivel like this one? Or is there something larger and more sinister at play?

Good luck.

The vaccine industry is do gooders from HELL seeking profits over lives

How many vaccines do they want to force you to have now ? 41

There is a lot of conflicting information out there.

[upchuck]

My sympathy to Bre’s family during this trying time. Prayers for them.

More on topic, never had a flu shot, never had the flu. My MD still asks every year, “Want a flu shot?” I say, “Why do you even ask me that question?” He grins and marks me down as a No.

[metmom]

I’m not actively working towards it.

That survival instinct is very strong in this one.

And thanks for the vote of confidence.

...WHY DON'T YOU ASK the poster (TheConservativeBanker) who wrote that?

Fair enough, I had meant to include you both in my reply.

I just thought that since you were enthusing over the perspective and wisdom of the poster's comment you might have an opinion.

Or do you leave that up to those lower-IQ, lesser FReepers?

[Lazamataz]

No.

"I just thought that since you were enthusing over the perspective and wisdom of the poster's comment you might have an opinion."

_______________

You refer to what I wrote previously: "The knee-jerking on this thread is bizarre and causes me to wonder about the general IQ's of some of the FReepers."

As you can see I did not say any FReepers had lower IQ's or were "lesser", as you write.

I only WONDERED about their intelligence because of their hostile remarks. 'Wondering about' something and 'proclaiming something to be true' are two very different things.

And I do appreciate your nearly subtle sarcasm, I really do.

[TheConservativeBanker]

I despise clickbait as much as anyone. However, I don’t see the same level of vitriol directed at obvious drivel from more “respectable” media outlets. Trashy journalism is trashy journalism regardless of the outlet. Yet, I rarely see the same snarky dismissals of MSM articles used to start discussion threads here.

"It’s a different level of scare tactic when they want to give them to your kids.

I think I’ve had maybe a dozen or so shots as a kid, and maybe another dozen since."

About the same here. I got the old air gun over and over again at Fort Dix in '69 .... walking down the line.

****

But these children today look to me like a giant lab experiment.

I will try yo be more careful. ---

It's totally fine.

If I ever figure out how to put words into italics, confusion may be avoided.

You really must think other FReepers are stupid if you expect us to buy that oily BS.

— I saw that this morning at The Federalist ....but don’t believe there is a connection as you suggest.

My wife (68) went to the doctor on Thursday. He asked her the same question.

She's never had one .... still doesn't.

Personally, I know near nothing about this science, but I know there is a great deal of disagreement on the issue.
