Sure seems to be happening more frequently… it wouldn’t surprise me if it was from the shot but they’ll never tell us that.
Always unfortunate to read of the “unexpected” loss of yet another healthy person who was coerced or tricked into taking an experimental injection with ZERO long-term studies. I wish those expressing their condolences would “person-up” instead of wimping out.
Another loss to SADS (Sudden Adult Death Syndrome) caused by the jab. This will be happening more and more…watch for it.
What did he say about HILLARY?
Another victim of the “vaccine” shots?????
