Several nuns die after taking first shot of COVID vaccine

Several nuns die after taking first shot of COVID vaccine

Out of 35 nuns, 26 tested positive for COVID just two days after getting the vaccine.

VILLA HILLS, Kentucky, February 25, 2021 (LifeSiteNews) — Earlier this month, 35 nuns in a northern Kentucky convent received an mRNA-developed COVID-19 vaccine. Just two days later, two died and twenty six others tested positive for the virus.

Sister Aileen Bankemper, prioress of the Benedictine Sisters of St. Walburg, noted that the monastery was completely locked down, with no movement of people into or out of the premises for some time prior to having the sisters vaccinated: “We [the Benedictine community] were shocked to have so many [COVID-19] cases since we were being extremely careful, not going out, and not having visitors since the beginning of the pandemic,” Fox19 NOW reported. She even claimed that the sisters “redoubled our efforts after the [Christmas] holiday surge.”

Sister Aileen confirmed in a Facebook post, “Twenty-eight sisters tested positive for COVID-19,” following the jab. “The majority of them were able to get the monoclonal antibodies [antibody infusions] through St. Elizabeth’s Senior Services. Their symptoms are being managed pretty well,” she added.

Two of their members, however, Sister Charles Wolking and Sister Rita Biltz, quickly deteriorated, dying on February 3, two days after receiving their COVID jabs. Neither had expressed symptoms nor had tested positive for the virus prior to taking the vaccine.

Sub-Prioress Sister Nancy Kordenbrok told WKRC that “[b]oth of them were elderly and had some health issues and were not able to compete with COVID.”

At the time, a third sister, Margaret Mary Gough, was admitted to ICU at St. Elizabeth Fort Thomas Hospital with respiratory problems after testing positive for COVID-19 following her first dose of the vaccine.

Sister Nancy initially expressed hope that Sister Margaret Mary was recovering, saying that she is “[c]urrently in ICU, but we think she will be moved from there. She’s doing so much better. She had serious respiratory issues.”

But yesterday, through the monastery’s official Facebook page, she too was confirmed to have died, on February 10, “from complications of the COVID virus.” One other sister recovered in ICU and was able to return to the monastery.

In an apparent attempt to quell fears about the dangers of the vaccine, Dr. Steven Feagins, the Hamilton County public health director, explained that strong side-effects are “actually way more common than you might think.”

He added that, in cases where the patient suffers side-effects, he recommends simply delaying the second dose: “Whenever you get it, you get it, so we consider the 21 days [between jabs] minimum,” he said.

The remaining sisters are set to receive their second dose of the vaccine in May.

Since the launch of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine, the latest data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) has recorded a total of 929 deaths from December 15, 2020, up to February 12, 2021, accounting for almost 6% of 15,923 adverse events on the system’s report.

1,869 people were hospitalized, 616 of whom were considered to have suffered a life-threatening reaction.

Roughly 66.5 million doses have been administered in the U.S. of either one of the mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccinations offered by Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna. Both were given emergency use authorization by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in December, and, until they are fully licenced by the regulator, are considered experimental.

During LifeSiteNews’ “Unmasking COVID-19” conference, Dr. Sheri TenpennyDr. Eric Nepute and Dr. Pam Popper joined LifeSite’s Stephen Kokx in a panel discussion focused on the science regarding the vaccines, and whether it is right to regard them as the chief protection against COVID-19. The medics decried even calling the injections “vaccines,” since they did not meet the standards necessary for the term, and warned about the risk of the experimental products themselves attacking the body’s immune response system.

Tenpenny argued that the currently available vaccines do not merit the name vaccine since they don’t “meet any of the standards by which a vaccine is supposed to work: to prevent the spread of infection, to keep you from getting sick, to keep you from being hospitalized, to decrease the amount of illness, to protect people from this contagion that’s out there. It doesn’t meet any of those standards.”

Describing the vaccine manufacturers as having “skipped all the steps” of normal testing and development procedures, Popper noted that “we have no possible hope that this could actually be either safe or effective.”

The U.K.’s Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), which authorized the use of both the Pfizer-BioNTech and Oxford/AstraZeneca developed COVID vaccines for use in Britain, reported that, between December 8 and February 14, it “has received 197 U.K. reports of suspected ADRs to the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine in which the patient died shortly after vaccination, 205 reports for the Oxford University/AstraZeneca vaccine, and 4 where the brand of vaccine was unspecified.”

“The majority of these reports were in elderly people or people with underlying illness,” the MHRA added.

Italy, too, reported major health concerns regarding the AstraZeneca vaccine after the Tribuna di Treviso newspaper reported “dozens and dozens” of teachers and professors in the Treviso region were too ill to teach on Monday morning, having received the vaccine over the weekend. Consequently, two middle schools had to close during the week due to a lack of staff.

