Let's meet Krystyna Crawford. According to her LinkedIn profile she is a Registered Nurse working at Owensboro Health. How does she feel about the Covid-19 vaccine? Well, that's pretty clear, isn't it? She recently posted this link to The Liberty Counsel about the Covid-19 vaccine causing miscarriages. However, there is no reliable research that has made the connection between the vaccine and miscarriages. Fact check from Reuters, Fact Check.org, and AP News. Those are much more reputable sites than The Liberty Counsel which is "a corporate expression of Christian believers who profess Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior and join together in regular prayer, study of the Bible, praise and worship." Last year she posted that the Covid restrictions in school were unnecessary and caused more harm than good. Ivermectin "is a miracle drug that could save hundreds of thousands of people from death by Covid, if we only encourage and allow our physicians to treat patients with it!" Nope...not true. Fact check from Reuters, PolitiFact.com, and the BBC. There are many more but that's enough to shut down her claims about Ivermectin. "Covid coverup!" Brian Hooker is famous for promoting the claim that vaccines cause autism, so anything else he has to say about vaccines is highly suspect. I couldn't find the source of this photo or the supposed pediatrician's office. However, I was able to fact check the unfounded claims from conservative media that student athletes are being harmed or killed by the Covid-19 vaccine. You can read that here and here. "There are other ways of protecting ourselves than taking a chance with questionable "vaccines" which have had more reported vaccine injuries and deaths than the combined reports of all other vaccines for the last 30 years." Actually, according to this medical journal, "Based on official reported COVID-19 deaths, we estimated that vaccinations prevented 14·4 million (95% credible interval [Crl] 13·7–15·9) deaths from COVID-19 in 185 countries and territories between Dec 8, 2020, and Dec 8, 2021. This estimate rose to 19·8 million (95% Crl 19·1–20·4) deaths from COVID-19 averted when we used excess deaths as an estimate of the true extent of the pandemic, representing a global reduction of 63% in total deaths (19·8 million of 31·4 million) during the first year of COVID-19 vaccination." She says, "We don't know what these novel shots are going to do to us long-term but I've seen enough so far to make me have GRAVE concerns, and to express my well-informed thoughts and opinions to anyone who is interested." Well, according to the Mayo Clinic, who might be a bit more informed than Krystyna, the long term effects of Covid are: Fatigue Symptoms that get worse after physical or mental effort Fever Lung (respiratory) symptoms, including difficulty breathing or shortness of breath and cough Other possible symptoms include: Neurological symptoms or mental health conditions, including difficulty thinking or concentrating, headache, sleep problems, dizziness when you stand, pins-and-needles feeling, loss of smell or taste, and depression or anxiety Joint or muscle pain Heart symptoms or conditions, including chest pain and fast or pounding heartbeat Digestive symptoms, including diarrhea and stomach pain Blood clots and blood vessel (vascular) issues, including a blood clot that travels to the lungs from deep veins in the legs and blocks blood flow to the lungs (pulmonary embolism) Other symptoms, such as a rash and changes in the menstrual cycle It seems that her father had Covid. It's "a victory", she says! Krystyna knows how to knock out Covid. She has had it three times and the solution...Juice. Plus+! Not only does she advocate for Juice Plus+, but she sells it, too! It's a pyramid scheme. (Reference links here and here) She says "you can't just rely on Big F a r m a." But you can rely on a MLM product? Okay... Come grow with her! She also sells $500 Tower Gardens from Juice Plus+! Krystyna may have had Covid 3 times but at least she has had her Juice Plus+ to get her through. I wonder why it didn't work for her dad though. I've been vaccinated and fully boosted. I have had Covid ZERO times and I haven't had to shell out hundreds of dollars a month for supplements from a MLM company. Just sayin'... I can't help but worry that we're going to have another big spike in cases after Halloween and as more people are spending time indoors as it gets cooler. I know many of us are vaccinated and boosted but there are still plenty of others who are not. So, what are your plans? If you're dressing up, what is your costume? Discuss in the comments! Let's try and lighten up on each other in the comments. I am limited on internet and time right now and I do not have time to dissect who is wrong and who is right with all the fighting in the last post. Remember, be respectful. That's all we ask. It's unreasonable for us to expect everyone to get along but please have the maturity to scroll past a post that you don't like or agree with. I'm trying to use what little time and internet I have to make new posts and I can't do that if some of you all are going to fight and make things messy. I suggest some of you should go back and read Vaxman's Station Break post again. I hope everyone has a safe and Happy Halloween! Haha...nope Holly Skaggs. I don't know who Neil Allen is but I can assure you that is not Vaxman. You won't be making detective anytime soon. No, we don't make fun of people who died of Covid. There's nothing funny about anyone dying of Covid. We highlight people who are anti-vaxxers and spread Covid misinformation.

Oct. 31 Update: Click here to jump to the update According to social media posts, Paula is in an induced COMA with COVID. Paula is an "old school" anti-vaxxer who was spreading the disinformation during the peak anti-vaxx movement in the fall of 2021. Well, COVID finally caught up with her. Not going to comment much, but it does seem as if we're in for another big push from COVID this winter. However, it also seems as if a lot of the anti-vaxx Facebook memes have died down...for now. To be anti-Fauci is to be anti-vaxx: Oldie but goodie... Why do they always misspell "variant"? Can't argue with that logic... Good to know she feels this way: Another old friend of a meme: Some of these are fun to revisit: Never saw this one before! The underlines help, but who is that guy? : uh oh...Prayer warrior time! Yep it's COVID: As of today, Paula still is in an induced coma. Let‘s wish her the best. Get better, Paula! October 31, 2022: Paula died RIP Paula

Greg Hooker runs Greg Hooker Ministries, an online church. I found Pastor Hooker when I was researching previous SAV entry, Yolanda Haney Bentley, because she shared many of his posts over the past few years. Yolanda and many others share Pastor Hooker's posts about God, the end times, prayer...and Covid misinformation. Let's see how Pastor Hooker leads his flock: (This is a long one, click here to jump to the comments) Check out his website and under the tab called "Searching for Truth in Current Events" he has links to disgraced Dr. Peter McCullough, the Stew Peters show with Dr. Jane Ruby, and a video from anti-vaxxer, Lisa Marie Carter. On his Facebook page he shared this post with "INFORMATION TO PONDER." It says Bill Gates is building the Human Implantable Quantum Dot Microneedle Vaccination Delivery System and it needs an enzyme called Luciferase. He continues that "we might be witnessing the kingdom of Antichrist and the Mark of the Beast system being assembled before our very eyes." He calls the Covid-19 vaccine the death jab. "EVERYTHING the FDA and the CDC have told the public about these shots is a LIE!" He shared some helpful advice on how to fight Covid-19 at home. If the asparagus and smoothies don't help, take HCQ, Ivermectin, Zinc, and Vitamin D. Actually, Greg, that information will NOT save your life. (Fact Check here, and here...and here) There are no studies that have been able to prove the effectiveness of Ivermectin as treatment for Covid-19. (Source: ClinicalTrials.gov) According to the New England Journal of Medicine, improperly using Ivermectin to treat Covid-19 can cause gastrointestinal distress, confusion, ataxia, weakness, hypotension, dizziness, confusion, and seizures. Pastor Hooker should stick to preaching about Jesus and leave the medical advice to the professionals. I've seen this one circulating a lot in the past few days. Anti-vaxxers are trying to attribute Brignole's death with the Covid vaccine causing Sudden Adult Death Syndrome. However, Brignole's cause of death has not been announced, he was fully vaccinated for 18 months, and SADS is an inherited heart condition and is NOT caused by vaccines. (Source: https://www.techarp.com/facts/doug-brignole-sudden-death-facts/ ) Whoa, so his wife works in the ICU?!? He continues and says he believes that Covid was "deliberately orchestrated by the China government and urged on by the radical Democrats to stop our President and to steal the election." Here are some more of his MANY Covid-related posts from his Facebook page: This didn't happen. More of Hooker's misinformation. Source: Associated Press Is this some Q-Anon stuff? Testing positive for CV is a code word for taking a deal to be executed? Moving past the Covid-19 posts, let's see what else Pastor Hooker has to say: There's a lot to take in with this post. The Deep State traffics children for Satanic rituals and there are hidden bases with demonic extraterrestrial life hidden under the Antarctic ice sheets. Look out for the "Luciferian Cult" in Hollywood! PROTECT YOUR CHILDREN from Lady Gaga! She's making the sign of the beast in The Muppets. Beware of the portal to demons pretending to be your dead relatives, the Ouija Board from Hasboro, available at Wal-Mart or your nearest gaming retailer! Am I to assume that Greg Hooker Ministries is not friendly to the LGBTQIA+ community? He has made numerous posts that the end times are near, there's a New World Order coming soon, and that the Covid-19 vaccine is the mark of the beast. In this video from his YouTube channel, Pastor Hooker discusses the Mark of the Beast. He says the Covid-19 vaccine isn't the Mark of the Beast but it is getting the world acclimated and conditioned for when the Devil arises and takes over. We're also getting closer and closer to the declaration of a New World Order. The Covid-19 lies and manipulation by the Christian-right and ministers like Greg Hooker is literally killing people. It's irresponsible and dangerous. They gain the trust of their followers by preaching about faith, love, redemption, and everlasting life in Heaven while leading the gullible and vulnerable away from the actual science that can protect them from death or serious illness from Covid-19. 10/19/22 Update: He's on to us! Our website is not devoted to stopping just one person. It's dedicated to stopping the spread of Covid-19 misinformation, to show the devastating effects of Covid-19, and encourage the vaccination of everyone against this deadly virus so we may finally end this worldwide pandemic. Click here to read the prayers and comments left for Pastor Hooker and see what they think of us. It's exactly what you would expect. I wonder if fellow SAV alum, Yolanda, will join in the call for prayer?

