Investigative reporter Catherine Herridge is back. She’s on her own without any strings attached to biased MSM networks.
Herridge’s first report focuses on the military’s mandatory COVID vaccine, which led to at least one soldier’s heart condition.
Army Specialist Karoline Stancik suffered a heart attack right after she had the Moderna vaccine. She had pacemaker surgery earlier this month.
Stancik has had to take 27 medications a day since the first heart attack.
“I was left behind and trampled,” Stancik told Herridge.
Stancik never had a heart condition before the vaccine, noting that she could run 10 miles at one time and play basketball. Now she has trouble just standing up.
Stancik took the first dose of the Moderna vaccine in March 2021.
The next thing Stancik knew, she had a cough, chest pain, sinus pressure, and headaches.
The second jab happened in April. The reaction intensified.
Stancik explained: “I was experiencing severe neuropathic pain, felt like burning sensations throughout my whole body and I was having chest pains, breathing issues and a really high heart rate and dizziness. It felt like a balloon was blowing up in my chest.”
The military relieved Stancik from active duty in April 2022, leaving her without a salary and medical benefits.
The lack of money left Stancik homeless for three weeks, driving up and down the coast, living out of her car.
Stancik made her way to Florida. One day, she had a bad flare-up and blacked out.
Stancik found herself at the bottom of the stairs outside her apartment door.
A text message she sent to Sorenson said if she alone, she’d consider suicide.
“I talked about it with my cardiologist and I told her that I am just ready for this to be done, like I don’t know how much more I can take this,” Stancik explained.
Stancik continued: “I’ve been through multiple therapists. I was denied mental health care because they said until the stuff with the military gets resolved, like, we can’t help you.
Sorenson told Herridge the Defense Department “discarded [Stancik] as trash.”
The army admitted the link between Stancik’s heart problems and the COVID vaccine.
“Research has confirmed a link between a COVID-19 infection and a debilitating heart condition called POTS, or postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, that has been diagnosed in some patients,” according to an army memo.
“POTS was also linked, to a lesser degree, to COVID-19 vaccination with an mRNA vaccine, according to a new study,” it also stated.
POTS is when “your heart and your blood pressure don’t work in accordance with each other.”
It took Stancik over 19 months to receive a response from the Defense Department.
“They’re fully responsible,” Stancik insisted. “I was neglected and the medical care that I needed to get was not happening and so the damage was more by delaying the response.”
US JAG defends the rights of injured service members.
“Her case is representative of hundreds, possibly thousands of other vaccine injury cases, but moreover, it’s very indicative of the systemic problem of the Department of Defense abandoning injured service members. Vaccine injuries are also very political and the leadership in the Defense Department did not want to address that and still does not want to address that maybe we hurt our own people,” said US JAG veteran advocate Jeremy Sorenson.
The army memo also said that Stancik’s heart problems occurred in the line of duty.
“Service connection gets you benefits when you get out of the military and so without that I would not get any benefits for these conditions,” said Stancik.
Stancik hopes the army memo opens the doors for other soldiers who believe the vaccine injured them.
The interview with Stancik took place days before surgery for a pacemaker.
Herridge asked Sorenson what it costs for vaccine-injured services to come forward.
“The cost of coming forward for those who have been vaccine injured is probably greater than other injuries because of the political environment and the stigma around of not following the order to get a vaccine or for speaking up against the vaccine itself after getting it,” said Sorenson.
An Army spokesman told Herridge, “‘Covid vaccine injured’ is a non-specific term…and cannot be medically diagnosed.”
Our Leslie has covered the military vaccine mandate extensively for years.
The army began discharging soldiers who did not get the vaccine in 2022. At that time, 3,300 soldiers refused to get the jab.
The Marines, Air Force, and Navy had already begun discharging “active-duty troops or entry-level personnel”
From February 2022:
Last week, the Navy announced it had fired 45 sailors for refusing the vaccine. The Marine Corps has discharged 334, the US Naval Institute reported last month.The Air Force said last month that it had fired 27 service members.
By October 2023, the military let go of 8,000 soldiers.