Despite the numerous side-effects reported by those who received the vaccine, Michele Mongillo, the director of prevention and public health for the Veneto Region maintained an optimistic position on the effect of AstraZeneca’s abortion-tainted vaccine: “We have begun the vaccination with AstraZeneca this week; there have been a few local reactions, especially fever. Over six thousand doses were given, and a few cases of local reactions were reported to our offices. It’s a temporary phenomenon, and on the bright side it shows that the immune system is reacting to the vaccine.”

Meanwhile, in France, the same AstraZeneca vaccine has caused so many adverse side-effects that the French vaccination task force (Conseil d’orientation de la stratégie vaccinale) has recommended “a staggering of the vaccination schedule for people working in the same care unit” as well as “the systematic intake of paracetamol just before the injection and in the two following days.”

Do you still wear a mask outside the hospital setting?

If so why?

Obviously they were infected prior to taking the vaccine. No mystery.

Why is all the expense and government push of supposed “vaccines” against an evolving virus being done at the expense of curative treatments?

It’s not a mystery when one actually reads the article.

Sure, but ask yourself, how probable?

Don’t you think a nun or nuns would be honest about that?

What do they have to gain by omitting facts that might explain how they got the virus?

Probably spread by pigeons, rabbits and squirrels who have unlimited access to the nunnery.

Hey, Doc! I just stepped in a pigeon dropping with my boots on!

How long do I have to live?

Please use common sense and explain the biological mechanism by which a vaccine that contains no virus could cause a viral infection.

But if you really need a source...

Do you have source of the Israeli study?

I find it hard to believe how they came up with such results in seven days?

It’s like saying, “I took an aspirin seven days ago and I didn’t catch the Wuhan flu!!!

The aspirin worked!

You gave a good explanation. My thought too.

Maybe this explanation will tell you how the RNA Messenger type vaccine works. After you read it, tell me how such a RNA Messenger could create the virus in the Transcription phase.

The blueprint RNA messenger is delivered into the cell inside a lipid nanoparticle.

When that lipid nanoparticle fuses onto a cell wall membrane, it releases the RNA Messenger into the cell, where the host cell’s ribosomes read the RNA instruction to trancribe the proteins that are exact copies of the C-viruis Spike Protein. These proteins are then presented on the surface of the host cell’s membrane where they bind to the MHC-1 and MHC-2 complex molecules. The MHC-1 complex is where these proteins attract T helper cells. Once in contact with these foreign proteins (which is what they are) there is an interaction with the T helper cells which trigger them to produce cytokines (interlukens) and memory cells. The interlukens attracts B-cells that produce plasma cells which act to produce antibodies that will bind on the C-virus’s Spike protein, whenever present (i.e; the virus’s Protein Spikes), neutralize them and destroy the virus that carries them. It is not known how long these specially programmed antibodies stay in the body. The memory cells, however, have a longer memory and will produce T-cells that are programmed to produce antibodies that will also attack any future C-virus’s Spike Proteins that enter the body aboard the C-virus.

Proteins on the host MHC-2 comlex molecule attract cytoxic T-cells that release destructive molecules that destroys the host cell ending all transcription of Spike Proteins.

My mother and father who are in their mid 80s both got the vaccine. My dad doesn’t seem to have had any ill effects, but my mother was knocked on her butt within a day or two, and has been a mess ever since. They were suppose to have had their second shots a few days ago, but were afraid the second set would kill my mom.

I respect the opinions of the doctors on the forum, but this is an experimental vaccine. Being a hazmat team leader for many years, I had about twice as many vaccinations than even most other firefighters... I never had anything more than a sore arm and a few aches and pains. I discouraged my parents from getting the vaccine because we live in a hot spot and I believed that they had been exposed to Covid last Spring after being with friends who got sick and they came down with symptoms as well. I assumed that they and my wife and I had already been exposed and most likely already developed antibodies the natural way.

Have received both Pfizer shots. No reaction at all. Not even a sore arm. My wife had a short reaction, mostly to second shot. We are 80 and 81.

If forced, (ie. tied down) I’d take the J&J, or even the Chinese 50%
effective traditional vaccines, before I would choose either of these MRNA
“Vaccines”. It’s criminal subterfuge to even call these tools vaccines.

Perhaps they can move this technology to achieve actual traditional
vaccine efficacy some day, but this ain’t it.

These are more like programmed symptom treaters, than immunity
conferring vaccines.

(And shockingly untested, at that.)

“They were NOT China flu positive, when they received the experimental ‘vax’.”

Which means nothing. I was told to wait one week after exposure to take a covid test.

“The soaking time for the bug is at least 3 days.”

There is an up to 30 day latency time from exposure. Sister Aileen Bankemper doesn’t have or isn’t telling the whole story.

No movement of people? The janitors? Cooks? Housekeeping? The two that died were severely sick with other health problems.......with no doctor or nurse support “for some time”?

Come on Sister Eileen......
