But our Australians especially NSW, Victoria do not care about COVID they are not using the mask on, travelling from very dangerous states like NSW and VIctoria- they infect other Australian Shame on people from NSW and Victoria.

Oh nooooo.... :/

Stroke is a side effect of the shot.

Is this simply US FAKE journalism or a product of poor skoolin? He never got covit in the US.

READ THE ARTICLE PEOPLE. FALSE TITLE

Sad

This article should probably be rewritten - a lot of gaps and misleading statements.

Wishing you a speedy recovery Eammon

More misleading journalism

😢

How heartbreaking. Sending good thoughts for a full recovery and access home.

Good to see you are still focused on the 1% of people that get really sick, why don’t you interview the millions that have had little to mild symptoms? Or does that not fit your agenda?

Well, according to COVIDIOTS it’s only a cold.

❤️

Get well soon pal. Take care. 🌷Thomas.

Just to clarify, the first stroke was caused by a chiropractic adjustment after I had neck pain from covid. I got the J&J vaccine in March and there's no suggestion that the vaccine is linked to the stroke. It's the artery dissection - v important

He looks young too ☹️

Fix the headline. He is recovering in the US but got it in Nigeria. Poor man.

Wait he got the stroke from the vaccine

You know COVID-19 is not the only cause for any illness now. Stroke, COVID-19. Dead, COVID-19, cough, COVID-19, sneeze COVID-19, wake up Journos...your actions are causing gear and follow-on actions. It will come back back you one day. Karma exists

We don’t believe you ABC

The reporter seems to be sure the strokes were caused by COVID, but he was fully vaxxed? Well...

Stay safe everyone Wear a mask in high risk environments even if you're vaccinated Wash your damn hands The delta variant is no joke

I hope your health is improving, Eammon. I was wondering where you were as I enjoy your reporting. Take care❤❤

He was at a chiropractor and had a posterior circulation stroke whilst receiving treatment. This is also relevant.

All the best EammonAtkinson 🇦🇺

“The journalist was vaccinated for COVID-19 but said he discovered he had contracted the virus after he returned from working in Nigeria.” Please clarify this, as it’s really confusing: was he fully vaccinated already prior to travelling to Nigeria? Thanks

Why didn't the magic vaccine save him? Isn't it meant to prevent people from severe symptoms?

A journalist AND a qualified doctor. Impressive.

The story and the headlines don’t match. The story says he contracted it in Nigeria.

Chicken and egg scenario. It is important that we are informed about what happened first here. This is all a giant experiment we are participating in and hopefully we’ll be respected enough to be provided all the info.

Doco about a gay rugby club?!! Is that journalism now ..

Wishing Eammon a quick recovery.

Sending thoughts and hoping for a full recovery. Blessed Be

Wow...that's full on. Poor guy ☹

That’s tough going. Wishing him a speedy recovery ❤️‍🩹

Covid vax stroke. It’s common with these vaccines

See the ABC revelling in it, profiting from it. Relentlessly driving the fear and hysteria.

Stay tuned for asx analysis 😁🚀

Just awful 😢 wishing Eamon a speedy recovery ❤️‍🩹
