22 Year Old Shirel Hilel Dies of Myocarditis following Vaccine in Israel: Teens Young Adults at Risk


In a new study, released by Pfizer and BioNTech, 80% of children given the Pfizer vaccine experienced side effects. Of the 1097 children in the study 866 experienced side effects half of which were mild 1/2 of which were moderate to severe.


The company released a 37-page “fact sheet” on May 19 outlining the current status of its vaccination studies in the context of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) emergency use authorization (EUA) provisions.

Additionally, Israeli health officials found a probable link between the Pfizer/BioNTech COVID vaccine — and dozens of cases of heart inflammation in young men following the second dose.


A panel of experts was appointed to investigate the issue. The panel included public health experts specializing in epidemiology, members of the National Center for Disease Control and academics from the Tel Aviv University, Technion-Israel Institute of Technology and Haifa University.


Myocarditis is inflammation of the heart muscle that can lead to cardiac arrhythmia and death. "Myocarditis is a result of the body’s immune reaction to the initial heart damage.”


In Israel, hundreds of cases were reported in the past few months. Although I believe the numbers are much higher, as many doctors refuse to report cases brought before them. The majority of the cases were among men 16 to 30, and most often in 16- to 19-year-olds.


“There is a likelihood of a connection between receiving a second dose of vaccine and the onset of myocarditis in young men aged 16-30,” the group of experts concluded.



Shirel Hilel

Shirel Hilel, 22, received her second vaccine dose two weeks ago. She later reported feeling unwell and said she was experiencing muscle pain. Hilel’s condition worsened and she began to have difficulty breathing and pains in her chest and was taken to Safed’s Ziv Medical Center. At the hospital, Hilel was diagnosed with myocarditis, inflammation of the heart muscle, which boyfriend Eyal said the doctor compared to a swollen shoulder.


After 2 days Hilel Condition worsened and she passed away 2 days later of heart failure. Her family is planning on suing the hospital for negligence who failed to pay attention to worsening of her symptoms.


Simone Scott

19-Year-Old College Freshman Dies From Heart Problem One Month After Second Dose of Moderna Vaccine

Simone Scott underwent a heart transplant one month after developing what her doctors believe was myocarditis following her second dose of Moderna. She received the second vaccine May 1 and died June 11.

Simone Scott, a 19-year-old freshman at Northwestern University in Evanston, Ill., died June 11 of complications from a heart transplant.

Simone Scott, a 19-year-old freshman at Northwestern University in Evanston, Ill., died June 11 of complications from a heart transplant she underwent after developing what her doctors believe was myocarditis following her second dose of the Moderna COVID vaccine.

Scott received her second dose of Moderna on May 1, WLWT 5 reported. When the 2020 Mason High School graduate and senior class vice president paid a surprise visit to her parents for Mother’s Day, May 9, her mother said she noticed Scott wasn’t feeling well.


“I did notice she was kind of stuffy so her voice wasn’t exactly the same,” Valerie Kraimer said.


Scott returned to campus on May 11, where even after a visit to the doctor, her condition worsened. Kraimer said multiple tests came back negative including a COVID-19 test.


“On Sunday morning [May 16], she texted her father and said, ‘Dad, I feel so dizzy. I cannot get out of bed’ and that’s when everything really started from there,” Kraimer said.


Scott’s parents were hundreds of miles away so her father called campus police to have someone check in on her.


“We learned that a doctor had to jump on her chest and give her CPR because she was that bad, and then the whole cascade of events happened, Kraimer said. “They had to intubate her and realized she was in heart failure.”


After multiple interventions, including hooking Scott to an ECMO machine that mirrors the function of the heart so her own heart could rest, doctors determined she needed a heart replacement. Her doctors have not fully confirmed the cause of her death, but they said it appears Scott suffered from myocarditis.


Myocarditis is inflammation of the heart muscle that can lead to cardiac arrhythmia and death. According to researchers at the National Organization for Rare Disorders, myocarditis can result from infections, but “more commonly the myocarditis is a result of the body’s immune reaction to the initial heart damage.”


Jacob Clynick

following his vaccination, Jacob Clynick’s heart became enlarged and was surrounded by fluid — symptoms similar to those documented in other teen boys who experienced myocarditis following COVID vaccination.


On June 20, Clynick’s aunt, Tami Burages, posted a tweet with a photo of her nephew’s vaccination card and this statement, though she has since removed this tweet:


“A week ago today my brother’s 13-year-old son had his 2nd covid shot. Less than 3 days later he died. The initial autopsy results (done Friday) were that his heart was enlarged and there was some fluid surrounding it. He had no known health problems. Was on no medications.”


Greyson Follmer Complications from Myocarditis

Greyson Follmer, an Ohio State University (OSU) student, was an elite athlete and member of the university’s chapter of the Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (ROTC).


But, according to his mother, the 19-year-old from Ohio is looking at a very different future now, after he developed severe heart complications following his second dose of Pfizer’s COVID vaccine.


In an exclusive interview with The Defender, Marie Follmer said nobody warned her about the potential for increased risks of COVID vaccine-related adverse events for people like her son, who already had COVID and had acquired natural immunity.


Everest Romney: Blood Clots in Brain Following Vaccination

Everest Romney became sick. Five days after being vaccinated, the 17-year-old was hospitalized when doctors discovered two blood clots in his brain.


Everest’s mother, Cherie Romney, told Children’s Health Defense Chairman Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. on the “RFK Jr. The Defender Podcast” her son, a varsity basketball player at Corner Canyon High School in Draper, Utah, was a very healthy athletic child who was in the middle of recruiting season for his school basketball team.


Now, the teen can barely walk.


Within 24 hours of getting the vaccine, Everest began experiencing an “exorbitant amount” of pain and swelling in his neck that originated on the same side he received the vaccine. Cherie took her son to the pediatrician, who diagnosed the teen with a pulled muscle and placed him in a neck brace.


The doctor was “pretty dismissive,” said Cherie. “We were sent home.”


But within 24 hours of the doctor’s visit, Everest got “one of the worst migraines he’s ever had.” It lasted nonstop for several days before Cherie took her son to the emergency room.


Everest, who has since been released and is in stable condition, was diagnosed with having two cases of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis, a rare type of blood clot that prevents blood from draining out of the brain.


Cherie’s husband, who received the Moderna vaccine, had a similar severe adverse reaction. He was hospitalized with a pulmonary infarction and lost about a fourth of his lung, permanently, said Cherie. An x-ray revealed he had over 100 blood clots in his lungs, she said. He has also since been released and is in stable condition.


Cherie told Kennedy she is not anti-vaccine, However, she encourages others to weigh the rewards against the potential risks when deciding whether or not to get the COVID vaccine.


Cherie said:


“I think there are some people who would be tempted to think I’m a massive anti-vaxxer or to dismiss my message. It really is just that we have to gather all the information. You may not know enough right now. We may not be distributing it safely right now, especially if they’re distributing it to children.”
