A viral message on social media claims that Tiffany Dover, the nurse in Tennessee, United States, who fainted after receiving her first dose of the Pfizer/BioNTech Covid-19 vaccine, is now dead.

This has been claimed by several websites, and many Twitter and Facebook users.

Some suspect a conspiracy behind the Covid-19 vaccine as they believe the nurse died after vaccination. One such Facebook claim says, "The nurse who fainted after the Pf1zer \//\cc1ne died 10 hours later. Did you find this story in mainstream media....anywhere....? Of course we aren't we being told the vaccines k1ll us...it's part of the plan?"

India Today Anti Fake News War Room (AFWA) has found that Tiffany is alive. The hospital she works in released a video to show she's doing well.

Who is Tiffany Dover?

Tiffany Dover is a critical care nurse at Catholic Health Initiatives Memorial Hospital in Chattanooga, Tennessee, US. On December 17, 2020, she fainted on live television after receiving a shot of the Covid vaccine developed by Pfizer.

But this was not due to the vaccine. Tiffany later clarified on television channels that she has a medical condition wherein she is susceptible to fainting whenever she feels any pain.

"I have a history of having an over-reactive vagal response, and so with that if I have pain from anything, hangnail or if I stub my toe, I can just pass out," she said in an interview with news channel WRCB.

The CHI Memorial Hospital had issued a statement saying that the hospital had administered the vaccine to six individuals, three physicians, and three nurses from the hospital on the same day (December 17).

This is the problem I am running into:

“The CHI Memorial Hospital recently posted a video of Tiffany along with other hospital staff on Twitter saying that she is doing well.”

When? Video from when? Can we see the video? Apparently some people question the video. Why hasn’t some reporter with a recorder gone to her home or her work and said hey, yo, everyone says maybe you are deceased, comment ::))?? Impossible that this has not happened. Fricken reporter’s wet dream to get this footage.

“On December 19, the hospital had put up an update on Twitter saying, “Nurse Tiffany Dover appreciates the concern shown for her. She is home and doing well. She asks for privacy for her and her family.”

Share the tweet already. I’d like to parse it and see what the heck it actually says. Certainly if that were the tweet it would have been followed by many, many, others.

“Lisa McCluskey, vice-president of marketing communications at CHI Memorial Hospital confirmed to the Associated Press that Tiffany was doing well and working a shift at the hospital on Monday.”

When. Which Monday, the 14th or the 21st or? She is doing well and working a shift at the hospital on Monday, was this talking about the scheduled shift or a shift currently being worked?

She was allegedly a vaccination proponent. The probabilities she would just be off the radar for over a month are miniscule.

You would think that CNN, ABC, NBC, or any media outlet would ask her to come on air and put a rest to the controversy and then go on to have her say, “There is a lot of disinformation out there but here I am (big smile) to tell you this vaccine is safe and I am doing fantastic.” “So get out there and get in line.”

This one was very interesting to me.

“Tiffany later clarified on television channels that she has a medical condition wherein she is susceptible to fainting whenever she feels any pain. “

No date. No reference. It turns out that apparently this was a reference to her speaking the same day after the fact to several media outlets that she was okay and was.... Complete misdirection. It was not numerous television channels reporting over several days. Several media outlets were reporting her immediate after encounter remarks.

Yes, actually, proof of life would be great.

If you take an experimental vaccine, and the whole world watches as you then fall down unconscious, then absolutely yes, proof of life.

Not an unreasonable request given the totality of the circumstances.

Secret Agent Man,

Looks like my questions are not finding a receptive audience. But, until I see her on TV talking to one of a thousand different reporters who would love this story, I have questions.

We all should.

Yes that video looks very, very, questionable.
