Former President Donald Trump has seized the opportunity of the death of NFL star Jessie Lemonier and has used it to push his agenda on the COVID-19 vaccine.
Trump and his supporters have been vocal proponents of the so-called ‘anti-vaxx’ movement, and the former president has now gone one step further by claiming Lemonier’s death was linked to the vaccine.
In a statement issued to the press, Trump said: “It is a tragedy that a young man of such promise should die so suddenly and so young, and I believe it is our duty to investigate the cause of his death.
“I believe it is highly likely that his death was caused by the vaccine, and I urge all Americans to think twice before taking the jab.”
Trump’s comments have been met with derision from medical experts and scientists, who have described his claims as “bizarre” and “ridiculous”.
The Lemonier family have also spoken out against Trump’s comments, stating that they “are deeply hurt by the suggestion that their son’s death was caused by the vaccine”.
It remains to be seen whether Trump’s attempt to further his ‘anti-vaxx’ agenda will be successful, but it is clear that the former president is determined to push his message.
