Man dies after developing autoimmune disease from vaccine
Herald Guide ^

Posted on 02/01/2022 6:52:33 AM PST by TigerClaws

A man with local ties died Jan. 28 after doctors say his second COVID vaccine caused an immune response that led to the development of an autoimmune disease.

Brandon Pollet, 33, was born and raised in LaPlace and lived in St. Charles Parish for 10 years before moving to Ponchatoula.

“Brandon had no prior medical history,” Brandon’s wife Jessica Pollet said. “After his second Pfizer vaccine, Brandon developed a headache right away then fever 48 hours after.”

His first hospitalization was Oct. 21 – Nov. 7.

“He was worked up for hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis, or HLH, but it was ruled out and he was diagnosed with a rare autoimmune disease called Still’s Disease,” Jessica said. “After discharge, Brandon went home for about a month and was then re-hospitalized Dec. 14.”

Jessica said it was later in December when Brandon was officially diagnosed with HLH. The couple has a 1-year-old daughter.

“He received the HLH protocol treatment, which included chemotherapy,” she said last week. “Unfortunately, none of the usual treatments have worked. The doctors have agreed that the COVID vaccine caused an immune response that led to the development of the autoimmune disease and HLH.”

Jessica said that the employees of Shell Oil – where Brandon worked as an instrument mechanic – have been incredibly supportive and encouraging to the entire family, as has the entire St. Charles Parish community.

“The community has organized blood drives and a GoFundMe account to support Brandon and to help us pay medical bills,” Jessica, who took leave from work to care for Brandon, said. “We ask for your thoughts and prayers.”

The GoFundMe for Brandon Pollet – which has raised over $30,000 for the family – can be found by searching “Help Brandon with Medical Bills” on the site.

You force the cells to present antigens and then act surprised when the immune system attacks these same (your) cells?

Tragic for the man and his family.

Interesting…in verifying the article there was notification on Bing that “Some of the results had been removed”. Still many occurrences of the article.

Mr. Clean hard at work, I see.

His death would have been much more deadly if he hadn’t been vaccinated.

No thanks. My body, my choice. They should be made to list all the possible side-effects, like medication advertisements use 2/3 of the commercial time to do.

---SNIP---

Sounds like they didn't know what was wrong with him. Did he have Still's disease or HLH? Or both? Or neither?

If Shell mandated it then they’re fully responsible and need to pay full restitution and benefits to the family. Not leave it up to the charity of their employees.

Anecdotal. /s

How many thousands/millions of “Anecdotal” examples before someone in charge notices?

I wonder if any doctor told him that at his age he has over a 99.95 survival rate if he gets infected with C-19.

Killing the educated workers here in America so we can expand H1B visa program with foreign workers and their families who are more compliant to government tactics.

If most people would read scientific articles by true experts instead of lining up for the jab at the first offering, we’d have set this on its heels the first year.

Shell Oil mandated the vaxx for offshore oil workers.

This woman does not sound upset at all with Shell.

This happens every single time you get infected with any virus - which is a somewhat regular occurrence.

Whoever added the category "Political Humor / Cartoons" if it wasn't an accident really has some issues.

In the bright side, Brandon no longer has to worry about succumbing to a 99.8 (for his age group) survivable virus. Rest In Peace knowing this, Brandon

Here is a link to an Early Warning about vaccines and Weaponized Influenza possibly from the 1920s or 1930s.

I sometimes think today’s politicians get their ideas from old cartoons.

Pass this link around!

It’s not a vaccine. Quit calling it that.
