The US military has admitted that an American soldier suffered heart failure as a direct result of receiving a mandatory Covid mRNA injection.
24-year-old Army National Guard Specialist Karoline Stancik is lucky to be alive after suffering a Covid-induced heart attack.
After receiving his second dose of Moderna's mRNA injection, Stancik suffered three heart attacks and a stroke.
The young woman has now been forced to wear a pacemaker.
Stancik developed a headache, sinus problems, cough and chest pain after his first dose.
After her second dose a month later, she developed severe adverse reactions.
Stancik suffered from an elevated heart rate, dizziness, neuropathic pain and difficulty breathing.
It was shortly after the second injection that he suffered his first heart attack.
Stancik told his story during an interview with the American journalist and former CBS News investigative correspondent Catherine Herridge.
Herridge also sat down with veteran defenseman Jeremy Sorenson US MEan organization that advocates for the rights of injured service members.
Stancik told Herridge and NewsNation's Chris Cuomo that he had no heart disease before receiving the Covid mRNA vaccine under the Department of Defense's 2021 Covid vaccine mandate.
He has since been diagnosed with Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome, according to a US military memo.
The official note links the vaccine to the syndrome.

About 17,000 troops refused the shots, ignoring the mandate of Democratic President Joe Biden.
The backlash against the Biden administration's mandate came with the support of many conservatives who agreed with their concerns about the pace at which it occurred.
The military eventually reversed the rule in January 2023.
In Stancik's papers, military officials point to a link between the injection of Covid mRNA and the “debilitating heart condition.”
Doctors have fought this narrative, insisting that the condition it only got worse with the vaccine among individuals who already had pre-existing conditions.
“The only thing that would have changed was the Covid vaccine, and that's when everything turned around for me,” Stancik told Herridge in a sit-down interview. published in X.
“It seemed to me [a] burning sensation all over my body,” she shared, noting that she also felt extreme chest pain.
“I felt like a balloon was rising in my chest.”
When she suffered those symptoms, Stancik said she was released from active duty in 2022, costing her medical benefits and pay.
“I was sidelined and the medical care I needed to get wasn't happening,” she said.
Stancik claims he then spent three weeks driving across the country trying to get medical attention as he continued to suffer.
Sometimes, he said, the effects were so debilitating that he even considered suicide.
“She was dismissed as trash,” USJAG veterans' attorney Jeremy Sorenson told Herridge.
She didn't get her medical benefits back until October 2023, when the U.S. military decided she was injured in the line of duty, Herridge reports.
In the meantime, he said, he racked up more than $70,000 in medical debt.
“I've had three heart attacks, a mini-stroke and now I have a pacemaker,” Stancik said.
However, Sorenson said Stancik's case is not unique.
Sorenson notes that his case represents a larger trend by the Department of Defense to eliminate benefits for wounded soldiers as a cost-saving measure.
“They have the money,” Sorenson said.
“They decide to spend the money there other things.
“The Department of Defense chooses to spend its money not on its people, not on wounded servicemen, han other priorities.”
He also suggested that other service members may have suffered adverse reactions to the Covid shots.
“The leadership of the Department of Defense didn't want to address that — and still doesn't want to address that — that we might be harming our own people with the vaccine mandate,” he said.
Now, Stancik and Sorenson say they hope their case will help other service members who suffered side effects from the Covid injection get the benefits they need.
At the same time, Stancik denies that he is spreading anti-vaccine propaganda, noting, “My story, my health, it's mine.”

In a statement to Herridge, a U.S. military spokesman said Stancik could have remained on active duty while receiving treatment.
However, Stancik denied having been advised about this option.
