Anti-vaccine couple, in their 40s, die from COVID-19 and leave behind five kids: Husband repents on deathbed 'Mom, I love you and I wish that I'd got the shot'

A Virginia couple in their 40s who refused pleas from their family to get the COVID-19 vaccine because they read misinformation online passed away from the disease within two weeks of each other, leaving behind five children and an infant grandson.

High school sweethearts Kevin, 48, and Misty Mitchem, 46, regretted not taking the vaccine just before they died, according to their bereaved loved ones.

Misty Mitchem, a medical transcriptionist by trade, declined to get the shot even though she had diabetes.

'He called me up [from the hospital] and said, "Mom, I love you and I wish that I’d got the shot",' Kevin's mother, Terry Mitchem, told NBC Washington.

'Of course I told him, "It's past. You can't do anything about it".'

The couple is survived by their four young children: Riley, 17; Leah, 14; and twins Taylor and Aiden, 11.

Kevin Mitchem had one daughter, Angel, 22, from a previous relationship. Angel is the mother of Lincoln, who will turn two in November.

High school sweethearts Kevin, 48, and Misty Mitchem, 46, of Stafford Count, Virginia, regretted not taking the vaccine just before they died, according to their bereaved loved ones. Misty died on September 23. Kevin passed away on October 8.

Kevin Mitchem is survived by an adult child from a previous relationship and four young children from his marriage to Misty.

After their parents’ deaths, the four younger children went to live with an aunt and uncle in South Carolina, according to Kevin’s brother, Mike Mitchem of Spotsylvania County, Virginia.

'Both our families have been turned upside down,' Mike Mitchem told the Richmond Times-Dispatch.

“I am quite sure that hospitals are being told to abandon the non vaccinated who test positive to their own fate.”

If you take some basic common sense approaches to the illness, you’ll be far better off on your own than the Remdesivir lethal injection they give most.

I had it and never took a day off from work (remotely working).

That makes the most sense both from a medical point of view and a civil liberties view.

Yes...it makes both common sense, and it is in line with our principles as American Citizens.

I am astonished that we have nearly destroyed our economy and the society it is encompassed in, for...this.

Furthermore, as sure as God made little green apples, we are inviting further biological warfare.

Our enemies, for all their faults, can often do one thing very well-they can spot weakness. And now that they have seen what normally reasonable people are willing to sacrifice to buy a little safety, their malignancy will know no bounds.

We should be clear eyed about what this has done in this respect. Especially proxies for those enemies, who would even far more malignant and be all too willing to sacrifice themselves to infect.

“At that point....”

NFN, but they do-see-doed past that point almost two years ago.

That said, your point is well taken.

Also amazing is that not a single dead person quoted to have said this, or something similar, have come forward to deny that they said it.

If such an allegation were false, you would expect the dead person in question to re-animate for at least a minute or two to disabuse us of the notion that they are unprincipled nincompoops.

Tranquilizers and ventilators.

Stay away from hospitals.

I can attest to that entirely.

I worked and am still working as a porter in a hospital ER during this and while last year we had quite a number of Covid cases it was not the zombie apocalypse the media loves to make it out to be.

There was no mention of any treatment at all. Not even to take aspirin to help prevent clotting.

The 'healthcare' provider is following the standard NIH/CDC CoVID Death Protocol that Kaiser Health follows as well. Test and send home .... removes the short window for early treatment with HCQ / ivermectin / etc that mostly prevents hospitalization. $50k - that's how much healthcare providers lose unless the patient is hospitalized. This is why Dr. Zelenko has 1 death per thousand with early treatment, instead of double- or triple-digit deaths by CDC protocol.

Same here. I was somewhat open (but hesitant) about vaccinations last winter. The hard sell, manipulation, deceit and obscuration of true data (about the shot and therapeutics), emotional reporting, shilling/ridicule across social media, mandates, and threats, has made me completely against it.

If they wanted to convince people, they would just talk numbers. But they don’t, because they can’t. The real numbers are not in their favor. So they ridicule and threaten.

I put it under the heading of “Crimes against humanity.”

Even without HCQ/ivermectin there are early treatment options that can be done at home at small expense. Gargles, expectorants, percussion massages, steamy showers(like for a baby with croup) vitamins, O2 monitoring, sunshine, moderate exercise, steroids, antibiotics.

All can be supervised by a physician on an outpatient basis. The main goal is to KEEP THE LUNGS HEALTHY SO THAT PNEUMONIA DOES NOT DEVELOP. Being put on a ventilator as the first order of treatment pretty much guarantees pneumonia and various other bacterial infections. Not to mention the added stress caused by isolation. The current protocols are deadly to many people. And that is not by accident.

You are welcome. To many of us, it is all about the excessive dangerous power of government.

Never too timid to use a deathbed comment for propaganda.

Colin Powell got the shots. Did he tell his mom how sorry
he was? Some folks would like to know.

(his mom may be dead, but the counter-point is made)

i generally agree with your last bottom line statement

with the caveat i don’t want anything forced on anyone who doesn’t want it, people gave to determine their own kedical risks without one “choice” resulting in punitive treatment and penalites by society

because then its just bullying and govt coercion

and that’s not a real choice, its under duress and fear of threats by a govt with essentially infinite resources to throw at you

I know a doctor who shared an opinion piece from another doctor saying it was hard to be compassionate to people who did not take the vaccine. Can you even imagine anyone changing that and saying that it is hard to show compassion to someone with AIDS who chose not to wear a condom?

I have antibodies. What the hell happened to natural immunity? Can you prove that I am at greater risk?
