Veteran folk singer Hana Horká died Sunday of COVID-19 after intentionally exposing herself to the virus in an ill-advised self-immunization attempt. She was 57 years old.
The Czech musician’s passing was confirmed by her son Jan Rek, who told Prague Morning that she “preferred to catch the disease than get vaccinated.”
SNIP
“I survived… It was intense,” Horká wrote in the post, according to local news outlets. “So now there will be the theater, sauna, a concert… and an urgent trip to the sea.” “Life is here for me and for you too,” she added.Two days later, the folk artist reportedly died due to coronavirus complications, with her son reporting that she “choked to death” within 10 minutes.

RIP.
The bluechecks will be celebrating on The Twittsewer...
That does not sound like a Covid death....
you know what is interesting?
when I visit liberal sites like this.. they all seems to know TONS of people who have died from Covid. They always claim they were “trumpers” and unvaxinated, and yet.. when I am here.. I almost NEVER hear conservatives say everyone they know is dropping like flies..
which you would assume conservatives would know and be friends more conservatives than a liberal would.
It’s just odd.
57 is looking old.
I agree, doesn’t sound like a covid death.
Call me skeptical, but to quote Shakespeare, “Something about this story doth stinketh”.
I know many people who have had covid - or at least tested-positive via PRC or home test. the worst I have heard from someone was that it was a bad flu which laid them up for 2 weeks. The young people I know who have had it weren't ill more than 48 hours
That one guy who writes for clownhall.com said between himself and one friend they know “dozens” of people who have died of coronavirus.
My son had a 44-year-old friend, father of 5, who died this week. Was in the hospital at Christmas, ICU by New Year’s. Left five children—15 to 5. Double vaxed and boosted. No co-morbidities. Liked to eat but not obese—healthy.
Concur. I see the same, and it makes no sense.
Had to go to halfway across the planet to find a single story of a person dying after deliberately catching covid.
Choking to death? Two years into this mess and how many people have described the deaths of loved ones from Covid as choking to death? Much more likely, the son wants to use his political disagreement with his mum and his grief as a talking point.
Interesting, NO information that she tried or prepared any of the several internationally known Covid therapies especially at first sign of symptoms.
You know what is odd, I personally know zero people who have died of COVID. And I know a lot of people. I don’t personally know anyone who has been hospitalized either.
they know people who died and they celebrate it.
Genius... not
choked to death? Was it respiratory failure? Was it a blood clot? We don’t know.
We know of no one who has died from it, but plenty who have gotten sick for a week or two, and then gotten over it. Do hear stories of the long haul folks who suffer shortness of breath afterwards.
I hear isolated stories of deaths, but no one we know.
We are vaccinated, but we don’t tempt fate. We wear masks in large crowds, but generally avoid large indoor crowds of any kind. I use an N-95. I would never deliberately “try” to get COVID. That’s just ill advised for anyone.
I feel one day we’re going to find some sort of genetic marker of some kind that makes certain people susceptible to this — what the hell type of disease is this where seemingly healthy people just up and croak, while my sister in law who has smoked since 13 and is prone to pneumonia only suffers for a few days?? None of it makes any sense - at least not at this point in time.
