What even is the argument here? That someone who originally got the vaccine almost two years ago and just recently died must have died because of the vaccine? This seems like a massive stretch.
Why do you assume he took the jab two years ago and didn't get a booster like Pfizer advised us? Per the story below, apparently, his vaccination status is private. Sad.
In other Israel news, 7-Israel ran a story last week horrifyingly headlined, "Child dies after nearly drowning on Yom Kippur Eve." The sub-headline explained: "8-year-old boy passes away days after suffering cardiac arrest and nearly drowning in a bathtub." A very particular boy: he's a covid celebrity.
Eight-year-old Yonatan (Jonathan) Erlichman had a fatal heart attack while he was taking a bath. He might have drowned if his cardiac arrest hadn't killed him. That's where we are now, eight year olds having heart attacks while taking a bath. Yonatan got immediate help, crisis care arrived within minutes, and Yonatan then spent three difficult days clinging to life in the hospital but they still couldn't save him.
Not only that. Yonatan was surrounded by doctors. Kid doctors. His father is a pediatrician and a hospital doctor. His grandfather is a former director of pediatrics. One assumes Yonatan got the best medical care any child could get. But wait, there's more.
When he was five, Yonatan was a child actor who starred in early covid propaganda videos along with an overall-wearing puppet. The puppet said he was scared about covid. So Yonatan told the puppet to talk to his dad, a doctor.
In a subsequent piece, Yonatan's father explained covid protocols to the socially-distanced puppet in kid-friendly terms. He told the puppet how important 14-day quarantines are, the "necessity" of quarantining people who contacted an infected person even if they won't lock themselves down and that the puppet must not use the bathroom for several hours after mama goes.
guilt manipulation to the poor puppet, explaining that "everything we're doing is for" grandma and grandpa, and "this creates a good feeling in the heart, that you're able to help, right?"
That's some pretty tragic irony right there.
After the jabs rolled out, Yonatan's pediatrician grandfather encouraged viewers to get jabbed in a news interview, insisting he was sure the shots were totally safe and effective: "I'm sure it's not dangerous, according to all the research that was done, all the approvals it received … there were no side effects other than a drop of local pain in the injection site."
In other words, the older Dr. Erlichman believed the public health experts.
Yonatan's medical family described how the boy died, but has not said whether or not they gave him the jabs. But there was no choice, and Yonatan was doing everything he could for grandma and his pro-jab grandpa, and it made a good feeling in his heart. Well. You know what I mean.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the grieving family at this unimaginably difficult time. Hopefully they'll figure out what caused Yonatan's death so they can have closure and help prevent this from happening to other young children.
