A 41-year-old health worker in Portugal suffered a “sudden death” just two days after receiving the Pfizer vaccine. According to the EuroWeeklynews, Sonia Azevedo, a mum-of-two had no prior health conditions and hadn’t had any adverse effects after getting the Pfizer jab. Sonia worked at the Institute of Oncology in Porto before she collapsed on New Year’s Day. An autopsy is expected to be completed in the coming days to establish the cause of death.

The PCR test proven to be unreliable continues to provide shock infection rates used to justify a lockdown and experimental vaccines. Remember only 2 years ago the definition of a disease was you had to show symptoms, now the new invention to scare people is call healthy people with no symptoms of a disease "asymptomatic" something dismissed by all medical professionals previously but now only those with ethics. I will not go anywhere near this gene editing vaccine. It seems anyone dying of anything is linked to covid19 if you rely on such tests but if you die within days of receiving a vaccine previously untested on humans you need to really find out more information rather than protect the population from more experiments. This is an abuse of human rights. Something is very wrong with this.

"a mum-of-two had no prior health conditions and hadn’t had any adverse effects after getting the Pfizer jab."

How can you say there were no adverse effects? She died. "Death" is the side-effect in this case.

You shouldn't use "died after receiving vaccine" as your headline if you're going to put "unknown cause of death" in your text. That's very misleading for those that are against something so important such as health care in a time like this. Very low blow and misleading. That's not journalism.

What a sensational headline, and putting two and two together to make 5!! Be sure to publish the autopsy results.

It’s funny how people are worried about vaccines today but have taken probably 10 vaccines as children or later. Those vaccines were made in the 70 s and 80 s when technology and knowledge was very little now today in 2021 you want to talk about bad vaccines lol come on get real , the funnier thing is the most people who are against the vaccines are they people who use recreational drugs like coccaine and acid those are ok to put in your body there safe right lol people need to wake up, coronavirus is not new there have been virus like this before and people who are uneducated on this are spreading rumours that covid is fake wake up

"died after receiving vaccine" is not a misleading headline. They didn't die before the vaccine. It can still be an "unknown cause of death"

The mRNA technology of breaking and splicing human genes in these Pfizer and Moderna vaccines has never been used on humans. The virologist Dr. Romeo Quijano warned of "the danger that the vaccine might actually “enhance” the pathogenicity of the virus, or make it more aggressive" with disasterous results. Its interferon responses "may promote blood coagulation and pathological thrombus formation"...

We will, of course, all die after receiving the vaccine, as will those who don’t receive it. It’s a matter of when. The important point here is that the probability of dying of covid-19 or it’s complications is much increased by not having the vaccine.

Totally irresponsible headline. Shame on you. We have enough conspiracy theorists and anti-vaxers who are compromising our chances of getting rid of this virus. Until the autopsy repirt is issued no-one knows what this poor lady died of.

By Lynn from Algarve on 05 Jan 2021, 18:33

This is a totally irresponsible headline. We have enough conspiracy theorists and anti-vaxers who are intent on scuppering our chances of defeating this virus without your giving them unfounded ammunition. Until the autopsy report is issued we do not know how this poor lady died. You should be ashamed of such shoddy reporting.

By Lynn from Algarve on 05 Jan 2021, 18:38

Why is this story not front and center on Portuguese news sites?
Are they trying to bury this story?

By Paula from Algarve on 05 Jan 2021, 20:00

In my opinion, the title is not misleading.

As long as the covid vaccine saves even one life, it doesn't matter how many people it kills

By Ines from Other on 05 Jan 2021, 22:26

If sudden death is one of the short term side effects of taking the covid vax, what are the long term side effects, for those who manage to survive the first few days?

By Carmo from Algarve on 05 Jan 2021, 22:32

Why is the date on this article 5/1/2021

By joan c butler from USA on 06 Jan 2021, 00:15

Saying she died 2 days after the vaccine is misleading? Yet saying someone died 28 days after having a positive covid test is not... hahaha what a bunch of jokers. Blindly defending the vaccine. Takes a special kind of moron to not want to question things like this

Hur i helvete vet folk detta??? När nyheten kom ut i dag og dementerat i dag, före nyheterna kom ut??? Fåfunn av idioter som vanlig!!!

By Eeik from Algarve on 06 Jan 2021, 02:03

Misleading story until the autopsy comes in. She could of died from anything at this point...

By Lindsey Altman from USA on 06 Jan 2021, 05:06

There will always be more vaccines since the first one won’t work. Which is why they have a RT-PCR test in the first place. Once there’s a test, there’ll always be a mythical virus to test for, therefore the virus will never leave or dissipate, it will just eternally mutate which is the central part to the psy-op.

No matter how many people are sickened or die from vaccines or radiation or a combination of both, the mutating virus as the invisible enemy will always be blamed.

Irresponsible, unprofessional, sensationalistic "journalism" - as sad as the death is of this woman, you'd better inform your readers with the autopsy results - because, as a serious journalist, of course you will make sure to follow up on this story? I will be waiting.

By Bix from Lisbon on 06 Jan 2021, 22:19

For the person from the USA that doesn’t understand the date on the article; in Europe and elsewhere the actual day of the month comes first, then the month and then the year.

By Tsipi Tzion from Other on 07 Jan 2021, 14:16

very irresponsible headline the autopsy confirmed cause of death no relation to vaccine yet we have no follow up what a suprise

By David Lennox from Lisbon on 10 Jan 2021, 00:50

This is not the only sudden death a few days after taking the vaccine - a medical doctor without health issues also died the other day. There is no use screaming at the messenger here. The vaccine is something I will avoid until the end if possible. Vitamin D is a much better safeguard against covid - 100% safe and a proven 54% increase in covid resistance. Governments that force people to stay indoors are literally murdering people - sunshine is Vitamin D, fresh air is health. And yes, keep washing your hands.

Well said Ms BC!!!!

By Kevin Meade from UK on 12 Jan 2021, 00:29

It is not a vaccine. it does not comoly to the legal requirements of a vaccine that should "inhibit spread, and promite immune response" pfizer literature tells you this

go watch this video from eminen virologists be informed

By paul milsom from Alentejo on 16 Jan 2021, 12:44

Let's review the comments here.......

Those who are querying the safety of these experimental vaccines give educated, scientific reasoning to substantiate their decision.

Those who are willing to accept an experimental vaccine can only resort to the government trained insults of 'anti vax' and 'conspiracy theorists'.

This story is disproved the writer (Lusa) and your editors should resign. Advertisers take notice. This is a false story. https://healthfeedback.org/claimreview/covid-19-vaccine-did-not-cause-the-death-of-a-portuguese-woman-contrary-to-social-media-posts-suggestions/
