Major League Baseball hall-of-famer Hank Aaron died today. He was 86. According to CBS 46:
Hall of Famer and one-time home run king Atlanta Braves legend Henry Louis “Hank” Aaron passed away this morning at the age of 86, CBS46 has learned. He leaves behind an indelible legacy on and off the baseball diamond.
There are no reports in mainstream media about how the slugger died, but it’s conspicuous that he was given the COVID-19 vaccine earlier this month. It was highly publicized at the time because he did it on camera as a way to encourage African-Americans to take the vaccine.
According to TMZ:
Hank Aaron got his COVID vaccine shot on Tuesday — and he did it in front of cameras in the hopes of inspiring other Black Americans to follow his lead. The 86-year-old Hall of Famer masked up and went to the Morehouse School of Medicine in Atlanta along with his wife Billye to receive the first of two doses of the Moderna vaccine.
“[It] makes me feel wonderful,” Aaron told the Associated Press … “I don’t have any qualms about it at all … I feel quite proud of myself for doing something like this. … It’s just a small thing that can help zillions of people in this country.”
An alarming number of people have died within days or weeks after taking the vaccine. The elderly, who are most susceptible to the coronavirus, seem to be most at risk from the vaccine as well. Hank Aaron took the vaccine on January 5th.

Well, that should make his fellow men just want to rush right out and get the shot!
Did you hear that, Arnold? Come with me if you want to die.
He never enjoyed his status as a legend. He was a very angry and hateful man. It was a shame because I loved him as a boy, and I still think he was very different in his playing years before all that crap chasing Ruth’s record.
So he got his shot so he’d live, only to die from it.
It appears COVID deaths are going to take a severe downturn.
How many vaccine trial participants were 86 yr old?
Well, at least one...now
RIP ...done in by political correctness

I can somewhat understand black people who are bitter about what they endured.
But today’s blacks act as if it’s still like it was in Aaron’s time.
The article didn’t say that he died from the shot?
Why do you assume he died from the shot?
no one knows yet what he died of..
even if it was a heart attack there is no way to know if the body’s response to the vax caused it.
I doubt they do an autopsy.
It doesn’t matter...most blacks will think that’s EXACTLY what happened.
From what I’ve seen it’s not just Black people who are suspicious of the vaccine.
Precisely why the wife (82) & I (87) will not get the vaccine...
If I was a tinfoil hat wearer, I’d say that the ruling communists are giving priority to old folks in order to get rid of them...
Purge all those who have some memory of what patriotism, freedom, liberty, and love of country meant 60-to-80-years ago...
Also, purging them all may reduce Medicare costs so all non-Caucasians and the illegal alien vermin can receive it from birth...
Even if he died “with” Covid vaccine, it still counts as a vaccine death if we want to be consistent.
Interesting. Methinks humanity has yet to fully grasp the nature of the human immune response.
Not to mention pension and social security benefits.
Except for Bill Gates. He knows everything.
The Tuskegee Experiment and now this—good luck getting black folks to take whitey’s vaccine now.
