I watched one of my best friends choke on his own lungs and die of COVID last year. He'd be alive if he had gotten the vaccine.

- throwaway5959 4y agoI’m sorry to hear that.
- Server6 4y agoThanks. I wouldn't wish what he went through on my worst enemy. He was in the hospital for three months and spend half of that time on a ventilator. After a month COVID isn't contagious anymore and we were allowed us to visit him in the ICU (really visiting his family). I was at the hospital the night he passed away. I think for a lot of people COVID isn't "real". They don't know anyone who died. Or if they do they were old, and/or it happened in the hospital far away from whatever their personal reality is. Believe me when I tell you the risk associated with the vaccine is nothing compared to what he went through. I fully believe had he been vaccinated he'd still be here today.
- polartx 4y ago>He'd be alive if he had gotten the vaccine. Sorry for your loss, but there’s no way you could know that. The very same logic you would require you to espouse the belief that any person who received a vaccine and died, died because the vaccine.
- Server6 4y agoHe was in mid 30s, young for COVID - but diabetic. There have been actual studies done for the vaccine to show efficacy in preventing death for someone in his risk group. So not the same logic, but accrual proven causation. There's a very very good chance he would've made it had he been vaccinated.
