    MIAMI BEACH, Fla. – Questions remain in the death of a 56-year-old Miami Beach doctor who died Sunday, just a little over two weeks after receiving the COVID-19 vaccine, our sister station WPLG-TV in Miami reported.

    Gregory Michael, M.D., whose website states he was in private practice in obstetrics and gynecology at Mount Sinai Medical Center, received the vaccine at the hospital where he was affiliated on Dec. 18.

    His wife said that three days after getting the shot, Michael noticed severe broken blood vessels on his feet and hands, prompting him to go the emergency room.

    There, he was diagnosed with immune thrombocytopenia, which prevents blood from clotting. After two weeks of treatment, she writes on the Facebook post, Michael had a hemorrhagic stroke caused by the lack of platelets, which took his life in a matter of minutes, she said.

    I googled the condition he was diagnosed with and it is something that often resolves itself and otherwise seems to be a condition that often can be lived with. The severity of his condition (enough to kill him) is apparently odd in itself, but symptoms developing 3 days after getting the Pfizer jab is disturbing, to say the least.

    no link to the vaccine yet, but they are investigating, if it is a rare complication, hopefully they can figure out whom it will affect, and why, but too soon to jump to conclusions and as so many have already taken, and this is the first person this was seen in, I still plan to get it

    Wow!

    Millions of COVID vaccine jabs and now TWO of those millions have died days or weeks later?

    While 3000 per DAY of people die of COVID and a 100,000 per DAY get seriously ill of COVID?

    Oh yes, definately, the fact that TWO deaths per TWO WEEKS of the vaccine is an important reason to stop the vaccines!!!

    Are anti-Vax partisans NUTS?

    Pfizer COVID Vaccine Kills Healthy Miami Beach Doctor

    An obstetrician from Miami Beach, Florida, has died from complications after receiving the COVID-19 vaccine. Dr. Gregory Michael’s wife, Heidi Neckelmann, posted a lengthy message on her Facebook page January 6, 2021, announcing her husband’s death and blaming it on the vaccine.

    In the post, she begged the Facebook community to “not let his death be in vain” ... “by making this information news," and thereby saving lives.

    “He was vaccinated with the Pfizer vaccine at MSMC on December 18, 3 days later he saw a strong set of petechiae on his feet and hands which made him seek attention at the emergency room at MSMC,” Neckelmann said in her post.

    “He was admitted in the ICU with a diagnosis of acute ITP caused by a reaction to the COVID vaccine. A team of expert doctors tried for 2 weeks to raise his platelet count to no avail. Experts from all over the country were involved in his care. No matter what they did, the platelets count refused to go up. He was conscious and energetic through the whole process but 2 days before a last resort surgery, he got a hemorrhagic stroke caused by the lack of platelets that took his life in a matter of minutes.

    “He was a pro vaccine advocate that is why he got it himself. I believe that people should be aware that side effects can happened, that it is not good for everyone and in this case destroyed a beautiful life, a perfect family, and has affected so many people in the community.”

    Mainstream news outlets began publishing news of Michael’s death late January 6, 2021.

    Naturally, the pharmaceutical company that made the vaccine contests the charges:

    Pfizer responded with a statement that they are aware of it “but we don’t believe at this time that there is any direct connection to the vaccine. There is no indication – either from large clinical trials or among people who have received the vaccine since the government authorized its use last month – that it could be connected to thrombocytopenia.”

    Anti-vax partisans are whatever you want them to be Dave, because they exist only as a propaganda term, they exist only in your fevered mind.

    Moderation in all things is one of those concepts you never quite grasped.

    Technically, there are some, like myself, who believe that all vaccines cause more harm than good. However, there are also many who believe that some vaccines are beneficial, of which I believe you are one. We can agree to disagree on some vaccines while agreeing on others.
