Description
Good news for those who develop vaccine-induced prothrombotic immune thrombocytopenia after getting the COVID-19 vaccine! You might survive if you get treated soon after symptoms appear.
If you’ve never heard of VIPIT, you’re not alone. It’s a brand new health condition caused by the new vaccines.
VIPIT is one of many different adverse events reported so far. The May 7, 2021 VAERS report contained 192,954 total adverse events, including:
4057 deaths
17,190 serious injuries
297 miscarriages or premature births
1950 cases of Bell's Palsy
181 cases of Guillain-Barré Syndrome
55,220 cases of anaphylaxis
What is Vaccine-Induced Prothrombotic Immune Thrombocytopenia (VIPIT)?
Vaccine-Induced Prothrombotic Immune Thrombocytopenia seems to be uniquely connected to the Johnson & Johnson and AstraZeneca vaccines.
(VIPIT) is characterized by the presence of two conditions concurrently: thrombosis (often in unusual sites like the cerebral sinus veins or splanchnic veins) AND thrombocytopenia.
American College of Cardiology
To make things a little more confusing, VIPIT is also called Vaccine-Induced Immune Thrombotic Thrombocytopenia (VITT) and “thrombotic thrombocytopenic syndrome” (TTS).
(In those who develop VIPIT, the vaccine) seems to induce the production of antibodies causing massive activation of platelets via the Fc receptor, resembling heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT), but without previous contact with heparin (HIT mimicry).”
Thaler, J, et al.
In the case of VIPIT, some of the following symptoms appear four to 28 days after vaccination. This is important because people typically think of adverse events as taking place within 48 hours. That's not the case here.
Symptoms of ThrombosisBack painBlood blistersBlurred visionChest or abdominal painDouble visionFocal neurological symptomsMultiple small bruisesPallor and coldness in a limbPersistent and severe headacheReddish or purplish spotsSeizuresShortness of breathSwelling and redness in a limbUnusual bleeding
Most VIPIT cases have occurred in otherwise healthy people under 50 who did not have pre-existing health conditions. Rates are higher in women than men as well. If not treated quickly, mortality rates are as high as 50%.
Thanks to one patient's medical team, the Journal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis was able to publish a detailed case report of this 62-year-old woman. The complete case report is available here. I've summarized it below.
Published Case Study
She developed flu-like symptoms the day after vaccination, treated herself, and felt better the day after that. She then took a short trip and cross-country skied for several hours in Austria.
On the 5th day, she developed chills, self-medicated, and felt better the next day.
On the 8th day, she bit her lip and developed a large hematoma. The next day, she noticed another hematoma on her ankle and that her gums were bleeding.
After much testing, the doctors diagnosed her VIPIT. Her treatment included:
a fibrinogen concentrate
HIT-compatible anticoagulation with short-acting danaparoid-sodium
immunoglobulins
prednisolone
oral apixaban
That's a lot of medication to offset the effects of a vaccine you could argue she didn't need.

Think for yourself. Don't let a celebrity do it for you.
Based on all of the celebrity endorsements, the pleading and incentivizing by Democrat governors, and the shaming by Mainstream Media of those who choose not to get vaccinated, you might believe the vaccine is safe and well-proven. But, unfortunately, that could not be further from the truth.
While it is true that the vast majority of people who've gotten one of the vaccines are alive and well today, they're not without risk. In addition, there is no long-term safety data to show they'll be fine long-term. Finally, don't forget that none of these vaccines were available a year ago,
