How you know they ent drop dead? If they did they would probably not even bother to investigate and pass it off as natural cases. Two just die in TNT and they trying to cover up. Oh btw Does it have to kill you to hurt you? You can have adverse side effects that trigger other events and not talk about it. Imagine the trauma. How many have taken the 2nd dose? The medium to long term effects of this vaccine are not known. Do you know?
No wonder you call yourself Lucifer. Wutless.
