Country Singer John Rich Lashes Out at Pfizer Amid Jamie Foxx Vaccine Rumor
Newsweek ^ | 6/7/23 | Ryan Smith

Posted on 06/07/2023 2:25:18 PM PDT by nickcarraway

Country music star John Rich has lashed out at Pfizer amid unsubstantiated rumors that Jamie Foxx was left "paralyzed and blind" by a COVID-19 vaccine.

In early April, it was revealed that Oscar-winning Ray star Foxx, 55, had been hospitalized after an unspecified "medical complication." Following weeks of speculation, his daughter, Corinne Foxx, shared in a statement that he was out of the hospital and "recuperating" but his health status remains unknown.

After TMZ reported that the screen star's relatives were spotted visiting him in a Chicago physical rehabilitation facility, on May 30 podcast host and gossip columnist A.J. Benza claimed to know exactly what happened to Foxx, citing his source as "somebody in the room.

Appearing on the Ask Dr. Drew podcast, Benza said: "Jamie had a blood clot in his brain after he got the shot. He did not want the shot, but the movie he was on, he was pressured to get it. The blood clot in the brain caused him at that point to be partially paralyzed and blind."

The claim has been fact checked by Newsweek, and was found to be wholly unverified, but the rumor has still gone viral online with a number of reputable Twitter users circulating it.

One will trust Mr. Benza before one trusts Newsweek.

So there.

Note that the best they could do is “wholly unverified”. NOT denied, just can’t get any one close to talk.

I’m speculating that those with non type O blood have 35% more of the von Willebrand’s Clotting factor VIII and are thus more susceptible to these dangerous blood clots.

“Unsubstantiated” rumors, eh?
If they are later “substantiated”, any bets on how NewsWEAK will cover it?
QED

‘amid unsubstantiated rumors that Jamie Foxx was left “paralyzed and blind”’

Well, just trot out a non-blind, non-paralyzed Jamie Foxx and put those rumors to rest then.

Or is there some reason that won’t happen?

He was a good enough actor to play a blind man when he had sight, so who says he’s not good enough to play a sighted man if he’s blind?

I’m willing to give him a chance.

Has to be the vaccine because no middle aged ex alchohilc and drug addict has ever suffered a stroke. Conspiracy believers are sooo hungry for *ANY*thing that will seemingly validate their beliefs.

Truth deniers are sooo hungry for *ANY*thing that will seemingly validate their beliefs.

Deny the surge in strokes, brain injuries, and heart problems from the Jim Jones Jab at your peril.