Hey SAVers. Given the amount of bickering we've seen on the comments and forums lately, I thought I'd share some observations. First, these types of attacks on people who are essentially in the same tribe is the reason that Democrats and liberals lose elections. It's certainly how Donald Trump became president. You see, liberals aren't very good at being a tribe. Conservatives are excellent at it. Go and read Truth Social, or a Q-Anon site and you'll find that people are too busy agreeing with one another to argue; what they agree on is danger posed by the "other" side. America and the world are in grave danger from these solid tribes of idiots, and all the while liberals and centrists are bitching about each other as much as they are about the real enemy...the right wing. The split between Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders CAUSED Donald Trump to win, and what followed with the Supreme Court. Now abortion is being banned across the country, and barriers to voting by minorities are being constructed. This kind of split would never happen today on the right. Once a conservative candidate is chosen they all follow suit like a good tribe and march together to win. The behavior of many on this site is a microcosm of the bigger problem; somehow we need to march together and quit bickering and focus our energies on the real enemies instead of ourselves. By the way, having a common enemy is exactly what made the United States great in the first place. The Conservatives NEED an enemy, and so during my lifetime I saw the value of the existence of the Soviet Union. We all agreed that we should have better educated population than the Soviet Union, that we should have better scientists than the Soviet Union, that we should have better athletes than the Soviet Union. Since the fall of the Soviet Union we've turned on ourselves, or rather the right wing has turned on the next best thing to the Soviet Union, the "socialist" liberals, which we all know is a farce but it's what they need to maintain their tribe. What I'd like to ask the tribe left here at SAV is to focus on being a tribe by focusing on the enemy. The enemy comprises the right wing, the anti-vaxxers, the anti-scientists, the flat earthers, the religious zealots, and the Trumpers. Thanks, carry on and all that. Now that the pandemic is winding down, we're going to be refocusing this site on "kookbabblers" and other right wing nut jobs that I had no idea even existed before taking on this site. Until then I've got a backlog of anti-vaxxers to post for posterity purposes, and I'm considering making these stories NFTs. That way they can exist on the blockchain forever so that people in the future can look back and see just how stupid anti-vaxxers were. Carry on!

It's been a while since we've shared a story on SAV as we've been waiting for a good one to come along. I think you'll all enjoy this one. 😘 Meet Glory Stalvey of Dahlonega, GA. She's part of a health & wellness MLM company and a year ago was promoting some Crypto Facebook group where she provides education on Cryptocurrency. She has almost 4K followers on her personal FB page. I don't understand that one. 🤷🏻‍♂️ This is going to be a long one so you can jump to the comments here. Grab a cup of coffee or, for those on the other side of the world, grab a glass of wine and enjoy. Let's start here. Here's a small taste of what Glory's followers get. She was quite salty about the election results. They love to tease us about leaving FB or Twitter but never actually do it. I guess Georgia isn't red enough for Glory. Apparently, this wasn’t Covid. 😉 She'll later confess to a second bout with COVID. She claims to be an entrepreneur. According to her LinkedIn page, she works for Jeunesse Global, aka MLM. She's also running some Crypto FB group? Not sure what that is all about. She has a lot of religious nuttery on her page too. I'm in the wrong business. All you have to do is say some big words + God and they'll eat it all up. Does she stay true to her word? We shall see. Lil Nas X trolling the evangelicals. 😂😂 Some more words of wisdom from Glory. 🤷🤷 Someone doesn't understand how the military works and all those pesky vaccines they've been forced to take. Here. We. Go. Seriously? 😂😂 Her husband Tim also had COVID but not as bad. This is one of the funniest things I’ve ever come across while researching anti-vaxxers.. Hang on! No hospital. You might regret that. Is she smoking a cone? She's still holding strong to that freeDUMB. IV vitamins should do the trick. She actually did try and fight it at home. Don’t give up Glory, fight it at home. Stay strong, Glory. She can't answer all those phone calls and texts. Glory will not let the virus defeat her. She caved and finally went to the hospital for help. She's home. 🥳 No mention of all the healthcare workers who saved her life. 😔 The fight is NOT over. She made a video of her fight. A month later. She really craves attention. Fast forward two months. Someone really needs attention. Just like my teenage daughter. 6 weeks later....Oooo! She needs a lung transplant, and they won’t give her one. 😬 Some words of encouragement from her friend. She gave in to big Pharma. But still no vaccine. Ahhh, poor thing. As we say on HCA, DA FUQ? 🫣 Wow! She is still antivax. No wonder they wouldn’t give her a transplant. Finally, a shoutout to the healthcare workers. ❤️ 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 The end for now. As always, please get vaccinated and get the new COVID vaccine booster. You can find us on Facebook at Herman Cain Awards. If we get booted again, you'll find us at Herman Cain Awardz or Herman Cain Awardss (our backup pages).

Rick Strawcutter is currently a preacher at the Church on Bent Oak in Adrian, Michigan but has been the head of many churches throughout the years. He's also the face and the proprietor of Secrets of Eden, a company that provides “natural products with a Biblical flare." As a leader of the church, the parishioners look to him for guidance in life, faith, and health. As with our last few entries, I don't have evidence that he has had Covid, but he is a leader who wields his influence through his church and social media (he has over 16.4k YouTube subscribers) to dissuade people from taking the Covid-19 vaccine. I feel he has earned his spot on SAV. (Click here to jump to the comments) What does he tell his flock about Covid? Let's see: In this sermon on his YouTube channel he discusses "2 Timothy 3 & 4, How the left manipulates us and lies." He wears a fake mask that says, "Wearing a Mask Increases CO2 & Decreases Oxygen in your bloodstream. A Deadly Combination!" He shared this Stew Peters video that says the "vaxx destroys human reproduction." There's this video he shared from Dr. Aseem Malhotra. The title of the video is very distressing. Dr. Malhotra is a cardiologist who previously promoted the Covid-19 vaccine. One might be quite alarmed by his change of opinion on the Covid vaccine and his call for immediate suspension of further vaccines. HOWEVER…that's not the full story. Healthfeedback.org did an excellent job fact checking Dr. Malhotra's claims and gives links and citations to back up their debunking of Dr. Malhotra's fear-mongering video. Here's Stew Peters again. This time he claims that there's a wireless nanosensor in the bioweapon shots. He shared multiple posts claiming that the Covid vaccine contains or causes AIDS or HIV. Stew Peters also has this episode titled "Fauci Patent: Vaxx-Induced AIDS." What's the lesson here? Don't swim while vaccinated? He are just a few of many more posts about Covid from his Facebook page: In November of 2021 he made the claim that "Within the next three years a significant and world altering culling of up to 2 billion people will take place. Given that possibility, all we non-vaxxers have to do is wait it out." Ohhhh, there's definitely a culling happening, Rick! This is not a funny joke considering that as of October 10th, 2022 there have been 618 MILLION confirmed cases of Covid-19 and over 6.5 million Covid-related deaths (link to real time data from WHO here). Here are more of his writings and thoughts that he posted on Facebook: "There is no safe vaccine." He praises Dr. Peter McCullough, a vaccine skeptic who is being sued by Baylor Scott & White Heath and Health Texas Provider Network for falsely affiliating himself with his former employers while spreading Covid-19 misinformation. (Source here) He distrusts Big Pharma, pharmaceutical voodoo, and more, but don't worry because he has what you need at SecretsofEden.com where he is the resident naturopath! Need to regrow your hair? He has got a product for that! Need a cold sore healed instantly? He has you covered! Have the flu or a cold? Get rid of it in 20 minutes with his oils and a vibrator! "Vibrators are absolutely essential to the stopping of the flu virus!" Twist your ankle? The pain will disappear instantly with his bottle of Instant Pain Relief! Are those hemorrhoids bugging your ass? They can be gone overnight with H.G. Forever! Do you need to anoint your courthouse to remove Satanic influence or protect your property from robbers? Having bad luck with the slot machines and want to win consistently? Try Aaron's Oil! It's also great for the prostate. BUT WAIT, there's more! Need help fundraising for your local club or activity? See how you can earn money with the 20/20 program from The Secrets of Eden! Rick Strawcutter wasn't always a preacher and a naturopath practitioner. Nathanial Barry describes Rick Strawcutter in the article Jesus is Lord Over Lenawee County: "Make no mistake about the kind of man Rick Strawcutter is. Over his forty years in the ministry, he has advocated for the death penalty for gay people and interracial couples, he has spoken at White Supremacist gatherings, sold video tapes featuring Holocaust Deniers and members of the Christian Identity movement." Speaking of selling tapes: According to the Associated Press, when the Heaven's Gate cult members committed mass suicide, Strawcutter reportedly received their taped goodbye messages. He attempted to sell the tapes to NBC for $45,000. He reneged on the deal saying that ABC offered him $50,000 and was sued by NBC. (Source: Associated Press) Strawcutter ran Radio Free Lenawee, a pirate, unlicensed radio station. On his program he discussed many conspiracy theories, spewed anti-government rhetoric, and syndicated Infowars (founded by Alex Jones and his former wife, Kelly Jones). He also hosted American Freedom Network shows including one by host, Bo Gritz, who was the inspiration for Rambo. Gritz was a member of Christian Identity which is a "racist theology that rose to a position of commanding influence on the racist right." (Sources: Southern Poverty Law Center 1 2) Strawcutter eventually got into trouble with the FCC for operating an unlicensed radio station. He compared his struggles to those of Rosa Parks. "The fact that the FCC won't approve it won't stop me. This is the Rosa Parks of radio." He also compared his fight with the FCC to David Koresh's fight against the federal government. (source: The Cult Education Institute) Ultimately, his unlicensed radio station was shut down by the FCC because he was operating a station at 8,000 to 10,000 times the power allowed for unlicensed stations. (Source: Toledoblade.com) Given his history with his pirate radio station (I'm not talking about Yacht Rock, y'all!!) and his early association with Alex Jones and Infowars, you probably won't be surprised by some of these next videos: In this video he says that President Trump "knows, beyond reasonable doubt and to absolute moral certainty that no one has ever left Earth and gone to the moon. It's a complete hoax. The lunar landing IS A HOAX. We've never been there and the President knows this." He says, "I'm not 100% flat Earth but what I am most convinced of is #1 there is nothing that proved curvature of the Earth. All the mathematics prove there is no curvature." Well, if there's no curvature, wouldn't it be flat and make him a flat-Earther? He goes on to say that there are no scientific experiments to show that the Earth is moving, the Earth is fixed and does not move. There's chemical warfare happening over the "skys" in Adrian. He wants to know what's in these chemtrails. More on him and chemtrails below. Doctors cause cancer? Strawcutter made an effort to branch out into politics. In 2014 he ran for Congress. He didn't run as a Republican, Democrat, or Independent. He ran under the US Tax Payers Party. (Source for screenshots from his inactive campaign website: Library of Congress) What was his platform? Whoa...he wanted NO background checks for firearms? None? He was skeptical of 9/11 and thought there was a shadow government staging false flags to move forward a New World Order agenda? He wanted to stop chemtrails. Strawcutter came in last but still managed to receive over 3,000 votes. Thankfully, it seems that Strawcutter has abandoned his hopes of running for government. For Kookbabblers like Strawcutter, Covid and Covid vaccines are just a small facet of a larger delusion, but this facet has a potentially lethal impact on the rest of us. That‘s why SAV will continue to shine a light on antivaxxer “politicians”.

