Source: BONUS Friday Medical Emergencies Roundup ☙ ☙ C&C NEWS

As I mentioned in this morning’s post, I decided it might be more manageable to just look for medical emergencies in the most recent seven-day period: October 21st through October 26th (with one exception). I was wrong!

This bonus post summarizes what I found searching for “medical emergency” for those dates, excluding all cases outside the United States, and excluding anything that doesn’t fit the vaccine injury profile. This list is by no means comprehensive. The search engines do not search all local papers. The searches are also inconsistent, and I have to do them multiple times trying to find everything. I don’t know how many may have been missed.

Note: the deaths and injuries didn’t necessarily occur on the reporting date. The dates shown were when the story hit the media. Two of the stories aren’t about individual injuries, but I thought they were appropriate to report anyway.

Given the amount of work required, the sheer volume, the depressing nature of the cases, and the repetitive themes, I will probably not continue this. Maybe someone else could carry the torch for the regular folks.

I also decided to reserve the post’s second half for supporters. I appreciate your loyal support very much! Free readers: do not worry, there’s plenty for you too.
