Texas Man Dies After Refusing "Poison" Vaccine
Lisa Adler and her four brothers grew up in Kenner. Just over a month ago, they had to say goodbye to one of those brothers, Alan Scott Lanoix. Lanoix tested positive for COVID-19, and spent 17 days in the hospital with several on a ventilator. His wife and sons all tested positive too. They survived, but Lanoix died June 9th at 54 years old.
"He thought the vaccine was poison and he was afraid of getting it and there's a lot of people that have that same feeling," Adler said. Now, she focuses on her fond memories and her brother's wonderful life. "He was a great person and I urge anybody if they are on the fence about getting the vaccine, do it in my brother's memory," she said.

That was before the Trump Admin and the Right politicized a virus and pandemic and made it all about 'real freedomz = being a covid downplayer', the anti-vaxxing really took off after that.
eg You literally have to show that your kids are vaccinated before they're allowed to attend public school, I know I've done this every year since by kids first started with preschool. It's been a thing since at least 1922 with smallpox.
Florida Patients Sorry They Rejected Vaccine
Amanda Beinborn said she and her family members kept wanting to do more research before getting a vaccine. They never did. When Beinborn tested positive, her family followed.
"My mom at first was not doing very well," she said. "We did have some scares where we would think that she was on her final days. Her fever spiked up to 103.7 and this is before we even got her to the hospital."
Beinborn's brother is still on oxygen. "We're just still keeping him on the oxygen for now because he will get very fatigued and get very out of breath just from walking from one side of the house to the other," Beinborn said.
"No one should have to go through this. It's definitely real. It's definitely something that happens and it can be prevented if we would have taken better precautions."
I feel bad for the underage kids who are old enough to get vacinated, but their parents won't allow it.
Adults, not so much, Covid19 has been around for over 18months now and the serious illnesses that can result from infection has been shown to us ad nauseam; still being shown. If you prefer to take the advice of some Youtuber making vids over medical professionals, that's your fault.
Mother of Eight Now Sorry She Refused Vax
A Florida mother of eight is sharing her story about her battle with COVID-19. She says she came close to dying and regrets not getting vaccinated. "It was horrifying," Ganeene Starling said. "I never in my life have felt like I was going to die until that day."
Starling had chosen not to get the vaccine. Her husband was not vaccinated either or their children. She said she let people influence her in not getting the vaccine.
"Just that it had not been around long. Honestly, I think I listened. I think I let people influence me, like saying, 'Oh, you know, this is the government just trying to fill our bodies with stuff and they're trying to push this shot on us,'" Starling said.
Her husband and four of her children, including her 6-year-old, also got COVID. She spent nine days in the ICU, and is still on oxygen at home.
Man Who Believed Vax Contains Tracker Has Regrets
One man who refused to get the COVID-19 vaccine ended up in the hospital after contracting the virus. Before July, Gumerocindo Vergara had no fears of the virus but that has all changed now.
The 37-year-old construction worker from Pacoima was convinced he would not get the novel coronavirus. He believed friends who said if he got vaccinated the government would try to put something in his body to track him.
He says he regrets not getting the vaccine and encourages people to do so. "If I would've known the symptoms I had now, I would have done the vaccine," Vergara said.
YouTube commenters are calling him a paid actor.
There was an article that I'm now having trouble finding where a doctor talked about Covid patients begging for the vaccine when beforehand they were calling it a hoax. She also mentioned that none of her patients have ever discussed with their primary care doctors about whether or not they should take the vaccine and made their decisions based on something they either read on social media, saw on the news or something a person who's not an expert in the medical field told them.
And then there's this guy
They should have just saved the resources for somebody else since he doesn't care.

I read similar articles. It's incredibly sad.