October 18th, 2022 Update: Chad got his kidney and he's up and walking the next day!?! Click here to jump to the update We have another SAVANT (Sorry Anti-Vaxxer And No Transplant) on our hands. It doesn't seem like a coincidence that this SAVANT's name is "Chad". He needs a kidney transplant to live, and he's being stubborn about getting vaccinated. He has 4% kidney function, he has diabetes, and he's lost both legs because of complications of his diseases. According to Chad (below), modern medicine has saved his life from the brink at least 50 times. And yet, he's so anti-vaxx and stubborn that he's willing to die in order to avoid taking a simple shot. Chad knows death very well; he's faced it repeatedly. Perhaps he's just sick of all? Maybe, but he has a running hashtag and brand he uses repeatedly -- called #lifeon -- which he uses to post inspiring quotes he's found on the internet. So, he doesn't seem suicidal, but maybe that's just him trying to convince himself to carry on despite all of his medical issues. Chad has had COVID twice; the second time, he ordered a bunch of Ivermectin horse paste (literally, he got it from a veterinarian). With Chad, I can just post links to his Facebook page for you to follow, and you'd quickly see all you need to see about Chad. Unlike many anti-vaxxers, neither Chad nor his family will never shut down his Facebook accounts. I don't think he'll even shut down the comments on his site. He LOVES the attention too much for that. Half of the attention he is getting is from other anti-vaxxers who cheer him on like the Japanese did with their Kamikaze pilots during WWII. (It's pretty damn easy to encourage someone else to sacrifice their life for a cause that you believe in.) The other half are people pointing and laughing at what an idiot he is to throw his life away, just to avoid getting a simple vaccine. Because Chad's Facebook pages are as wide open as Chad is, himself, I'll just post links to his two Facebook pages and let the thorough investigators on the SAV comment section fill in Chad's anti-vaxx profile. Please do, because If he ever does shut down his accounts it would be nice to have his thoughts compiled so people in the future can see what Chad was all about. I leave that up to you, SAVers. And once again you can earn a shining new SAV badge! All you have to do is post a screenshot or video from Chad and I'll award a "Hanging Chad" badge for you to wear on SAV. I'll post a few things to get the ball rolling... First, this post tells us all we need to know about his health: ^^^Seriously, this poor man has had it rough. Second, here is video of Chad taking Ivermectin (isn't he doing it in the wrong hole?). How on earth does it make sense that he'll take this horse dewormer he knows nothing about but won't take a vaccine he knows nothing about. Cult? Next, here is Chad announcing his intension to die instead of getting the vaccine (sorry about any ads, this is embedded from the news site): Finally, here's one of #LIFEON quotes: ^^^ It seems as if his comfort zone is death. Ok, there you have it. That's all I'm going to post. I leave the rest to the SAV community. Here are his Facebook pages: https://www.facebook.com/chad.carswell.3 and https://www.facebook.com/chad.carswell.79 Here's his instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bionic_hulk13/?hl=en Chad, you are true SAVANT. I'm not afraid to die, I just don't want to be there when it happens. #LIFEOVER October 9, 2022 Update: First, a giant thank you to a loyal SAV reader and member for the update! Good news for Chad. Despite a difficult relationship with his Mother, she is giving Chad a kidney. He also wants everyone to share his post so everyone knows how amazing God is. Chad has a new Facebook page called "Inmate Kidney." Is he still unvaccinated? YOU BET!! I'm not sure how smart it is to post your home address on the internet. Maybe he's hoping for a lot of Get Well Soon cards. He has two Gofundme accounts. The first has raised over $10k. Interesting that this was added, "I would also like to add this was all done without the vaccine! We beat the system! Chad's fight has helped overturn 12 hospital policies! This has helped 9 other people so far get kidney transplants!" The second was less successful. Good luck to Chad and his Mom on the upcoming surgery but that's just the first step in a long journey. We'll be checking for updates. Oct 17th, 2022 Update: Today is the day! The kidney transplant is happening! Well folks, he made it through the surgery and has his new kidney! October 18th, 2022: Wow. He's up walking around one day post-op? Best of luck with that new kidney, Chad! Don't waste it.

Dianna Ploss is a former radio host but her true rise to fame came when she went viral after harassing workers for speaking Spanish and became known as "Radio Karen." (Disclaimer: I'm not calling her a Karen, but that's how she became known when she went viral, not my words.) Click here to jump to the comments She even made it on TMZ! Imagine thinking that criticism of her racist rant is a badge of honor? That is sickening and disturbing. Dianna is running as an Independent for Governor of Massachusetts in 2024. BalletPedia.org asks candidates questions and here are some of her responses: If elected she is going to "fight for freedom and to help stop the One World Government in its' (sic) tracks!" "Our rights come from God. Our rights DO NOT come from the People in our Government, and that includes me." Also, "Reasonable taxes may be applied to new products only." As you read this story and watch the videos, see if you can find anything that shows she is following Jesus' example. She is referring to the UN's 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. "The UN 2030 Agenda envisages a world of universal respect for human rights and human dignity, the rule of law, justice, equality and non-discrimination." There are 17 main goals: End poverty in all forms everywhere End hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages Ensure inclusive and quality education for all and promote lifelong learning Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls Ensure access to water and sanitation for all Ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all Promote inclusive and sustainable economic growth, employment and decent work for all Build resilient infrastructure, promote sustainable industrialization and foster innovation Reduce inequality within and among countries Make cities inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable Ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns Take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts Conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources Sustainably manage forests, combat desertification, halt and reverse land degradation, halt biodiversity loss Promote just, peaceful and inclusive societies Revitalize the global partnership for sustainable development (Source: Ca' Foscari University of Venice) In this post she said, "Read about Agenda 2030 and the plan for the One World Government lead by the Bankers and the Rothschilds. This is real and Massachusetts is at its' epicenter." Is Dianna an anti-vaxxer who belongs on SAV? As with John Courchaine, I don't have any evidence that she has gotten Covid. But she has made her stance on Covid-19, masks, vaccines, and vaccine mandates clear, and as a public figure and potentially elected official she deserves her spot on SAV. Click below to watch her confronting people wearing masks at a Pride rally: Here, Diana is speaking at a Massachusetts Board of Health meeting where she says there's no evidence masks work and "all of these shots, they're not vaccines, they're gene therapy." She shared this article from her website and I've included an excerpt, below. Click either box to be linked to the full article: Another article and excerpt from her website: From her Facebook page: At the bottom of this video is a ticker that says "DO NOT TAKE THE JAB" and calls the vaccine a biological weapon. She shared this video from Dr. Scott Jensen, an unvaccinated doctor who has been investigated by the Minnesota Board of Medical Practice multiple times for several reasons, including prescribing Ivermectin as a treatment for Covid. Dianna uses the phrase "boots on the ground" to get volunteers to disrupt meetings and participate in marches. Her followers disrupted the Beverly Health Board's meeting on Covid: "Board of Health members then attempted to begin the discussion on the mask mandate but sent the meeting to recess after about 15 minutes when more than 350 people flooded the virtual meeting with frequent interruptions and there was no mechanism to mute those not scheduled to speak." She did it again at another meeting in Somerville. We've established her thoughts on Covid-19 but there's SO much more that the Massachusetts voters need to learn about this "activist" gubernatorial candidate, Dianna Ploss. She is a Holocaust denier and has said: "The J-was were NOT and are NOT the victims. They were and still are the PERPETRATORS of the most satanic and barbaric atrocities the world has ever faced via their invention of COMMUNISM. Smarten up and stop falling for this J-W PROPAGANDA!" If that last post wasn't disturbing enough, here she is mocking the Holocaust with her running mate, Jim Rizoli, and Joe, the Minister of Hate. Here's another video where Dianna, the Minister of Hate and Jim discuss the details of the "Holocaust Myth." I didn't link this video but it's on Twitter if you really want to see it. Do you really need anything more than the title, "Jew-LIE?" This video titled Mass-a-JEW-setts is disgusting and hateful. Again, I'm not linking it. Now they call themselves the "Hoaxbusters?" (Video is linked, click below) Speaking of Joe the Minister of Hate, he really lives up to his name here. This is absolutely vile and disgusting behavior. I'm not letting Jim Rizoli off the hook either. He has many videos on Bitchute regarding, what he calls, the Holo-Hoax. In this video titled Jews and Their Fake Tattoos, he says it's "just another bullshit story" and "a lot of these Jews got these tattoos AFTER the war." It's really infuriating and a lot of those videos were difficult to watch. She shared that Israel is responsible for 9/11. And this one... Let's get back to Dianna's "activism." Dianna was arrested during a clash between BLM and Trump supporters. Here is Diana at a Back the Blue/Trump rally where she constantly refers to the BLM movement as "Burn Loot Murder People." If that one bothered you, here is a better one where she is arrested. She resists arrests and asks the arresting officer if he's a “commie”. So much for backing the blue! She interviews this "gentleman" and he says "I wanna fight for laws where we can we can gun these idiots down when they act like fools because that's our constitutional right as self defense." Dianna replies and nods, "Yup, Yup!!" After attending many pro-Trump rallies, would you be surprised to learn where she was on January 6th, 2021? You guessed it! She tried to do several streaming videos as she and others marched towards the Capitol and she eventually made it as far as the Capitol steps. At one point she films the blood drops on the stairs. After admitting to storming the Capitol and making it to the top, she claims that they are the victims and they were "brutalized." Here she interviews a man who admits to making it inside the Capitol and then invites him to join her group. Unlike our previous entrant, John Courchaine, Dianna Ploss DID file the proper paperwork and is reporting her campaign spending and donations. She has raised over $11,000 in donations. For a full list of everyone who contributed to her campaign, including name, occupation, address, and donation amount, here is the spreadsheet: I've only scratched the surface on Dianna Ploss. There is so much more than I have the patience to search, read, watch, download, and organize. However, I think I've shown plenty. If you'd like to learn more, here are the links: On Twitter: https://twitter.com/Ploss4MAgov (HOW IS SHE STILL ALLOWED ON TWITTER?!?) On Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100070073929150 Her website: https://diannaploss.com/ On Rumble: https://rumble.com/user/DiannaPloss Her Youtube account was disabled for violating community guidelines Thankfully, at least ONE person in her inner circle wised up. The treasurer for the Ploss/Rizoli campaign resigned in August because her religious, personal, and political beliefs no longer aligned with theirs. Cheers to Holly M. Tse for making it out! My fear is that Dianna Ploss and other candidates like her may gain gain votes because of uninformed voters. Many people are frustrated with the two-party system and refuse to vote for a Republican or Democrat and instead wI’ll choose an Independent candidate. However, many wrongly assume that someone running as an Independent is actually independent of from the two major parties. While it's unlikely to work out for the more radical Independents like Dianna, in smaller elections and markets I could see a potential, but still mostly unlikely, situation where they might actually win an election. I find it terrifying that individuals like Dianna Ploss and John Rizoli truly believe that they deserve to be leaders and to hold a position of power in our government. I think it's disgusting that Twitter, Rumble, Bitchute, and other sites let them continue to spread hate, anger, and anti-Semitic videos. This is why it is so EXTREMELY important that voters are informed when they head to the polls. Let your voice be heard and VOTE! Here are some resources to help US Citizens to help be better informed voters: https://www.vote411.org/ All the election information you need, available in English and Spanish.

