COVID is a respiratory disease, usually attacking the lungs first and if you have COPD or lung disease, you have a lesser chance of surviving.

well its not that simple. he died from the virus complications due to comorbidity. but not for covid, he could still be alive. but having a prior issue makes some of us sitting ducks.

I don't see why we should not be alarmed by people dying as a result of the vaccine vs dying from COVID 19. In both cases, the people are dead. Dead is dead. Oh, when people said one death from COVID 19 was one death too many (the cry of the liberals complaining about Trump not being able to stop the pandemic), the libs were all patting one another on the back over such a profound statement, but now, we have "Don't be alarmed if people die from the vaccine." Why not in this case "one death is one death too many"? I can tell you $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

There is no evidence that elderly nursing home patients will die faster than they would otherwise because they get the vaccine.

If by some chance that happens, it will be readily apparent.

Why are you stirring up doom and gloom before it happens?

“One of the things we want to make sure people understand is that they should not be unnecessarily alarmed if there are reports, once we start transporting, of some or a multitude of people dying within a day or two of their admission into the various "covid camp care facilities" in the remote western deserts. Or even reports that the showers are not really showers and the waste incinerators are not really waste incinerators and the manned microwave towers bristling with air quality probes are not really manned microwave towers bristling with air quality probes. That would be something we would expect as a normal occurrence because Americans are dumb-as-hell deplorable xenophobes, have big mouths, and quite often mistake showers for gas chambers, incinerators for crematoriums and manned microwave towers bristling with air quality probes for machine gun nests. Those are not really boxcars either; they are first class Amtrack coaches and sleeping cars. Again... nothing to see here, sheep... er, uh, fellow beloved Americans. You can trust we the media and our benevolent now-authoritarian-collectivist-government. Really you can. Because we have proven ourselves honest and forthright time and time again. Shall we hold hands and sing Kumbaya one more time?”

Disgraceful that you should evoke the holocaust to compare to the current situation.

The covid vaccine should be as safe as any other vaccine. The issue has and has always been that vaccines do illicit a response from the body whenever they are introduced into the body. In this case, there's a chance you may experience 104-105 fever for a day before it goes away. If you are extremely old and frail and have health issues i can actually see some ppl dying from this.
