    Singer Dies After Deliberately Catching COVID-19 So She Could Obtain A Recently-Recovered Pass (msn.com)

    Of course, this is a single, anecdotal incident.
    The irony of it is a sad example of anti vax hubris gone wrong.
    I am not a medical expert, and neither was she.
    Be good to yourselves everybody.

    ((((sigh))))

    lt is a tragedy and I blame the Tucker Carlsons of this world who stand with massive loud speakers churning up outrage over vaccines so they can get more audience and therefore more money

    Trying to catch COVID to reach immunity is like playing Russian Roulette with 4 barrels loaded

    Yeah, it is sad.
    Other than dyeing a fool's death, she probably was a nice person.
    I tend to like folk singers.

    That is a rather callous dismissal.
    Tell that to her family and friends.
    She was a member of Asonance for 37 years.

    Perhaps the story is true as told in the headline, perhaps it is not. Glad you posted it, but there are far more important things going on in this world than the death of a singer. Sorry if that sounds callous.

    Didn't he get sick after being at an Orange Jesus cult meeting?

    P.S. I swear that I didn't copy off @heynow's paper. ;-) I didn't read any of the other responses before posting.

    To a lot of people, the vaccine is not the issue so much as who has the power to force someone to take the shots.

    Shakes head

    That is just an excuse and a poor one at that. Do you drive past the speed limit because speed limits are mandated? How about not wearing seat belts because they are mandated?

    True, she is certainly not the only anti vaxer to die from the virus.
    Google "Herman Cain award" for more on the topic.

    Perhaps it would be better if she had been "asked nicely" to get the vaccine?

    Maybe just acknowledge that she made her choice and don't make more of it than is there. But yes, ask someone nicely and then leave them to make their own decision.

    Why can't a person want to talk about this and other things going on in the world?

    You are making sound like <whoever your responded to> you decide what other people choose to focus on. On what authority do you believe that is reasonable?

    Such a sad and avoidable way to die. Telling that her family got vaxxed, caught COVID & were fine. Too many people over the past 12 months have died because they refused a vaccine that would have dramatically incresed their chances of either not getting the virus or getting a less severe dose.

    Don't be surprised by the callousness of the anti-vax crowd. They have spent 2 years minimizing the scale of deaths in this pandemic & finding ways to ignore millions of deaths from COVID while obsessing on a handful of deaths from vaccines. When you spend enough time classifying people as 'would have died anyway' callousness is a necessity.

    And that approach had America stagnant at 58% vaccinated with a swamped healthcare. Mandates only came in as a counter to the Lyon ard Hanna magnetise me “ crowd

    And now the vaccination percentage is higher and so are the number of Covid infections and deaths.

    Nobody has LEGITIMATE power to force others to take the shots, at least under the US Constitution. Greedy leaders have attempted to usurp such power.

    I don't care what other people read, write or talk about. I follow what interests me and ignore what doesn't. It's not rocket science.

    People can believe, and many do, that Fauci has their best interests and health at heart. I know better. Some folks pay dues at the Church Of The Poisoned Mind. That's fine by me, but I am entitled to chuckle at their credulity. :angel:

    Two things. She exercised her choice hot to get the vaccination. Secondly, if she had been vaccinated, it doesn't mean she would have survived, it merely increases her chances of survival.

    The story states, "Hana Horka’s death was preventable as are the many that will in the future because people will continue to refuse to get vaccinated. We can rail against misinformation....", Which is misinformation in itself. It omitted the word, "Possibly" between 'was' and 'preventable'.

    I'm vaccinated, I detest propaganda written news stories, whichever way the story swings. This type of misinformation gives the control freaks ammunition.

    I smell bullshit too. Was she otherwise healthy? If so then she had such a small risk of death it's almost non-existent. Maybe she got INCREDIBLY unlucky. Maybe there's more to the story.

    Maybe because if you're healthy the risk is actually low. I'm in my late 40's, a touch overweight, with pre-hypertension. I caught one of the nasty strains of covid before there were "vaccines" and I came out of it just fine. So did MILLIONS of others. So yeah, if a perfectly healthy 37 YO does from covid chances are pretty good that she some other health issues going on. And if that's the case it was very unwise to catch covid on purpose.