SAV is going to take a bit of a different approach as election season is on the horizon. It's time to put a spotlight on the Kookbabblers! Kookbabbling isn't really defined as far as we can tell, but you'll recognize the attributes of a Kookbabbler as we bring you more of their stories. Don't worry, we'll still have regular SAV stories as they come to our attention. Click here to jump to the comments section I can't find anything that indicates that John has had Covid, which is usually a prerequisite to appear on SAV. However, John is a vocal anti-vaxxer who is running for public office and using his platform to spread vaccine misinformation. I think that someone running for public office can be held to a higher standard than those typically featured on SAV. Disclaimer: Before we go farther I also want to say that I'm an LGBTQIA+ supporter, which is relevant to this story. I'm truly saddened and scared by what is happening with SCOTUS threatening gay marriage, the "witch hunt" for trans kids and their families in Texas, the 'Don't Say Gay' bill in Florida, and the many other threats to our LGBTQIA+ community in the US and around the world. As a straight woman I may not fully understand the correct terminology when discussing issues among the LGBTQIA+ community, and if I do make a mistake I'd be happy to make a correction and become better educated. Now let's meet hopeful 2024 Vermont gubernatorial candidate, John Courchaine! Vote USA gives us a look into John's political profile and qualifications: Take note of John's political experience and remember that name, Kevin Hoyt. He'll make a few appearances in this story. John ran for office before but was unsuccessful, receiving only 29 votes. While I can't find any indication that John has or has not had Covid, he is certainly unvaccinated and has shared many of his thoughts on Covid and the Covid vaccines through his Facebook and TikTok accounts. Let's explore: John likes to make shirtless TikTok videos and frequently uses the hashtags #unvaccinated #fuckurfeelins #fjb #repulicanparty #republican #letsgobrandon🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 #Trump2024 #FuckBiden #Draintheswamp #vermontrepublican #Redwave #saveamerica and #savevermont In this TikTok video John says that the vaccine is poison: Here he addresses comments he's received regarding his volunteer efforts. He says that it's difficult to volunteer because (1) there are limited opportunities, (2) he works, and (3) some positions require the Covid-19 vaccination, and "I ain't getting that fucking vaccine. I ain't injecting that freakin poison into me." Just a smattering of anti-vaccine posts from his Facebook page: All of my friends' children are vaccinated, know how to wear masks, and are doing great! Some of the littlest ones could use some work on their table manners and pronouncing their words (it's SPAghetti, not BAsketti!!) but none of them are living in fear, traumatized, or suffering from psychological damage. Speaking of childhood trauma, he shared this post from CanDEATH Owens as she "calls out" CDC-sponsored child abuse. John participates in an interview with the Talk Freedom Crew. He comes in around 10:20 and says he pretty much knows he can't win because he can't get media coverage. Around minute 44:00 the group starts discussing Covid -- this is where you want to start watching. They talk about the vaccine giving people heart attacks, making people sterile, causing clotting, but the clots apparently aren't blood clots and the injection of a protein grows irrespective of blood, and the mRNA vaccines change your DNA... You get the picture. It's a lot to listen to if you're up to the challenge! There's a lot to take in from this post! He covers January 6th, 9/11, Bin Laden, JFK's assignation, cloud seeding, global warming, and of course...Covid and Covid vaccines. All of this has been communicated with a stunning lack of punctuation. John says that he hates to be the bearer of bad news but "we don't have unvaccinated, Republican and true patriotic people willing to fight back running that are doing debates in Vermont in person." Here are a few other non-Covid posts from John: Mr. Rogers is the one who looks like a creepy pedo?!? He made a couple posts about Project Blue Beam. He's a fan of "duets" on TikTok, where he films himself watching another TikTok. This one is about Project Blue Beam. Click the image below to link to the video or watch the embedded video below that. Embedded version: The Satanic New World Order? Celebrities are being replaced? Eminem was part of the Illuminati and has been replaced after a car accident in 2006? Paul McCartney was possibly replaced, too? I'm surprised he didn't mention Mick Jagger and Keith Richards because I'm amazed they're still kicking! Maybe they're not part of the Illuminati, though. He shared several posts about cloud seeding, poison skies, poison air, etc. Several are from his buddy and another potential 2024 candidate for Vermont governor, Kevin Hoyt. More on him later, but remember his name. John starts off complaining about trolls, then explains to his followers and critics why he can't fact check everything. He says, "You ain't ever gonna hear the fucking media tell you the truth OR the government...Operation Mockingbird has never ended and until we get real, patriotic Republicans in office you're never gonna get the truth." He follows that by calling Mark Zuckerberg a pedophile and that adrenochrome is part of it (Q-talk for Hollywood elites harvesting the blood of children). He ends the video by saying, "Ya wanna be a freakin, snowflake crybaby, troll, motherfucker, go find a whale dick and suck on it." This is where things take an unexpected turn. Is John also Mallory? Again, how anyone identifies is NONE of my business. I don't care who you are, I care what you have to say and if you're telling people not to get the vaccine, then I DO care. In this video John addresses the pictures from years ago where he dresses differently. He can't access them or see the photos because Zuck likes to screw with his account (though I seem to have no problem seeing them). He explains that he went to therapy after a bad breakup because he dated someone who told him she was an anti-vaxx Republican, but that was a lie! He admits to dressing goth but since he's in politics now he has to "clean up a bit." Then, for a while, he thought he was transgender. It's curious to me that John is running on a platform of true, red-blooded Republican values when the Republicans are working hard to strip the rights, identities, and healthcare of the LGBTQIA+ when John once identified as transgender! It's kind of like Republicans and abortions: they're against it until they knock up their mistresses or their teenage daughters get pregnant. It's okay for them...but not for you. As someone who said they once thought they were trans, I find this next post puzzling: Here's a side by side of Mallory Walter and John. In this post from March of 2021, Mallory explains that she'll be on the ballot as John Courchaine since she hadn't legally changed her name and that, if elected, she'd be the first transgender representative of Orleans County. For a formerly transgender candidate, I found these two posts puzzling. I believe they were written after John was still posting as Mallory but no longer identifying as transgender. Mallory used her Facebook account to echo the same thoughts and views as John. So there are two accounts spreading the same kind of anti-vaxx posts and more. The last line says: "If this vaccine was safer and tested so many more would take it but the shadiness begs questions." And more... It looks like John has lost access to his Mallory account. So let's get back to John's campaign. He and Kevin Hoyt were speaking at the Freedom Rally on September 7th. John hasn't figured out how to accept donations for his political campaign, but if you'd like to support him, there's a way! He can sell you his campaign yard signs for $25 or Trump bumper stickers for $5. On September 29th he posted a TikTok video and he's more optimistic about getting the signatures needed to get on the ballot. He was recognized by THREE people while getting groceries! He says, "Together we can do anything and Together we'll Make Vermont Great again." John listed his previous professional experience as working on Kevin Hoyt's campaign. He and Mallory shared a lot of posts supporting Hoyt. From John: From Mallory: We know that both John and Mallory support Kevin Hoyt, but who is he? Hoyt is also hoping to run for Governor of Vermont in 2024, but as an Independent, not a Republican like John. Kevin says "crazy things" are in the Vermont skies. Don't worry, they ARE man made. According to WCVB in Boston, it was just another Space X launch. Vermont is a UFO hotspot? Kevin gave a talk about Tachyon energy and Earth's 5D Ascension. Click below to watch the video on Rumble. This is one of the advertisements linked below the Rumble video. I think I'll pass on this opportunity: Good Humor ice cream and human trafficking? Whoa. Big news. Here are the links from his post if you want the details: Russian MIL Declares Ukraine Origin of C19! DNC Globalists Created Covid! US COORDINATION OF BIOLOGICAL LABORATORIES AND RESEARCH INSTITUTES IN UKRAINE Here's something for the ladies! Do you meet John's requirements? Be sure you haven't had the poison jab! He also made a couple of videos about dating. He states that he's looking for a Trump-supporting woman who is also a Republican, pro-2A, unvaccinated, against global warming, and doesn't believe in abortion. She must want kids, but he prefers that she doesn't already have kids. Looking for ladies living in Illinois, New York, Massachusetts or someone who is willing to travel to meet him. To these women, he says: reach out, he's single! Between John and Kevin, I'm not sure which will win the Vermont nomination for governor in 2024. Either way, good luck to both on their campaigns! Be sure to check out John's Facebook Page: John Courchaine for Orleans County Rep I shared John's story because it's important for us to know that there are others like John, all across the US and the world, who are running for office, who might end up having control over your district, state, or country. Remember that when you think that your vote doesn't count, or you don't want to take the time to stop by your polling station. Look at what's at stake. It's more important than ever to be informed about your candidates, to vote, and to make your voice be heard. US residents: if you're not registered to vote or want to confirm you are registered to vote, please visit: https://www.usa.gov/register-to-vote. If you know of any Kookbabblers running for office, send us the story! Click here or at the top of the page at "Submit a Story." Oct 2nd update: Of course I would never recommend trolling anyone. However, as someone who is running for government I think it's reasonable for John to be questioned on some of his more objectionable posts, videos, messages, etc. Ask legitimate questions and allow him to defend himself and give answers. As a politician it's his duty to answer his constituents. October 9th update: Obviously, he's not a fan but this story was written using HIS Facebook posts and HIS TikTok videos. Also, we never received an email and we also never said he was dead. He shard this to 17 different Facebook groups.

