Claim : Matthew Rodrigopulle Died From Vaccine / Car Accident!
Right after news broke that 24 year-old Global News reporter Matthew Rodrigopulle died suddenly, people started claiming he died from the COVID-19 vaccine.

Truth : Matthew Rodrigopulle Did NOT Die From Vaccine / Accident!
It’s becoming a tradition for anti-vaccination activists to immediately blame all celebrity deaths or illnesses on the COVID-19 vaccine, while ghoul news websites try to peddle other causes.
This is yet another example of FAKE NEWS created and propagated by anti-vaccination activists and ghoul news websites, and here are the reasons why… and the current facts that we know so far.
Fact #1 : Matthew Rodrigopulle Died Of Natural Causes
24 year-old Matthew Rodrigopulle died suddenly of natural causes at his home in Regina on Sunday, September 4, 2022.
So he did not die from the COVID-19 vaccine, or a car accident.
This was confirmed in an article by the School of Journalism at his alma mater – the Toronto Metropolitan University, formerly Ryerson University.
Fact #2 : His Family Never Blamed Vaccine For His Death
Matthew Rodrigopulle’s funeral was held in Ajax, Ontario, on September 12, 2022; and his family asked that donations be made in his memory to the charity of your choice.
In that memorial page, Matthew’s family wrote about the impact he had on everyone’s lives, and celebrated his achievements and abilities.
But not once did they blame the COVID-19 vaccine for his death. If his death was caused by COVID-19 vaccination, you can be sure that his family would have said something to that effect, but they notably did not do that.
So anyone who claims that Matthew Rodrigopulle died from the COVID-19 vaccine is simply… LYING to you.

Fact #3 : Matthew Rodrigopulle Was Fully Vaccinated
When news broke that Matthew Rodrigopulle died suddenly, anti-vaccination activists gleefully posted evidence of his COVID-19 vaccination on his last Twitter post.
So yes, Matthew Rodrigopulle was fully vaccinated and boosted against COVID-19, and he strongly encouraged people to wear a face mask and get vaccinated.
Fact #4 : Vaccine Side Effects Appear Within Hours / Days
Matthew Rodrigopulle was fully-vaccinated against COVID-19 a long time ago – on June 4, 2021, He also received his booster dose on December 23, 2021.
In other words, he received all of his doses more than 9 months ago.
He cannot possibly have died from a vaccine side effect, because they appear within hours or days, not months later.
Mild side effects like injection site pain, fever, muscle ache, headache, lethargy develop within minutes to hours of the vaccination.
Anaphylaxis develops within minutes, while other severe adverse reactions like myocarditis and VITT develop within days.
The spike proteins produced by the COVID-19 vaccines also do not stick around for months. If these spike proteins are permanent (as antivaxxers claim), we would have lifelong immunity.
Your own immune system will identify the spike proteins as foreign, and destroy them within a matter of days, although some may last for up to a few weeks. This is part of how vaccines teach your immune system to identify the enemy and destroy it.

Fact #5 : COVID-19 Vaccines Do Not Cause SADS
It is possible that Matthew Rodrigopulle may have died from Sudden Arrhythmic Death Syndrome (SADS), also known as Sudden Adult Death Syndrome.
But that does not mean SADS is caused by COVID-19 vaccines. That would be rather ludicrous as SADS was first documented in 1977 – long before COVID-19 vaccines were invented!
SADS also occurs at a rate of 0.12 to 0.21 per 100,000 people every single year. In other words, approximately 9,000 to 16,000 people die from SADS every single year, before the COVID-19 vaccines were invented.
Despite what anti-vaccination activists may tell you – SADS is not a new vaccine-related syndrome.
SADS is usually caused by an abnormal heart rhythm that leads to a cardiac arrest. That’s why it can be prevented by implanting a cardioverter-defribillator.
The UK Office for National Statistics data on Sudden Adult Deaths from 2016 to 2020 also showed NO INCREASE in SADS cases, demonstrating that COVID-19 vaccines did not increase the prevalence of SADS.
Years | Sudden Adult Death Syndrome Cases |
2016 | 116 |
2017 | 63 |
2018 | 53 |
2019 | 87 |
2020 | 115 |
Fact #6 : Deaths / Injuries From COVID-19 Vaccines Can Be Proven
Despite anti-vaccination activists chalking up celebrity deaths to the vaccine; death or injury from rare vaccine adverse effects like anaphylaxis, myocarditis and VITT can be proven.
Anaphylaxis (severe allergic reaction) from Pfizer or Moderna mRNA vaccines happens within minutes. That’s why people are asked to wait for 15-30 minutes after getting the vaccine. People who get an anaphylactic shock will require an epinephrine shot to quickly relieve it.
Vaccine-induced myocarditis has distinct histopathology findings that are different from typical myocarditis, so a pathologist will be able to determine if the myocarditis was caused by the vaccines or otherwise.
Vaccine-induced Thrombotic Thrombocytopenia (VITT) is very specific to the AstraZeneca and Johnson & Johnson vaccines. It is also easily differentiated by its unique combination of blood clots in large veins of the brains, abdomen and lungs, together with low platelet counts leading to bleeding tendencies.
Fact #7 : COVID-19 Vaccines Proven Safe + Effective
COVID-19 vaccines underwent massive clinical trials, and were only approved after they were proven to be safe and effective.
In addition, they were constantly monitored after they received their approvals, which picked up rare side effects after they were administered to billions of people.
Anti-vaccination activists have often claimed that those who received the vaccine would die. Yet, the opposite was true – the vaccines are not only safe, they are effective in protecting people from getting hospitalised or dying from COVID-19.
Even prominent antivaxxer Steve Kirsch is healthy and well, despite being fully-vaccinated against COVID-19!

Fact #8 : Claims Of Celebrities Injured By COVID-19 Vaccine Proven False
This is yet another example of anti-vaccination activists abusing celebrity deaths / injuries to create and propagate FAKE NEWS about the safety and efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines.
So far, claims of celebrity deaths / injuries due to the COVID-19 vaccine have been proven false at every instance.
