Elon Musk said he felt like he was “dying” after his second COVID-19 booster shot.
“I had major side effects from my second booster,” the new Twitter boss wrote in a social media post. “I felt like I was dying for several days. I hope there won’t be any permanent damage, but I don’t know.
Musk did not provide medical records to support his claim. He also didn’t say which company COVID booster he took.
The Epoch Times cannot independently verify its claim.
Moderna and Pfizer did not respond to requests for comment at the time of the article’s publication.
He took Johnson & Johnson’s COVID-19 vaccine and the first mRNA booster with no side effects, Musk said.
Musk posted a series of messages on Twitter in response to a message from Rasmussen Reports that criticizes the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) narrative that major side effects after COVID vaccination are “rare.”
Americans link COVID vaccines to mysterious deaths
A new Rasmussen Reports poll, released Jan. 2 and based on a representative sample of 1,000 U.S. adults, shows nearly half of Americans think COVID-19 vaccines have likely caused a “significant number of unexplained deaths,” while that more than a quarter said they personally know someone whose death may have been caused by the side effects of vaccination.
Pollsters asked people a series of questions, including whether they had received the COVID-19 vaccine and how likely side effects from the vaccine “have caused a significant number of unexplained deaths.”
Forty-nine percent of respondents said they thought it was “likely” that side effects from the COVID-19 vaccine were responsible for a significant number of deaths that remain unexplained.
A large majority (71%) said they had been vaccinated against COVID-19 themselves, with 38% believing that vaccine side effects are at least somewhat likely to be responsible for unexplained deaths.
Of the 26% who said they had not been bitten, 77% said it was at least somewhat likely that side effects from vaccination caused a significant number of mystery deaths, according to the survey.
Another question was whether people thought there were ‘legitimate reasons’ to be concerned about the safety of COVID-19 vaccines, or whether people concerned about vaccine safety were ‘spreading conspiracy theories’. .
Forty-eight percent of respondents said they believe there are legitimate reasons to be concerned about the safety of the COVID-19 vaccine, 37 percent believe that people who are concerned about this issue are pushing the conspiracy theories, and 15 percent are unsure.
