Death of Florida doctor after COVID-19 vaccine

A Florida medical doctor died 16 days after taking the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine. An Emeritus Professor of medicine from a respected medical institution claimed in an interview with a large media outlet that “it’s a medical certainty that the vaccine was related.” Vaccine opponents quickly disseminated the remarks to validate their opposition to the vaccine. The Florida medical doctor’s death is under investigation by the CDC and researchers from the vaccine manufacturer. Cause of death is pending from the Miami Dade County’s coroner. At this time, he is believed to have died from a brain hemorrhage brought on by a low platelet count, a condition called “acute immune thrombocytopenia”.
