A womans 52-year-old unvaccinated husband landed in the hospital from severe Covid symptoms last month and needed to be placed in the ICU with a ventilator and ECMO.
Her tweets about the tragic situation reveal her refusal to let doctors administer provided much-needed care, for fear he would receive vaccinated blood.
The woman refused her husband a vaccinated blood transfusion before he died from COVID-19.
After a month-long fight, her husband passed away from the virus, she claims this wasnt because he was unvaccinated.
The womans original tweet claimed that she was starting her own personal blood drive for her husband because blood banks werent separating vaccinated blood from the unvaccinated blood.

That would involve changing their donor questionnaire and procedures at their components lab and blood bank to segregate those units. Changes in their distribution too. They are highly regulated. You don't just tell the crew at a morning meeting and go for it.

(13,538 posts)donor screening a lot. Our staff physician said the only thing that might be a problem is if you donated right after being vaccinated. That could diminish the effect; sucking some of the vaccine out of you before your immune system made use of it. But he said that was just off the top of his head and not official.

(36,655 posts)Why didn't you take him to a doctor who would treat him as you wanted?
"My 50 yr old husband died 2 days ago not from not being vaccinated- he died because he was denied early treatment with drugs that ACTUALLY WORK like Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine!!! Rendesivir DOES NOT WORK, but will destroy your kidneys!!! STOP THE FUCKING LIES!!!!"
