A nurse faints, a jab is faked — What’s going on with the COVID-19 vaccine?

It has been a historic week as the coronavirus vaccines are being rolled out and given to high-priority folks, such as nurses, doctors, and long-term care residents.

At the same time, it has not been the greatest of public relations that will inevitably deter skeptical folks of being jabbed.

Last week, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) highlighted in its report of two deaths, four cases of Bell’s Palsy, and warnings of severe allergic reactions.

Now you have a nurse passing out on live television after taking the vaccine. Check out the clip below:

Her story does not make any sense because she says she faints due to pain sensitivity. But why would she be chosen to be vaccinated on live television.

Then there was the interesting case of an apparently staged event at the University Medical Center of El Paso.

Watch this clip of either mendacity or incompetence:

That’s right. The shot was faked. But the university issued a statement that did not address the initial doubts.

“After numerous reports emerged on social media claiming one of the five nurses receiving a
vaccination on Tuesday did not receive a full dose of vaccine, we want to remove any doubt raised that he was not fully vaccinated and further strengthen confidence in the vaccination process,” UMC said in a statement to KTSM. “The nurse in question today was vaccinated again. UMC has confirmed with the US Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) that re-vaccinating the nurse will not cause adverse effects. The nurse will need to return after three weeks to receive his second dose.”

The COVID-19 vaccine is likely safe on a wide scale, but there will inevitably be incidents like these that will force people (rightly so) to be apprehensive about being jabbed.
