PONCHATOULA, Louisiana (LifeSiteNews) – A healthy 33-year-old husband and father died last week of an autoimmune reaction that his doctors say is linked to Pfizer’s COVID vaccine.
Though he sought medical advice, his health deteriorated for weeks before he was finally hospitalized in October.
“Brandon had no prior medical history,” his wife, Jessica Pollet, told the St. Charles Herald Guide. “After his second Pfizer vaccine, Brandon developed a headache right away then fever 48 hours after.”
Pollet was first hospitalized between October 21 and November 7 and was diagnosed with Still’s Disease, a rare, possibly life-threatening autoimmune disease. He remained seriously ill with high fevers even after returning home, however, and was re-admitted December 14.
In December, Pollet was also diagnosed with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLC), another deadly immune disorder, his wife said. His treatments included chemotherapy, steroids, and daily infusions with blood products and insulin, among other things.
“Unfortunately, none of the usual treatments have worked,” Mrs. Pollet said. “The doctors have agreed that the COVID vaccine caused an immune response that led to the development of the autoimmune disease and HLH.”
“The community has organized blood drives and a GoFundMe account to support Brandon and to help us pay medical bills. We ask for your thoughts and prayers,” she added. The Pollets’ GoFundMe page has so far raised more than $42,000 for the family.
