A South African trauma surgeon who mocked the unvaccinated died unexpectedly Sunday at the age of 43.
The ultimate cause of death remains unknown for Dr. Vicky Jennings, an internationally recognized surgeon who served as the clinical lead in trauma surgery at Netcare Milpark Hospital in Johannesburg.
Jennings was known for her staunch support of the COVID-19 mRNA vaccines. During the pandemic she repeatedly urged the public to take the injections and dismissed any concerns about the experimental shots as “disinformation.”
In February 2021, Jennings posted a masked photo of herself to Facebook shortly after taking the mRNA vaccine in which she mocked those who refused the shots.
“Waiting to grow my unicorn horn now, and maybe Bill Gates can start tracking my fascinating life,” she wrote.
On Sunday the mother of two reportedly died from a sudden heart attack.
According to Netcare Milpark Hospital Academic Trauma Centre Trauma Director Prof. Ken Boffard, Dr. Jennings was “the epitome of what a surgeon should be: caring, passionate and skilled, she always gave of her best, and was highly regarded by all who were treated by her, worked with her, and had the privilege of knowing her.”
“Always enthusiastic, always caring, and special to all with whom she came into contact, Dr Jennings was an outstanding teacher locally and internationally, a sought-after mentor and role model for the next generation of trauma surgeons. She will be sadly missed,” Dr. Boffard added.
South Africa was one of 17 countries included in a September study which found a direct correlation between excess deaths and COVID-19 vaccine rollouts.
Experts have been sounding the alarm about what they say are severe safety issues with the COVID-19 injections. In April last year, the Freedom Alliance of South Africa (FASA) — a human rights group consisting of attorneys, physicians, and other medical experts — demanded the government rescind its “irrational and unlawful” authorization for the Pfizer vaccine.
“Global data is showing alarming signals and correlations between the administration of Pfizer’s COVID-19 mRNA vaccine products and an unprecedented rise in serious adverse reactions in patients, including disability, foetal abnormalities, aggressive cancers and death,” FASA said in a statement.
The group’s legal representatives argued that the South African Health Products Regulatory Authority’s (SAHPRA) authorization of the injections was based on “flawed and inaccurate trial data presented by a heavily conflicted Pfizer.”SAPHRA did not submit the vaccine to any independent reviews or trials; instead, it only relied on Pfizer’s own data.
According to neurosurgeon and FASA member Dr. Herman Edeling, Pfizer deliberately misled regulators.
“The applicants sent out clear evidence showing that Pfizer’s vaccine trial for Comirnaty appears to have been a whitewash, mired by what appears to be substantial data manipulation, data inaccuracies, and inaccurate statements of outcomes,” said Dr. Edeling.
Cardiologist and FASA member Dr. Aseem Malhotra, who originally supported the COVID-19 vaccines, backed FASA’s request for judicial review of SAPHRA’s authorization.
“For the overwhelming majority of people, the Pfizer COVID mRNA vaccine is significantly more harmful than beneficial and likely should never have been approved to be administered to a single human being,” declared Malhotra.
“It is alarming to me that the local regulators are encouraging the vaccination of young children in the circumstances. The rollout of the Pfizer vaccine products should, in my opinion, be halted pending a full investigation into how we got this so very wrong. That is, without question, the responsible and ethical move,” he added.
