DescriptionAfter vaccine hesitancy became noticeable, corporate media were flooded with tales of anti-vaxxers who now regretted their choice. "I wish I'd gotten the vaccine" are their last words, wheezed out almost inaudibly from the death bed.
Even crisis actors get sick. On July 7th, 2021, a man called Matthew Roche appeared on ITV’s Good Morning Britain live from his hospital bed. I was like ‘I am going to get the vaccine but I would like to see what happens in regards to side effects […] No one takes it as seriously until they have had it." Interestingly, Roche is fully qualified in “Casualty Simulation training” and has appeared in multiple training exercises for mass casualty events.

After vaccine hesitancy became noticeable, corporate media were flooded with tales of anti-vaxxers who now regretted their choice. "I wish I'd gotten the vaccine" are their last words, wheezed out almost inaudibly from the death bed.

Examples

"Shelly Wachter was wary of getting vaccinated against the coronavirus because of what she described as the “white noise” surrounding its safety. After she had knee replacement surgery in Omaha a few weeks ago, though, she contracted covid-19, the disease caused by the virus. She was hospitalized and treated with supplemental oxygen, an ordeal she described as “pretty terrifying” to the Lincoln Journal Star. “Now, knowing what I do, I would get the shot,” Wachter said. Doing so, she said, “could have saved myself and my family so much by having gotten the vaccination.”[1]

In July 2021, Glenn Barratt, a British father-of-one who caught Covid-19 while watching England play in the Euros told nurses 'I wish I had got vaccinated’ before he died. Barratt had spent his last three weeks on a ventilator. Speaking after Glenn’s death, his cousin, Ken Meech, said he believes if Glenn had got his two Covid jabs he would still be here today.[2]

August 2021, the brother of US conservative radio host Phil Valentine said his Covid experience has led Valentine to reconsider his stance on the vaccine. “If he had to do it over again, he would be more adamantly pro-vaccination, and that is what he will bring in his message when he gets back to that microphone which we hope is sooner rather than later.” Valentine later died in hospital.

In October 2021, an unvaccinated Virginia couple in their 40s died of COVID-19, leaving behind four children — and the dad with one tragic regret before he succumbed. “He called me up and said, ‘Mom, I love you, and I wish that I’d got the shot,’”.[3]

In November 2021, British Gemma Roberts, a former anti-vaxxer who reportedly died 'eight times' in hospital after contracting Covid-19 and sepsis is urging others to get jabbed. "I wish I'd had the vaccine before, I think everyone should have it now. I was one of those people scared of having the jab. I heard it killed people. "I took a chance and almost didn't pull through. Medical professionals saved my life, that's who I will listen to now."[4]

In November 2021, Glynn Steel, an animal lover who refused to get the COVID vaccine because it wasn’t vegan died from the virus. But before he died on November 16, he said to his wife Emma, “I have never felt so ill, I wish I’d had the vaccine.”[5]

In December 2021, Australian doctors and nurses had to dig deep to find compassion for patients who chose not to have a Covid vaccine, too late realising the severity of their error. An unvaccinated patient lies on a hospital bed. Sick, dying of Covid, realising too late they should have got the jab. Another, ill and panicking, asks if they can get the vaccination now. It’s too late, the doctor has to tell them. Yet another, gasping for air, can’t even find the breath to ask.[6]