This is a story about Christopher and Nicole Booth. Christopher was a firefighter and Nicole is a healthcare worker. They breed bulldogs and live in the beautiful state of Montana. Click here to jump to the comments Both Nicole and Christopher contracted Covid-19 shortly after Labor Day, 2021. Nicole said she suspects they contracted it while volunteering at the rodeo while handling money, because "how many times has that dollar bill been stuffed in someone's sweaty bra or a stripper's g-string???" Nicole recovered relatively quickly but Christopher wasn't so lucky. He was so sick that he was turning blue and had to be flown via helicopter to a hospital. He was placed in the ICU where he was eventually put on a ventilator. I've seen a lot of Covid stories but none have documented the trials and tribulations as thoroughly as Nicole. She updated his condition almost daily and I've complied them all below. It was a real roller coaster in terms of Christopher's health and her emotions. There were many highs and lows, false hope, and setbacks but ultimately, he came through. Let's see how it went: Sept. 26 - Oct. 2, 2021: He was ventilated, and not much was happening. He was very ill. Nicole asks for prayers. Oct. 3 - 7, 2021: He was still on the ventilator. On the 5th she said that "Besides being a little overweight as cholesterol a little high, he is a normal 46 year old." Nicole is thankful for the staff at St. Pete's ICU but doesn't like being home alone. Oct 8 - 14th. 2021: He had been in ICU for 25 days and on the ventilator for 20. Christopher received a tracheotomy. Oct 15 - 20th, 2021: They started spontaneous breathing trials. He tried to blink his eyes. On the 16th he took a couple of steps backwards. Besides that, more of the same. Oct 21 - 25th, 2021: On the 35th day of his ICU stay and 30th on the ventilator, Nicole said, "Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought that he would be this sick and up here this long." There were more ups and downs, and setbacks on the 25th. His heart rate spiked and his peg tube got pulled out. His blood pressure and O2 stats also dropped. They found small clots in his lungs and did an MRI to rule out a stroke. Oct 26 - 31st, 2021: He was waking up more but was weak. They were starting PT, OT, RT, and speech. He was able to start sitting up and he moved out of ICU and to Advanced Care Hospital of Montana. Nov. 1 - Nov 5th, 2021: He was being weaned off his ventilator and was ready for REAL food after 41 days of eating through a tube. He was still really weak but recovered enough to be able to speak to Nicole over the phone. He said: "we kicked Covid-19's ass." Nov. 6 - 11th, 2021: More improvements. Christopher worked hard in his therapy sessions. On the 8th they were able to remove his trach tube! Nov 14 - 21st, 2021: Christopher was finally able to take a shower and walked all the way to and from the dining room without stopping. He also got a visit from his dog. Here are a couple of pictures that were posted while he was still recovering. Quite a contrast from the pre-Covid pictures. November 24th, 2021: Christopher is finally released from rehab and going home after: 14 days in Rehab Hospital of Montana 11 days at Advanced Care Hospital 42 days in the ICU, 37 of them on a ventilator It's been just over a year since Christopher began his battle with Covid-19. On the one year anniversary, his wife made a post thanking everyone for the support they received during Christopher's battle. He's not 100% recovered yet bit the progress he made is astounding. We've seen Christopher's fight for life after he and his wife both got Covid. So, why was he on SAV? Let's check it out: Here are Fauci memes he posted before he was sick from Covid: Here are Fauci memes he posted after he was sick from Covid: Here are the Covid and anti-mask posts he shared before he was sick with Covid: Here are some Covid posts he shared after his battle with Covid: I'm truly astounded at the posts Christopher has made after his battle with Covid. Nearly dying from Covid and spending 37 days on a ventilator didn't seem to change his mind about anything regarding Covid. Nicole, as a healthcare worker, was grateful to the nurses and doctors for saving his life, but has made zero mention about the Covid-19 vaccine that could have prevented this. After reading all of Nicole's updates, it's a wonder to me that anyone would NOT rush out to get vaccinated against Covid-19. If you're on the fence about getting the vaccine, READ EACH UPDATE and ask yourself if you want this for yourself or someone you love! It's a true horror story and it's amazing that Christopher made it out alive. Don't let this happen to you. Please get vaccinated for Covid-19 and don't forget your flu shot, too! If you are unsure of when you should get your booster, here is a good resource from the CDC. To find the Covid-19 vaccine or booster near you, visit https://www.vaccines.gov/search/. PS: Please don't post to their Facebook pages. It dries up any hope for updates. This is a good case to follow to see how someone who barely survived Covid copes with the long term effects.

One year later: Did Scooter's death influence his friends and family to get vaccinated? Click here to jump to the update or jump to the comments According to social media posts (below), George "Scooter" Ward died of COVID on September 25, 2021. Scooter was well liked, but known as a political extremist by people who knew him. He posted a LOT of anti-vaxx rhetoric, far too much to post here, but we'll get an understanding of his mindset. Starting in August, we can tell it's going to be tough to get Scooter on board with vaccines. Oh man, he went straight to the "Mark of the Beast": Anti-vaxxers can't fathom that someone cares about them, too... Some math... Government shouldn't save lives? Icarus? Don't get vaccinated and don't eat bull crap. I'll agree with one of those two, for sure. Really, you're comparing vaccines to chemottherapy? That makes sense? Segregated stores? Seems like you enjoyed about 14 more days, until... And there it is. The announcement. And it's over. RIP Scooter. September 26, 2022 - One year later Scooter is still gone, but it's been one year since his story was profiled on SAV. I wanted to go back to his Facebook page and see if his death had influenced any of his 2,406 friends to protect themselves by getting the Covid-19 vaccine. Unsurprisingly, I got a little distracted, but I'll get there, I promise. I have never really gotten the selfie thing. Maybe it's an age thing. Maybe it's a lack of vanity. It's just not my jam, and generally I find selfies pretty ridiculous. There's a big difference between taking a selfie in your car or bathroom and taking a selfie in a beautiful place, doing something awesome and documenting your experience. Chinese eyes? Nah, bro... Moving along! Before he died, there were many prayers being said for Scooter. Obviously prayers weren't strong enough to fight the "Awful Satan Pneumonia." Apparently, there was no funeral. I wonder if they were trying to be cautious because of Covid. There were some nice tributes left on his Facebook wall. That's almost as good as a funeral, right? Yes Lisa, people go to the hospital when they're still alive. Otherwise, they go to the morgue. I also found some more posts that didn't make the original story. They're worth sharing. It's amazing to me that they are still up and Facebook hasn't removed them. Okay, I'm not actually surprised, but it IS frustrating. I didn't get in a boxcar to a virus protection camp. I got my Covid-19 vaccine and booster and guess where I am...NOT DEAD. Ah yes, the ever reliable Fox News. He was also anti-mask: He called this child abuse. Look at his last comment..."And no one is dying then it's not airborne. The virus is still fake. It's nothing more than the flu." He was a real charmer. Did Scooter's death influence any of his friends to get vaccinated? Surprisingly, yes! Out of his 2,406 Facebook friends, I found these two people who changed their tune! Congratulations Joe and Shane! I hope you followed through. The rest of his friends don't seem convinced. We're the super spreaders? I should note, Kathy did say in another comment that she IS vaccinated. This comment still doesn't sit well. In conclusion, I'm glad to see that Scooter's death helped influence at least two of his friends to get vaccinated against Covid-19. I hope there were more who changed their minds but maybe didn't feel comfortable expressing that on Facebook. Who knows? Scooter, like many others on SAV, was a victim of misinformation. We have a weapon to fight Covid: the vaccine. However there are many people still sharing misinformation about Covid-19/vaccines and THAT KILLS. It's time for us to start attacking misinformation at the source. It's time to go after the politicians who tell us the vaccine is deadly, while they're all vaccinated. It's time for us to go after the preachers who pray for their congregation members when they get Covid and say it's God's will, but still preach that the vaccine is the mark of the beast. It's time to go after the social media accounts of those who push the anti-vaccine agenda. How to do that, I can't say, but I think it's time we try to cut the stream of misinformation that's killing people. If we can't use these stories on SAV to demonstrate that Covid IS deadly then we need to find another way to help end this pandemic. Stop the misinformation!

Update: Rocky is no longer rockin' on this planet. Click here to jump to the update: We featured Rocky on HCAss back in early January. We took a peek to see how he's doing now and it looks like he's had a really "rocky" journey. Let me introduce you to Rocky Gaitan, who just turned 45 years old. Rocky is a former Marine and is head custodian at a high school in San Antonio, TX. Rocky and his wife Dalila Holguin-Gaitan have been married for 21 years and have two sons. Rocky and Dalila check so many anti-vaxxer boxes. Super political, hundreds of anti-vaxx posts and extremely religious. A goatee seems to be a major player in the anti-vaxx world, and not only does Rocky have one, but he also posted this goatee selfie (we didn't crop it 😂). Do you think they've learned their lesson? So many of them never do. Here are just some of the hundreds of anti-vaxx posts that Rocky and Dalila shared last year. You can pick any day on Dalila's timeline and you'll most likely find an anti-vaxx post. Rocky contracts Covid and is hospitalized on 11/19/21. Dalila posted a lot of prayers and religious messaging. GoFundMe is activated. After almost 2 months, he finally opens his eyes on 1/19/22. 1/26/22, they're hoping for rehabilitation soon. 4 days later Dalila posted this. WTF? On 2/2/22, he finally gets to rehabilitation. Just 12 days later, he's back in the hospital. 3/1/22 - Rehab didn't go well and he ended up with another infection and some other issues. He's currently still hospitalized. Dalila still proudly uses this as her FB profile photo. They're running a Rocky's BBQ Plate Fundraiser in a few weeks. Get better Rocky! We're hoping you make a full recovery and change your stance on vaccines. If this doesn't scare you to get vaccinated, nothing will. A vaccine is so much easier, not only than all of the pain and suffering Rocky is going through but that his entire family is enduring. Get vaccinated. Get your booster. SAV Update: Rocky didn't survive his fight with Covid. According to his obituary, he died August 5th, 2022. Thank you to our SAV readers who sent the update. The GoFundMe wasn't a big success. Only 7 people donated for a total of $540. They were $9460 short of their $10k goal. What a terrible way to spend the last of your days. He was hospitalized since November 19, 2021 and didn't pass until August 5th. I can't imagine the misery of spending 37 weeks or 259 days in the hospital...or the hospital bills. From the pictures above, it looks like it was a horrible existence. Think of all the moments he missed with his children and his wife while he was hospitalized and how many more he will miss in the future. Will his beloved Packers win another Super Bowl? He'll never find out. There are so many things that he will never get to experience because he refused a shot. Was it worth it? When will this end? How many more people have to die? How many people will suffer from long Covid? Covid isn't going away and I'm tired of people who scoff at the vaccine then ask for money and help after they are sick. We've been battling this virus for years now. We have the tools to fight it but people keep choosing to believe lies and misinformation instead of science and the consequences can be dire and/or deadly. If you're on Facebook be sure to visit our friends and the original author of Rocky's story at: Herman Cain Awards. Please, get vaccinated. It works. If you're unsure which booster you should take and when, here is a helpful article from Johns Hopkins, a trusted source. Visit Vaccines.gov for more information on where you can find the Covid-19 vaccine and boosters near you. Don't forget your flu shot, too!

