Inquest: ‘Fit and healthy’ doctor died from ‘unintended consequences’ of Covid jab
April 19, 2023
A fit and healthy father of two died as a result of a rare reaction to the AstraZeneca Covid vaccination, an inquest has concluded. Dr Stephen Wright, 32, suffered from a combination of a severe brain stem infarction or obstruction, along with a huge bleed on the brain and a “vaccine-induced thrombosis” or blood clot, 10 days after receiving the vaccination in January 2021. As a doctor and NHS worker, Dr Wright was among the first to be given the AstraZeneca vaccine when it was rolled out as a result of the Covid pandemic. Andrew Harris, senior coroner, told Southwark Coroner’s Court: “Dr Wright was a fit and healthy man who had the AstraZeneca Covid vaccination on January 16, 2021, awoke with a headache on the 25th, and later developed left arm numbness. “He attended an A&E department just after midnight, where he was found to have high blood pressure and a sagittal sinus venous thrombosis. He was transferred to King’s College Hospital at 6.39 am, but, due to the extent of the bleed and very low platelets, was unfit for surgery, dying at 6.33 pm.”

Cancer claims bride's life just five days after wedding: Wife looked 'absolutely gorgeous,' says widower
April 17, 2023
A bride and groom were married in a chapel ceremony just five days before the bride died of breast cancer. Dave McLoughlin and his fiancé, Michelle Crowe, are from Tipperary, Ireland, and were engaged for seven years — having gone through tough times during their relationship, but always remaining united. Crowe, just 33 years old, was diagnosed with breast cancer in September 2022. Crowe underwent chemotherapy and a mastectomy in February 2023. Weeks later, Crowe complained about a pain in her stomach. It turned out that cancer had spread to her liver, McLoughlin said. Yet the cancer returned "with a vengeance" last month. "She made it her mission to walk down the aisle … [She] looked absolutely gorgeous," he said of his bride.
