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

Posted on 07/30/2021 11:54:22 PM PDT by Sixgun Symphony

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.’

“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.”

The chances of a fully vaccinated person dying from Covid is .0008: https://nypost.com/2021/07/30/cdc-data-shows-vaccinated-face-small-risk-of-serious-breakthrough-covid-19-infections/. Using your statistics, an unvaccinated 28 year old has a .3% chance of dying from Covid, which is 375 times greater than the fully vaccinated person.

That’s great. It is also great not to ‘piss on’ a young man’s grave and gleefully boast Darwin Award when is not fundamentally irrational to skip getting a vaccine at 28 years old.

"All the JAB pushers have one."

I did not say a single word about the "jab". In fact, I am very much anti-jab. I'm just trying to provide something that had been very rare of the past couple of years ... unvarnished truth with absolutely no agenda.

I know - you - are not dancing on one’s grave. Did not mean for my comment imply you were. This first comment on the thread is what I was pointing to. I don’t mind push back with facts on both sides.

Meds? Since when did anti-vaxxers start trusting modern medicine rather than their crackpot conspiracy theories?

Most people who believe the Earth is flat consider themselves to be ‘very religious and think evidence of the world’s shape is found in scripture’

This is why most anti-vaxxers trust bunko faith healers rather than modern medicine.

Actually this story came from Britain, not the USA, not the Democratic Party. No “crisis actors”.

Next time pay attention.

...this need for personal safety above all other things with that safety guaranteed...
________________________________

This is a huge part of the sales pitch for the AI personal assistants, the doorbell camera systems, the various tracking apps, the integral GPS for cars, the exercise bracelets/watches that come with incentives. All part of the Panopticon surveillance.

People pay for their own surveillance, the reactions to the injections (I understand health insurance doesn’t cover all the tests that mostly come back *normal*) and it was planned that they would pay for the injections indirectly via taxes and total immunity from liability.

Not even considering the government-advised high carb diets, the constant ads for drugs with horrendous side effects and little benefit. Trying to make NAC prescription-only. Censoring any MD who advises Vit. D & C supplementation, prohibiting treatments in the early stages (except those with pharma patents)...it just goes on & on.

Maybe there are no conspiracies, but there are very few coincidences, and definitely not as many *rare* ones such as we are seeing right now, in real time.

It is a bad cold virus. Seems to be filtering out the week, infirm, and obese. They still arent publishing on a regular basis the categories of the newly dead. Obese, immunosuppressed, co infected, precautionary measures taken, age, severity of underlying condition, treatment, clinical hallmarks, etc. Disgusting waste of opportunity for knowledge. ALL vaccine, ALL the time is NOT a prescription for success.

I am not antivaxxer. Have taken many immunization injections...not “jabs”.
You better be careful if you trust modern medicine. Just spend 3 days in a hospital...see how many of your sincere questions are answered with the “we don’t know” answer.

Now I KNOW you are a liberal 'sleeper account' troll.

No, the religious, of which many are here, don't think the Earth is flat. Point to an absurd Daily Mail strawman article is not a reasonable citation.

You need to have your 'sleeper troll account' terminated.

“They have been caught hiring actors for this crap”

For now, yes actors. Once the CGI is good enough, it will just be a propaganda cartoon...no actors needed

Oh I’m so sorry I died from the virus, when I could have gotten the vaccine, and died from the virus, or from the side effects of the vaccine. Boo Hoo.

You’re welcome. The point I wanted to make was, the tyrannical do-gooders want to lump together everyone who has concerns about this as ignorant, contrarian, “anti-vaxxer” Luddites, and we shouldn’t be.

The people who ARE “anti-vaxxer” have valid concerns about these vaccines, their creation, and testing.

Those who take issue with the tyrannical deprivation of livelihoods and societal effects of isolation and masking have valid concerns that the causes of this pathogen do not rise to that level.

And those who have serious Constitutional concerns about a government that is willing to force its citizens to submit to an invasive, under-tested medical procedure is not warranted by the danger to society, if it ever could be.