According to this story, H. Scott Apley was an outspoken critic of COVID vaccinations. Five days before he died, he posted: “In 6 months, we’ve gone from the vax ending the pandemic—to you can still get covid even if vaxxed—to you can pass covid onto others even if vaxxed—to you can still die of covid even if vaxxed—to the unvaxxed are killing the vaxxed.” He refused to get a vaccination and his family has suffered the consequences. He leaves behind his wife, Melissa, who is COVID positive, as well as their infant son, Reid. Sept 22, 2022 Update: Longtime SAV member, Dark Angel found some more info to add to Mr. Apley's story and I thought it was worth an update. First, his GoGriftMe raised over $47,000! That won't last long now that his wife is a single mother to a bouncing toddler. His story made it on CNN! Click the picture below or here to watch the video. I read that people are trying to get around the misinformation labels on social media by using a carrot emoji in place of the word vaccine or shot. Is that why Apley told a doctor to shove a carrot where the sun don't shine? That's not a respectable way for a family man and government official to speak. He really didn't mince words. In a reply to a tweet from Judge Lina Hidalgo he said, "This tweet should have been titled 'Piece of shit dictator calling on all pussy ass snitches." Let's hope his son doesn't grow up with a mouth like his father. He also called journalist Ryan Lizza a piece of shit and a partisan hack. He said that it was "disgusting" that there were incentives for the vaccine. What was actually disgusting was his filthy mouth! I checked out his wife Melissa's Facebook page. There are lots of photos of her and their son (don't post those here, remember, no kids!). However, despite losing her husband to Covid, there wasn't a peep about her husband's death. I hope for the sake of their son that she is vaccinated. That little boy doesn't deserve to lose both parents. Please, get vaccinated, Melissa. If you're unsure of which vaccine or booster you should get or where, contact your local health department or visit https://www.vaccines.gov/ Don't forget your flu shot, too! Personal note from Vaxxylady: I'm sorry that it's been a while since there was a new post. I suffered a couple of pretty major setbacks that's going to greatly impact my life. Sometimes the hits keep on coming. I've asked Vaxman to step in so I can take a break while my husband and I make some tough decisions and regroup. I'll still be checking in though. I'm truly grateful for our loyal readers and your patience.

Our friends over at Herman Cain Awards on Facebook already posted about Yolanda but I know a lot of our users don't use Facebook and this is one you DO NOT want to miss. Ladies and gents, meet Yolanda. Click here to jump to the comment section Recently, her mom had a stroke. Her friend Lisa prays that Yolanda doesn't have Covid. Two days later, on Sept. 16th, she posts that she is sick and her mom is in the ICU with Covid. Chills, body aches, a high fever? I hope it's not Covid, Yolanda! It's definitely Covid. Her husband has it, too! They anointed each other's heads with oil. They should have anointed each other with the Covid-19 vaccine. Yolanda and her family are no strangers to Covid. In March she posted that she had been sick with Covid pneumonia for weeks and asked for prayers. She was still sick a month later and coughing up blood. In the beginning of the pandemic she asked people to keep her daughter in prayer because she had been exposed to Covid while at work. In November of 2020 Yolanda's mother was in the Covid ward with Covid pneumonia. Yes, this is the same mother who is currently in ICU with Covid! Yolanda's husband, Richard, went to pick her mom up and was sent to the Covid ward to get her. Later he had fever, chills, a headache, and muscle ache. Could it have been Covid? How does Yolanda feel about the vaccine? This post is from May of 2020 before the vaccine was available but she posted that Bill Gates had a plan "to make us take the mark/vaccine which tracks us & actually has Lucifer's name." She shared several videos from Dr. Mobeen Syed, better known as online as DrBeen or Koolbeans. Dr. Syed is part of the Front Line Covid-19 Critical Care Alliance, or FLCCC Alliance. The group promotes the use of Ivermectin and HCQ to treat Covid-19 and offers post-vaccine treatment for vaccine injured patients. She shared this video that says the Pfizer vaccine becomes DNA in liver cells. The Associated Press did a good article explaining how this study was misinterpreted and misused by the Christian broadcasting network, Daystar. (link here). Here is another from DrBeen. I looked up the actual study, found here, and it says "The most frequent neurological side effects of SARS‐CoV‐2 vaccines are headache, Guillain‐Barre syndrome (GBS), venous sinus thrombosis (VST), and transverse myelitis. Other neurological side effects occur in a much lower frequency." "Vaccine volunteer says that the covid-19 he took made him not feel God anymore and that he didn't feel he had a soul anymore after taking it!" YouYube removed the video but I found it on Bitchute. "For those that HAVE to see it on TV to believe it..." from shots of Tucker Carlson's show. The caption reads: "Study: Over time, the unvaxxed have a better immune response than those who have had multiple shots." I don't know what study he is referring to but I can share some studies that show that the opposite is true! Take your pick: New CDC Study: Vaccination Offers Higher Protection than Previous COVID-19 Infection Vaccines have up to 90% efficacy against severe COVID-19 for up to six months New COVID-19 Vaccine Effectiveness Data Showcase Protection Gained by 3rd and 4th Doses The efficacy and effectiveness of the COVID-19 vaccines in reducing infection, severity, hospitalization, and mortality: a systematic review Comparative vaccine effectiveness against severe COVID-19 over time in US hospital administrative data: a case-control study Ohhh, the Pfizer docs. More scare tactics. According to FactCheck.org, "The Pfizer/BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine showed a final efficacy of 91% against symptomatic illness in its phase 3 trial. Social media posts wrongly claim recently released Pfizer documents show the vaccine is “12% effective.” This video was removed from YouTube but I found it here. It shows a doctor* making some pretty outrageous claims. such as: "The Covid-19 vaccine is designed to turn us into genetically modified organisms" and we will cease to be humans. The vaccine was developed using a cancerous cell from aborted fetuses from the 1950s. The vaccine is a bioweapon. The vaccine could be used to reprogram us and take control over our mind and bodies. Hydrogel will be used to inject nanotechnology in your body which will spread, connect to artificial intelligence and your body will then be tracked forever. The vaccines for Covid-19 are NOT safe by any scientific methodology. They're injecting cancerous and mutagenic cell lines into our bodies. They're introducing different animal genomes into our bodies." *Update: Earlier I asked for help finding the doctor in the video. One of our SAV sleuths found the Doctor. She's Dr. Carrie Madej, an Osteopathic Internal Medicine Doctor practicing in McDonough, Georgia. Here is a link to her website, if you're curious. There's even a forum! I think we are all pretty clear on where Yolanda stands on the Covid-19 vaccine issue. Moving along, let's learn more about Yolanda's thoughts and beliefs. She shared a lot of Flat Earth posts, including one from SAV alum, Rob Skiba! Are aliens among us? Are they really just fallen angels? I've seen aliens! I don't think they are fallen angels, though. Yip Yip! She shared this video where Eugene Acres makes a death bed confession that the moon landing was faked. In the last few days, this video has gotten a lot attention on sites like Bitchute and the subreddit, r/conspiracy. Apparently the Oscars are an "Annual Satanic Award Ceremony." The end times are near! The antichrist has already arrived! Okay...just wow. She shared these videos from a YouTube channel called Founded Earth Brothers where they say, "If you're here to laugh at Flat/Biblical Earth believers, we welcome you and your criticism. We also laughed at these words and mainstream images associated with them. However, we don't laugh much anymore because proving all things has led us to discover they were right and the whole world has been deceived." If you want to really go down a rabbit hole, give their channel a visit. (The links work in case you want to see the videos yourself). A word of caution: if you're going to watch any of these videos, use incognito mode in your browser. TRUST me on this. We'll try and keep an eye on Yolanda and will post any updates we find. Get well soon Yolanda, Richard, and Yolanda's mom! Note from Vaxxylady: I'd like to be able to post updates and the story is ongoing. So please, don't reach out to Yolanda. Often, social media accounts are scrubbed and we never get to hear the end of the story. I want to see where this goes. September 27, 2022: So far, Yolanda has survived another round of Covid. Her Mom doesn't seem like she's in the clear yet. Check out the video she just posted. Apparently, a hydra, a never-dying parasite has been found in the Pfizer vaccine. Dear gosh...how does Facebook still allow this stuff? PLEASE report the video!! October 9th Update: Now her daughter is in the ER? Her family has had a lot of health problems lately! Still waiting to hear what happened to her Mom. And...she's still posting crazy shit. Oh Yolanda.

This is another story I started but never finished. He got put on the back burner because I had more compelling stories come along, like Sasquatch lady, the fervid shagger, and the Muslim-hater. Then he got forgotten about, buried in a folder of leads. Finally, this week my computer crashed and had to be sent to Apple TWICE. While I was waiting on my repairs I was trying to work on SAV using my ancient laptop and it wasn't going well. After all that, now it's finally Jonathan's time to shine. Jump to the comments It's not a new case but as we're two and a half years into this pandemic, some people are getting complacent about Covid precautions. This story is a good reminder to not let our guard down because Covid isn't going away. Please do your part to protect yourself, friends, and family by getting vaccinated and boosted. A lot of things about Jonathan have been scrubbed, including his obituary. However, because nothing is ever truly gone from the internet we have this Tweet. Apparently, Jonathan attended a family reunion where he was one of 16 that contracted Covid. Jonathan was sick for a week before he passed away from Covid-19. His funeral mass was live streamed. That was a safe way for his friends and family to celebrate his life and avoid Covid. There was still a good crowd in the church and everyone was masked. Beginning around minute 13, his brother stands up to do a reading. It was painful to watch. He clearly loved his brother and was in so much pain. His wife eventually goes up to comfort him and help him get through. I'll talk more about her at the end of the story. I don't think Jonathan was as avid antivaxxer like . He didn't share a lot of anti-vax posts but he did share misinformation. He took advice from America's Frontline Doctors who are against the Covid-19 vaccine and have peddled bogus Covid treatments. So that makes Jonathan qualifed for his spot on SAV. This post did not age well. Judging by the wording on this "study," I wouldn't give it too much credit. Look at the two columns, Democrat-Governed States; Lockdowns, Draconian Restrictions and GOP-Governed States; More Lax Restrictions or Open He shared this post regarding masks: He says, "Dr. Stella has had over 400 Covid-19 patients and NOT one has died...all are healthy after taking HCQ, zinc, z-pack and vitamin C." Who is Dr. Stella? Surely, you recognize her. If you don't, here's a quick rundown: She's one of the America's Frontline Doctors. She has claimed that the cure for Covid was the anti-parasite drug, hydroxychloroquine and that the Covid vaccine was "Luciferian." In addition to running a clinic, she also runs a church where "she seeks to remove spirits and demons from her patients and attributed gynecological diseases from demon sperm transmitted during sex dreams with supernatural beings." (Link to Newsweek article) I was wondering what she's been up to. This happened last November: The Texas Medical Board last month took a “corrective action” against Houston’s Dr. Stella Immanuel after she prescribed hydroxychloroquine to treat a patient’s COVID-19 infection without adequately explaining the health consequences, according to medical board records. Immanuel, who gained national attention last year for pushing the drug as a “cure” for COVID, previously told the Chronicle that she used hydroxychloroquine to treat hundreds of patients. In numerous studies, COVID patients have experienced no meaningful benefit from the medication, and some research points to a greater risk of heart rhythm problems. (Gill, 11/1) (link to article) She is currently suing CNN for $100 million dollars for defamation. (Link here) Litigation is still pending. You can read the court docket here if you're into that kind of stuff. Going back a few years, here is Dr. Stella giving a sermon in 2015. She says yoga is demonic (around minute 42). There's a lot to take and a lot of yelling in this sermon. In this video titled "Covid 19 The complete picture. Great, reset, Human 2.0, Mark of the beast" she keeps referring to sci-fi events. I wonder if she knows what the "fi" in sci-fi is short for...it's FICTION! Are you concerned about witches and warlocks? Apparently, they are everywhere! She even calls out Jay-Z for being a warlock! There are a whole lot of videos on her YouTube channel. Dive in if you dare. Here, CNN reporter Kaitlyn Collins asks Trump, who retweeted posts from Dr. Stella Immanuel, if he was aware that she made claims that masks don't work, doctors make medicine using DNA from aliens, and they're trying to create vaccines to make you immune from becoming religious. Trump responded, "I thought her voice was an important voice" and "I thought she was very impressive." I highly recommend you watch this (click the box and it will open to the CNN story). Yes, this is the Doctor who Jonathan was quoting and believed in. Getting back to Jonathan: He thought Facebook was keeping the truth from people and was upset that they removed his link to Breitbart. He said zinc and HCQ are the cures for Covid. If that was the case, why isn't he still alive? I thought Dr. Stella had all the answers! That's not how Bill Gates is reentering the dating pool. I heard he's mostly on BillionaireMatch.com or UglySchmucks.com. He was a proud Floridian. He loved the two angels of death: DeathSantis and Candeath I think he had a crush on Tomi Lahren. In case it wasn't clear which way he leaned politically... Guess what he thinks of Biden? I did some digging, trying to find more information on the family reunion where he got Covid. I didn't find that but I found his sister in law. After Jonathan's death she was begging people to get vaccinated. There were a lot of positive responses to her post. One person wrote that they had just gotten their vaccine and she said she was literally crying with joy. Several others wrote that Jonathan's story inspired them to also get vaccinated. So, let's leave the family out of this. Jonathan was an adult who made his own choices and let's not attack the family for his poor decision. Yes, it was a poor choice to have a family reunion at the peak of Covid, but without more information on whether or not the other family members were vaccinated, we should leave them be. RIP Jonathan

