After months of anticipation, different countries started rolling out COVID 19 vaccines. The formulation of more than 95% effective vaccines by different countries gave people hope that the deadly virus would soon meet its end, at least until the anti-vaxxer’s propaganda surfaced.

For the past few weeks, anti-vaxxer’s propaganda has been at its peak, promoting uncertainty among the masses regarding the vaccine. Unfortunately, 30 years Texas-based woman Patricia Chandler, fell prey to this scheme.

Recently Patricia shared pictures of her feet, covered with purple and red sores. Patricia is suffering from an unknown skin condition, but anti-vaccine activists are exploiting her images to fuel their campaign. Consequently, these controversial pictures of hers are provoking doubts among the masses regarding the safety and efficacy of the vaccine.

According to Chandler, she participated in Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine trials and was given a placebo. Following this trial, she started feeling intense pain in her feet, followed by the eruption of the massive blisters on her heels.

Patricia added that consulted a doctor on her condition. But, the doctor diagnosed it as some mysterious skin disease.
