Oh how the minds change when the pressure is on

There's a saying "there are no atheists in foxholes"

Well it seems that the common thread we are seeing amongst the last words of an anti-vaxer when they are dying of Covid is "I wish I had gotten vaccinated" and "make sure my family gets vaccinated."

I don't trust a lot of these stories. My local newspaper publishes them all the time and funnily enough they never tell you if the person had underlying conditions, and it's nearly always a family member saying it (and some get paid for the story). I'm not saying some aren't true, but most are a bit sus. Also not convincing me in the slightest, in fact as I don't think most are real I don't actually even listen to/read them anymore.

Obviously this is just my opinion on the ones I've seen and heard.

@Beautifullyderanged Underlying conditions matter little. It's still a covid death. If not for covid, that person would still be breathing.

If you die from a heart attack but you suffered atherosclerosis for 17 years, you still died of a heart attack.

@Graylight I get where you are coming from but there have been so many people who were asymptomatic and died of their condition, not covid, but have been recorded of dying from it, that it's hard to trust anything anymore when you're government admits to messing with the figures and hasn't even decided to differentiate between dying with or dying from covid.