9/15/2022 There isn't really an update to this story but it was published by Vaxman one year ago today. I thought it was a good follow up after John Parney's story because both John and Damon wished for the vaccine after it was too late. I also decided to republish this because Vaxman had a sincere message for the SAV readers and I think it would be good to hear it again. Also, since John's story sparked a lot of good comments on the problems with the US healthcare system, this story demonstrates problems in the US justice system. Here is an interesting article from the ACLU on the injustice to Damon; it compliments the article that Vaxman posted below. Yes, Damon was an anti-vaxxer and it cost him his life but can we blame the man for having a severe mistrust of the government and authority figures? I can't help but wonder how spending 16 years in prison influenced his critical thinking and judgement skills. Maybe he would still have been an anti-vaxxer if he had never been wrongly convicted of murder, maybe not. We will never know. Here is a good comment from user pestkaj: "If anyone had a totally valid reason to distrust all authority it was certainly Damon. Sad that the system almost falsely murdered him and then his distrust of the system because of this, murdered him." Anyway, I thought it would be a good post to revisit until I can get a new story published. It's in the works. -Vaxxylady Original story, published September 15, 2021 According to this obituary and this story, Damon has died of COVID on August 31. 2021. According to these stories Damon was the 142nd Death Row inmate to be exonerated by DNA evidence in the United States. He spent 15 years on death row and was released in 2012. However, he was a COVID anti-vaxxer, which set in motion his second death sentence. He wasn't vaccinated and died of COVID. So, was Damon an anti-vaxxer or just hesitant? Let's see: Hmmm... Well, maybe he was shocked at Tomi Lahren's position and posted for interest: Ok, well, maybe he's just worried the safety of J&J.... Not looking good. Oh, he's an anti-vaxxer, and he's NOT going to get vaccinated at this point. Not when you think making vaccine passport is like the 4th Reich. ^^^ What's the rest of the math look like? At this point he has 18 days to get a stay on his intubation. The stay on his death didn't come. UPDATE: According to this article: https://www.nola.com/news/coronavirus/article_2b833a56-1644-11ec-80fb-b3f3ca1cbc76.html Damon had gotten his first shot and ended up in the hospital 2 days later will full blown COVID. So he was just a little too late. But he'd changed his mind!! RIP Damon. NOTE FROM VAXMAN: Please try not to directly insult the dead. They've already insulted themselves and, well, they're dead so they can't hear you. The LIVING Anti-vaxxers CAN hear you! Believe me they are visiting this site and writing me all pissed off. Like livid. Unless they are an extreme influencer like these radio hosts, we should try to keep it civil and a little less celebratory, and definitely shouldn't be calling these people names. Yes, they are all idiots, we know that. Let's try to be a bit more "constructive" and try to convince people who are still on the fence to GET VACCINATED.

I'm digging back into our submissions and found one we missed. Honestly, this one was tough to write and it's a sad tale. John and his wife Paula owned the Quincy Diner in Michigan. On Facebook it was described as, "A set down restaurant with all the goodness of home cooking." You could also get breakfast all day, as you SHOULD in any good diner. Now all I can think about is waffles. Moving along... Sadly, John's wife, Paula, was diagnosed with Stage 4 colon cancer. John worked hard to take care of her while she was receiving chemotherapy. It sounds like she was going through hell and fighting hard to beat cancer. Both Paula and John were hard workers. Paula worked full time in the Reading Community Schools and helped run the restaurant. John worked full time at a casino and did a full shift each day at their diner. In the middle of Paula's fight with cancer, there was another battle happening: Covid-19. Michigan Governor, Gretchen Whitmer, issued a series of mandatory shutdowns, including indoor dining, due to surging Covid cases. Paula was unable to continue working because of her cancer and with the pandemic forcing the temporary closure of the diner, most of John and Paula's income disappeared. John decided the best way to provide for his family was to continue the operation of his business, despite the indoor dining ban. It's reported that they followed protocols for mask-wearing, separated tables for social distancing, kept doors open, and did extra thorough cleaning. It seems risky, especially back in mid-2021, to work in a small diner and a casino while taking care of a highly-vulnerable cancer patient. However, I can appreciate how desperate and scared they must have been. Medical bills and other expenses were probably piling up. Paula was receiving treatment in Ann Arbor. That's a three hour round trip. Add the time John had to take off work, gas, food, parking, etc. I'm sure they were suffering hardships. Cancer doesn't care about your financial obligations. Eventually, Covid-19 caught up with John. It's not really a surprise. He was working two jobs and constantly around the public, he was probably exhausted from taking care of his wife, he was 62 and not exactly a picture of health, AND...he was not vaccinated. This is from their GoFundMe, confirming that John was not vaccinated. It seems so foolishly reckless to be unvaccinated and working TWO jobs that could constantly expose you to Covid especially while your vulnerable spouse is battling cancer. While I can understand the need to work and maintain an income, I can't understand the denial of the free protection of the vaccine. John spent his last birthday in the hospital. There weren't many more posts from John but his family told his story in their GoFundMe. After three days in the hospital with Covid, John was well enough to return home. However, things quickly turned. After two days home he was found "incoherent and confused in his bed." He was rushed to the hospital where he would remain for 43 days before finally succumbing to his illness on December 14, 2021. Their GoFundMe raised over $25,000. I'm sure that was a tiny drop in a very large bucket of medical debt considering his lengthy hospital stay and her cancer treatments. After he passed, his story went international: John wasn't a prolific anti-vaxxer. However, he did share a few posts that gave us a good idea on how he felt towards Covid and masks. There is this post which says that masks are a form of psychological manipulation. He also shared this misleading post about tuberculosis deaths and masks. I've posted about this elsewhere in SAV. There is some truth in this but in the US, Covid-19 is much more prevalent than tuberculosis. Most of the tuberculosis deaths have been in overpopulated and impoverished areas around the world where citizens lack basic medical care. (Reuters fact check here) An odd post considering his wife was actually receiving chemotherapy... Then he shared this video from ICU Nurse Nicole Whitley. It's full of vaccine misinformation and scare tactics. It has been removed from Youtube but is still widely available on many other sites, including the ever-reliable Bitchute.com. Watch at your own risk (click John's post below or the Bitchute link). It's frustrating that he would trust the hospitals and doctors to try and save his terminally-ill wife but didn't trust their advice to get vaccinated. The former Marine said Covid was "worse than any training he endured in the military." He eventually decided to get vaccinated. However, he was already too sick and it was too late. There is no happy ending for anyone in this story. Paula lost her battle with cancer and passed away on May 8, 2022. There was a fire at the diner in April and it has remained closed. I find this story so sad. Paula spent the end of her life fighting cancer and lost her husband to a preventable illness. I can't imagine the pain she must have suffered, emotionally and physically. I don't know if John would have willingly closed his business during the shutdowns if it weren't for his financial concerns and the hardships created by his wife's cancer. Obviously it's not her fault. Maybe he kept it open, like so many other business who defied lock down orders, because he thought it was an invasion of his rights and liberties. I can't say either way, only John could and he can't tell us now. Regardless, I think it demonstrates how messed up the US healthcare system is. Nobody should be put in dire, financial straights because of health problems, especially the ones we have no control over like cancer and other diseases. That's something I am not going to get into in this article. It's just something to think about. RIP John. Please get vaccinated for Covid-19 and don't forget your flu shot, too! If you are unsure of when you should get your booster, here is a good resource from the CDC. It was updated just a few days ago. If you need help finding a booster near you, visit https://www.vaccines.gov/search/. On a personal note, I received my Moderna bivalent booster almost 24 hours ago. Besides a bit of tenderness at the injection site, I'm feeling good! It certainly beats getting long Covid or dying of Covid.

