Anti-Vax Priest Dies of COVID at 51
A priest who shunned COVID-19 vaccines over the false belief that they contain "aborted embryos" has died at the age of 51 after battling coronavirus for several weeks.
Don Paolo Romeo had resisted pleas to get vaccinated from friends and colleagues who tried to talk sense into him.
Romeo, who served as parish priest at Santo Stefano Abbey in Genoa, had clung to the conspiracy theory espoused by followers of French Catholic Archbishop Marcel François Marie Joseph Lefebvre that vaccines are made using cells from aborted embryos.

Prominent Anti-Vaxxer Dies of COVID
Franco Trinca, the 69-year-old biologist who had expressed his no-vax and home therapies against COVID, died in the hospital in Città di Castello. The Perugian biologist and nutritionist had been hospitalized for COVID with bilateral pneumonia. Trinca refused intubation.
Trinca had been the protagonist of heated TV clashes with Selvaggia Lucarelli, speaking in favor of alternative therapies. He was strongly opposed to vaccination, arguing that the spike protein solicited by vaccines is carcinogenic and that the vaccines themselves contain graphene.
He declared on television that he did not get vaccinated, because he has a "good immune system." Now he is dead from COVID. Good riddance.
