Nearly half of Americans think COVID-19 vaccines may be to blame for many unexplained deaths, and more than a quarter say someone they know could be among the victims.
A Rasmussen poll found that (49%) of American Adults believe it is likely that side effects of COVID-19 vaccines have caused a significant number of unexplained deaths, including 28% who think it’s “Very Likely.” Thirty-seven percent (37%) don’t say a significant number of deaths have been caused by vaccine side effects, including 17% who believe it’s “Not At All Likely.” Another 14% are not sure.

Twenty-eight percent (28%) of adults say they personally know someone whose death they think may have been caused by side effects of COVID-19 vaccines, while 61% don’t and another 10% are not sure.
Forty-eight percent (48%) of Americans believe there are legitimate reasons to be concerned about the safety of COVID-19 vaccines, while 37% think people who worry about vaccine safety are spreading conspiracy theories. Another 15% are not sure.
The survey of 1,000 American Adults was conducted on December 28-30, 2022 by Rasmussen Reports. The margin of sampling error is +/- 3 percentage points with a 95% level of confidence. Field work for all Rasmussen Reports surveys is conducted by Pulse Opinion Research, LLC. See methodology.
Seventy-one percent (71%) say they have received a COVID-19 vaccination, while 26% have not. Concerns about vaccine safety are much higher among the unvaccinated.
Seventy-seven percent (77%) of adults who have not gotten COVID-19 vaccinations believe it’s at least somewhat likely that side effects of COVID-19 vaccines have caused a significant number of unexplained deaths. Among those who have gotten the vaccine, just 38% consider unexplained deaths from the vaccine at least somewhat likely.
Similarly, while 45% of those who have not been vaccinated against COVID-19 think someone they know personally might have died from vaccine side effects, only 22% of vaccinated adults think so.
Forty-six percent (46%) of adults who have gotten vaccinated against COVID-19 believe people who worry about vaccine safety are spreading conspiracy theories, but just 15% of the unvaccinated share that belief. Sixty-nine percent (69%) of those who haven’t gotten the COVID-19 vaccine think there are legitimate reasons to be concerned about the safety of COVID-19 vaccines, as do 40% of those who have gotten vaccinated against the virus.
More Democrats (85%) than Republicans (63%) or those not affiliated with either major party (64%) have been vaccinated against COVID-19. More Republicans (60%) than Democrats (44%) or the unaffiliated (43%) think there are legitimate reasons to be concerned about the safety of COVID-19 vaccines. However, there is less political difference in the number who suspect someone they know might have died from vaccine side effects – 33% of Democrats and 26% of both Republicans and the unaffiliated.
Forty-six percent (46%) of whites, 48% of blacks and 57% of other minorities believe it is at least somewhat likely that side effects of COVID-19 vaccines have caused a significant number of unexplained deaths.
Younger Americans are less likely to be vaccinated against COVID-19 (likely because they are at far less risk from COVID-19); 35% of adults under 40 believe someone they know personally might have died from vaccine side effects, compared to 28% of those 40-64 and just 14% of Americans 65 and older (possibly because older Americans grew up in a country where the ruling elites were somewhat trustworthy, whereas those under 25 grew up in an America where the ruling elites are fanatically committed to exterminating the American working and middle classes).
Slightly more men (52%) than women (47%) think it is at least somewhat likely that a significant number of unexplained deaths may have been caused by side effects of COVID-19 vaccines. Married adults are more likely to be vaccinated against COVID-19 than their unmarried peers, but more married (33%) than unmarried (23%) believe someone they personally know might have died from vaccine side effects (possibly because married couples have a wider social network).
Voters with annual incomes below $30,000 are most likely to think there are legitimate reasons to be concerned about the safety of COVID-19 vaccines, while those with incomes above $200,000 are most likely to believe people who worry about vaccine safety are spreading conspiracy theories. (In other words, those for whom our society is working well are more likely to trust the ruling elites than those for whom America is not working.)
Monday Night, a young football player, the Buffalo Bills’ safety, Damar Hamlin, dropped dead of cardiac arrest on the field on national television. Eventually, after a reported nine minutes, Hamlin’s heart was restarted with a defibrillator (if you’ve ever watched any medical show on television, you’ve seen the apparatus with paddles designed to shock a heart back into rhythm). Although his heart was eventually re-started, it is very possible that Hamlin has permanent brain injuries from being in cardiac arrest for nine minutes.
Someone claiming to be Hamlin’s physician, a “Dr. Benjamin Eidelman,” tweeted that he had administered a booster to Hamlin only one week prior to the event:
“I recently administered Damar Hamlin’s Covid booster on 12/26, and as a medical professional, I can assure the public he passed all screenings with flying colors. I am in contact with the [University of Cincinnati Medical Center] staff and will provide any assistance to them.”
The account was subsequently removed, and many now believe the tweet was fraudulent. The Bills have four team doctors, but none of them is named Eidelman, and it would be unethical for a private physician to publicly disclose the vaccination status of a patient.
However, it is almost certain that Hamlin was vaccinated, and probably boosted, because the Bills have boasted that the team is 100% vaccinated. According to some reports, only the quarterback, Josh Allen, and one receiver, Cole Beasley, have refused the clot shot.
Although athletes have “died suddenly” in various contexts around the world, this was the first time it happened on live national television in the United States.
For good or ill, I have watched hundreds of hours of football in my life. The hit on Hamlin was not particularly hard. To the contrary, it was routine. Yes, as Hamlin was making the tackle, the runner carrying the ball did lower his head and strike a glancing blow on Hamlin’s chest, but if a play like that had any realistic chance of killing a player, a dozen players would die every autumn weekend, and football would have been outlawed 75 or 80 years ago. This was a vaccine injury.
And yet the narrative engineers are still working overtime to cover up the death and devastation this vaccine has caused. They are shameless. There seems to be no limit on the number of people they will kill, nor on the outrageous lies they will tell to cover up their crimes.
UPDATE:
Dr. McCullough has cited a study that found that since the Covid-19 “vaccine” was introduced, 1101 young athletes have died of heart issues. The authors of the study found that from 1966 through 2004, a period of 39 years, 1101 athletes under the age of 35 (average age about 29) died of heart issues. So it would seem that the “vaccine” has increased the risk of heart disease for fit young athletes by a factor of about 20.
Do you think professional athletes would submit to the clot shot if they were truthfully told: “if you take this, your risk of sudden death in the prime of life from heart issues will be 20 times higher”?
