Death of Kentucky woman who received COVID-19 vaccine reported to VAERS

A Kentucky woman, 59, passed away on Dec. 21, 2021 after receiving the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine, according to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS).

She was one of the 32 who died after receiving a COVID-19 vaccine in Kentucky by Jan. 17.

Fatalities in America among the vaccinated in 2021 have increased 76.05 percent from the previous decade.

Before 2021, the most devastating year on record for fatalities after receiving a vaccine was 2010, when 143 people died.

Peter A. McCullough, a respected cardiologist and epidemiologist, initially supported the rollout of vaccines but is now an avid opponent of the COVID-19 vaccines.

“It’s my judgement at this point in time that the vaccine is the cause of death in a majority of cases,” he claimed in an interview. “I think it’s fine for people to change their view of the vaccine and they should based on emerging data.”

All deaths which occur after a COVID-19 vaccination was administered must be investigated, as required by the Emergency Use Authorization given by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The EUA allowed COVID-19 vaccines to be distributed so quickly.

The FDA has approved three vaccines: Pfizer-BioNTech for ages 5 and up, Moderna for ages 12 and up and Johnson & Johnson vaccines for ages 18 and up.

A previously published report from Harvard Pilgrim Health Care, Inc. found adverse events from drugs and vaccines are “common, but underreported.”

“Low reporting rates preclude or slow the identification of ‘problem’ drugs and vaccines that endanger public health,” the report stated.

The VAERS system, by admission of its creators, does not fully indicate the situation of someone’s death.

“A report to VAERS generally does not prove that the identified vaccine(s) caused the adverse event described. It only confirms that the reported event occurred sometime after vaccine was given,” says a disclaimer on the VAERS website.

Statistics represented in the story and corresponding graph differ slightly due to streamlined data collection.
