Nearly fifty-thousand medicare patients died soon after receiving COVID-19 vaccine.

Data on vaccine-related deaths have been misrepresented to show that around fifty thousand medicare patients died due to the COVID-19 vaccines.

Data on vaccine-related deaths have been misrepresented to show that around fifty thousand medicare patients died due to the COVID-19 vaccines.The content of the presentation released by the Ohio-based attorney Thomas Renz states that according to the government data provided by the whistleblowers, 48,465 deaths were recorded within 14 days of COVID-19 vaccination among Medicare patients. However, we did not find these figures on any official U.S. database. While some individuals may have died or experienced adverse reactions after receiving the vaccine, it does not mean that the vaccine itself has directly caused illness or fatalities.

The COVID-19 vaccine can cause various side effects such as fatigue, body pain, and fever. These are typical signs indicating that the body is building protection against the virus.

The reports of death added into the CMS system do not prove that those people died due to the vaccine. According to the website, the data is incomplete and does not reflect the full extent of COVID-19’s impact. In fact, the death rate among long-term care facility (LTCF) residents has reduced significantly after the vaccine rollout.

According to the New York Times, extremist organizations have been spreading false information to undermine the vaccines since mass vaccine drives started in December 2020. They have been using the raw data from publicly available systems like VAERS, which is meant for scientists and medical professionals, to further their agenda by interpreting it as a danger to human beings.

Furthermore, an investigation carried out by the Washington Post notes that attorney Thomas Renz has been constantly involved in spreading various misinformation about the COVID-19 vaccine. Therefore, we rule out the claim to be both false and misleading.

The COVID-19 pandemic has given rise to a lot of potentially dangerous misinformation. For reliable advice on COVID-19, including symptoms, prevention, and available treatment, please refer to the World Health Organization or your national healthcare authority.