You're right Clay. Your story may not be over, but your life is. Clay was submitted to SAV by one of our readers who also submitted it to the HCAs on Reddit. Normally, I don't post things that have already been on Reddit or other sites similar to SAV, but since the reader submitted it and I was able to grab my own screenshots, I went with it. Plus, his story is kind of rage-inducing. Make sure you read all the way to the end. (Jump to comments here) On September 5th, Clay's sister announced that Clay was in the ICU with Covid. Clay died on September 8th, 2022 at Christus St. Francis Cabrini Hospital. He may have died of Covid but at least he wasn't afraid. What is EFFING hilarious is that this meme he shared features Kristofer Weston who is a gay, kink & bondage, porn star. Clay had no clue which will be more relevant when you keep scrolling. God didn't save Clay from the virus. Amen. I don't think Sam Elliott actually said this but I DO agree. I guess he really had a thing for Sam Elliott. You may remember Gary Rains from a SAV story in July. He HATED Yellowstone. Clay felt the opposite and shared a lot of Yellowstone posts. Guess what is coming back on November 13th, 2022. Season 5 of Yellowstone! Too bad Clay won't be able to see the continuing saga of the Dutton family. I'll be watching though, because I took the Covid-19 vaccine and boosters and I'm still alive! I'm getting my bivalent booster next week because I'm NOT going to miss Yellowstone, Handmaid's Tale (out Sept. 14th), or, THE REST OF MY LIFE! Clay shared many posts to reiterate how much he doesn't care about your opinion or what anyone thinks of him. I think Clay wins the award for the most number of posts that aged VERY poorly! Oh look, is that Sam Elliott again?!? Sorry Clay, God did NOT carry you through 2022. You know what would have, though? A Covid-19 vaccine! He hated President Biden. He was a Trumper! He shared the video of Trump singing along to "We're Not Gonna Take It." It was from 2016 and it's as awkward as you would think. Watch it here if you want to cringe. Since then, Dee Snyder has blasted Trump and his ”QANON MAGAT FASCISTS.” Dee said: “Every time you sing ‘We’re Not Gonna Take It’ remember it was written by a cross-dressing, libtard, tree-hugging half-Jew who HATES everything you stand for.” (Link here) He believed in Jesus. He also believed in proudly flying the Confederate flag. WTF is this?!? He said, "Giddy up cowboys." Wow. That's seriously hateful and disgusting. He also didn't approve of gays or gay marriage. He was against abortion and shared a couple of posts about it. Tell that to the 10 year old who was raped and impregnated. (Link to story) What about the woman who was forced to give birth to a baby without a brain or skull? (link to story) What about the 11 year old who was raped and forced to give birth? (Link to story) I could go on with more examples but it's making me angry, so yes, Clay, PLEASE tell me more about women throwing tantrums. Oh wait, he can't tell me anything because he's D-E-A-D. Normally, I would try and write some kind of witty conclusion or summary but I just don't have it in me. Given those last few posts that I shared from Clay, I'm sure you understand why. I WILL say that I'm really happy to see so many of you commenting about getting the new booster that is available. If you need help locating a facility that offers Covid vaccines or the new bivalent boosters, visit Vaccines.gov. Stay safe and healthy. RIP Clay. P.S. Please don't harass the family members. If they aren't anti-vaxxers they don't deserve it. I have anti-vaxxer family members and you all know how I feel about vaccines, obviously. So please, stick to Clay and leave his sister and kids out of this. Thank you.

According to this obituary, William "Bill" Chapman died on March 12, 2022. He was a husband to Susan, a father of four, and a grandfather to four. Bill made his living in the tire business. He began his tire career at the family business, Tom Chapman Tire Service, and eventually started his own company, Diamond Back Classic Radials. There's no mention of Covid in his obituary. If you ask his wife how he died, she'll tell you it was "due to a poisonous protocol." The death certificate listed his cause of death as kidney failure and ventilator pneumonia. Jump to comments here Bill's Facebook page was benign, or maybe it was scrubbed. Hard to say. However, Susan's Facebook page is FULL of anti-vaccine posts. We can't say whether or not Bill was vaccinated but given how outspoken his wife is about Covid vaccines AND that he died of Covid, I would bet money that he wasn't vaccinated. I could be wrong, though. According to a story on ProtocolKills.com, Susan was out of town when Bill came down with Covid and he was eventually admitted to the hospital. Susan told Bill's doctors that he wasn't to receive Remdesivir or be put on a ventilator; however, Bill had already agreed to treatments from his doctors. Susan also told the hospital that she wanted Bill to receive Ivermectin, but they refused. Soon after being admitted to the hospital he was placed on a ventilator and eventually passed away. Susan is contemplating a class action lawsuit. While Bill was quiet on Facebook, his wife had PLENTY to say regarding Covid. Susan shared this sad story about a child who had a mini heart attack. She says "Many of us know why this happened." However, that's not the REAL story. This child was in the hospital after a series of mini-strokes, NOT mini heart attacks. It also happened before Covid existed, the article is dated May 10, 2018. Here is the REAL story from the Seattle Children's Hospital. It's just another case of someone stealing an image from the internet and adding their own story before passing it around social media. Here Susan questions "Why are so many young people dying after the shots. Aneurysms, heart and lung issues, etc." She posts about "mystery deaths." I couldn't find any legitimate information to back up the claim from Redvoicemedia.com that 400 athletes collapsed and died in six months and Reuters has debunked this claim, link is here. Also, Brett Strekta died of a seizure but I couldn't find anything proving that his seizure was related to the Covid-19 vaccine. My neighbor also died of a seizure. She was in her mid-40's, a runner, relatively healthy. That was 20 years ago. I can't blame that on the Covid vaccine! According to this article, and this article, there HAS been an increase in pacemakers...because so many people have damaged their hearts from Covid, which "is a multisystem illness that can affect the <cardiovascular system" according to National Library of Medicine. She shared the link to this video on Bitchute that says "We found nano-routers and nano-antennas in ALL the vaccines we tested." She shared this article titled, "Covid Vaccine Quacks and Charlatans Promoting Ba.5 Booster" Susan says, "Finally the truth." This article blames everyone BUT Trump for the 'Covid Vaccine Disaster and Coverup.' Some of those include: Dr. Fauci, The CDC and WHO, Biden and the Biden administration, the media, doctors across America, and Big Pharma. Holy moly...that's not what this study says. She shared another piece from Redvoicemedia.com. They have misrepresented the data and the headline is inaccurate, misleading, and fear-inducing. Again, Reuters debunked this. Here is an excerpt explaining why: "Professor of Biostatistics Elizabeth Williamson told Reuters via email that the “graph in no way indicated a negative vaccine effectiveness”. She explained: “In a world where most people are vaccinated… we would expect to see the proportion of vaccinated people who die from COVID-19 to be lower than the proportion of unvaccinated people who die from COVID-19. At the same time, we would expect the number of vaccinated people dying from COVID-19 to be higher than unvaccinated, simply because there are so many more vaccinated people... In addition, those at the highest risk are also the most likely to be vaccinated, exacerbating this phenomenon.” Yes, people with the boosters can still get Covid and it DOES protect them. The booster has been proven safe and helps prevent severe infection and death. It does seem like we may move towards a yearly Covid booster (article here), like the annual flu shot. I'll still get mine because it sure as heck beats dying. She says it's all about "Big Pharma." There's a lot going on in this post! According to an article from Johns Hopkins, "Anti-vaccination fringe groups have attempted to spin false stories using VAERS data, adding to misinformation about the safety of COVID-19 vaccinations." Here is another article from Wayne Root. His "honest doctor" is anonymous. This "honest doctor" sure makes a lot of claims but offers no sources or data. Nothing about this "doctor" or this article is credible. She really lays it all out here: Vaccines for the US military are nothing new. In fact, they've been receiving vaccines for 230 years! It's not a leftist agenda to destroy the military. Here is a good table outlining the vaccination schedule for military members. "Corona Apartheid!" No, it's not a tragedy that Novak Djokovic had to withdraw from the US Open. He chose not to be vaccinated and there are laws and restrictions regarding international travel. He knew the rules and made his decision. That's not a tragedy. Moving along now... Susan shared that Trump won: She shared a lot of positive Trump posts. No doubt how she feels about him! She says that "Trump is a blue collar billionaire." I'm sorry but there is nothing blue collar about that man. The photos of a "fit" and healthy, tough-guy Trump always crack me up. SO far from reality! Did Susan's friend call the IRS the Gestapo?? I'll help Susan, like I did our Sasquatch-seeking friend Danielle, regarding the IRS: The IRS is planning on hiring approximately 87,000 new employees over the next DECADE because they are currently understaffed and they also need to prepare for a wave of retirements coming over the next five years. They won't all be new, armed agents. Actually, out of the entire IRS only 2,100 SPECIAL agents are authorized to carry firearms. They have a variety of positions to be filled from office support to IT personnel. Sources: Article from Time Magazine and Reuters.com Well, I think we know exactly where Susan sits on the Covid vaccine debate. For the rest of us, here is a useful article from NPR explaining the new booster that is available, who should take it, and when. As a Covid-19 virgin and immunocompromised person, I'm hoping to get mine asap. I don't want to end up like Bill or one of the other sad, dead, antivaxxers on SAV. I'm not taking my chances. You shouldn't either. RIP Bill.

As we continue to tell old Herman Cain Award stories, we also get a peek in to see how the COVID widows are moving on. We see some, like fan-favorite Shari Snyder, not able to spend a day without confessing her love for her deceased husband, while others move on fairly quickly. We all grieve in different ways but these next three widows moved on quite fast. Timothy "Tim" Ingland, 50, Murray, KY Tim married Kayla on August 7, 2021, and was dead a little over a month later. He had one daughter and she had two sons, all from previous relationships. He only had a couple of posts that raised our eyebrows, but, it’s the drama that ensued… Name: Timothy "Tim" Ingland Age: 50 Home: Murray, KY Work: Maintenance Worker Died: September 15, 2021 Let's start with these questionable posts. They always seem to be Trump Humpers. What does a Patriot Guard Rider do? Do I even care? Nope. He got married to Kayla on August 7, 2021. It sounds like their wedding was a super spreader event. He went from married to dead in 34 days. We all have needs. Kayla is now Mrs. Clymer. We all tend to have a type but how did she find an exact replica in two months? Rickey Carter Jr., 45, Raceland, KY Rickey celebrated his 3rd anniversary with April Carter. They both have two children from previous marriages and one granddaughter that he absolutely adored. Name: Rickey Carter Jr. Age: 45 Home: Raceland, KY Work: Store Manager Died: January 4, 2022 Let's start with the antivax stuff first. He stepped in when another man didn't. And then this happened. She's having a really tough time without him. :( In March 2022, Mike makes his move. It's FB official. She's still missing her Rickey. Will Mike officially win her over? We'll have to wait and see. Michael "Mike" Rodriguez, 31, Yuba City, CA Michael "Mike" Rodriguez got engaged to Sabrina Nichols in 2020. They both have a child from their previous relationships. Mike seemed to understand the dangers of contracting COVID and by September 2021, he started asking friends for vaccine advice. Name: Michael Rodriguez Age: 31 Home: Yuba City, CA Work: Owner Auto Glass Company Died: December 15, 2021 Ah, new love. They're both Trumpees. This is where he asked for advice and got some good responses. A week later, Mike shared this. His fiancé gives him absolutely HORRIBLE advice. In 10 days it went from "you got this babe" to planning a funeral. When we found this, we had to keep digging to see if this is what we think it is. Wait, what? Not only did she move on, but 6 months after her fiance died, she is already expecting. And based on the due date, she got pregnant 3 months after her fiancé died. That is some fast moving. Our HCA spies kept digging and Sabrina moved on even quicker than we thought. Major drama.
