BILLINGS - A Yellowstone County woman in her 50s has died of COVID-19 complications after she was previously vaccinated, RiverStone Health officials announced Tuesday.

The woman had an underlying health condition that may have made the vaccine less effective, according to RiverStone. She died Monday, June 7 in a Billings hospital.

She was the first person in Yellowstone County to die of COVID-19 complications following vaccination, according to Pat Zellar, a RiverStone spokesperson.

RiverStone officials said the woman's death underscores the importance of widespread vaccination among county residents. People with compromised immune systems, including cancer patients and organ transplant recipients, may find the vaccine less effective, meaning reduced community spread is the best way to protect them, according to RiverStone.

“We have very vulnerable community members whose health depends on all eligible people getting vaccinated,” said John Felton, Yellowstone County health officer and president and CEO of RiverStone Health in a statement. “I offer my deepest sympathy to the victim’s family and friends. This tragic death is a stark reminder that everyone age 12 and older should get vaccinated, not only to protect themselves, but also to safeguard their family members and neighbors from this highly contagious virus.”

Overall, the Moderna and Pfizer two-dose vaccines have been proven 95% effective at preventing infection, illness and death from COVID-19, according to RiverStone.

The woman had an underlying health condition that may have made the vaccine less effective...

Obesity, maybe?

If so, does this mean the public health flunky didn't know or care enough to get a longer needle to ensure the vaxx was administered properly...?

Why weren't primary care providers, the people who know their patients best, allowed to offer these vaccines?

The link to the article is dead, so you don’t know how long after she received the vaccine before she was exposed to covid. Like the flu vaccine, it takes 10 days to two weeks for the covid vaccine to be effective.

I might be Q? You might be antifa, you might be Dr. Fauci’s step-son. Pulling something out of your ass and saying it “might” be true or “could” be true is a favorite tactic of the MSM.

She didn’t die of the virus, she died of the vax.

It seems like the conversations are getting uglier and uglier these days.

I think the numbers and the continued missed dates of bodies everywhere are not panning out for the Anti-Covid-Vaxxers………

Of course now we’re up to what? 10 years we’ll all die from the vaccine.
