William Shakespeare, the second person in the world to get the Pfizer-BioNTech covid-19 vaccine jab died due to an unrelated illness. The 81-year-old had made global headlines on December 8 after received his first Covid vaccine in December at University Hospital Coventry after 90-year-old British grandmother Margaret Keenan, the first person to receive a vaccine shot out of clinical trials.
Reporters were quick to note that Coventry is located 20 miles from Stratford-Upon-Avon, the birthplace of his namesake, England’s greatest dramatist and poet. Shakespeare, a former Rolls Royce employee and parish councillor, died at the same hospital — University Hospital Coventry– after a prolonged illness, the Daily Mail reported.
Coventry councillor Jayne Innes, and a friend of Shakespeare in a Facebook post on Monday said: “Bill will be remembered for many things, including a taste for mischief,” and added the “best tribute to Bill is to have the jab”.
Shakespeare who was an inpatient on the hospital’s frailty ward at the time of his first jab had said he was “pleased” to be given the jab and the hospital staff had been “wonderful.”
The Allesley resident had been a parish councillor for 30 years, of which he was chairman of the parish council for 20 years. In addition, he had served as a governor at Allesley Primary and Coundon Court schools and was proud to be from Coventry, said Innes.

Wonder how many people these days know that the first line is 1 Corinthians 15:55 and not the Bard.
Yes, and now he’s a symbol of “white supremacy” all of a sudden.
Shakespeare wasn’t above stealing a good line (I knew it was biblical but couldn’t have told you the exact source)
Something is rotten in the state of Denmark.
LOL
Et tu, Covid?
As predicted by soothsayers.
There's the shame about what goes on in the country. With everything, socialist/globalists declare themselves "experts" (often times in direct conflict with reality), make a statement about what the "facts" are(often times in direct conflict with reality), then use that they are "experts" to shut down any counter argument against what ever their stance on a topic is (often times in direct conflict with reality). You are not allowed to question the "experts" about anything; the origin of the China virus, the efficacy of masks and various treatments of said virus, what a man or woman is, what drives the climate, possible election fraud, the list goes on and on.
How old was he in the rest of the world?
Nice!
“Then what could death do, if thou shouldst depart” — William Shakespeare.
Of course, Shakespeare also possibly translated the Book of Psalms for the King James Bible... but I’ve seen this theory credibly disparaged lately.
