Question

'Friends' star Matthew Perry died because of the COVID-19 vaccine.

Comments

The comments on this claim correctly disprove the idea that the Covid-19 vaccine caused the death of Mattew Perry, however, most do not go into deepth explaining the true cause of his death and incorrectly cite excessive ketamine use rather than the effects of ketamine. Reputable news outlets like People, healthline, and have reported on the true cause of Perry's death. Mattew Perry's autopsy report concluded that the actor died due to "acute effects of ketamine." Other factors including drowning, coronary artery disease, and the effects of buprenorphine contributed to Perry's death. While recreational ketamine use did contribute to the actor's death, ketamine infusion therapy under medical supervision can be beneficial for treatment-resistant depression, PTSD, and other mental health conditions.

I really like this comment. You were clear and concise and factual. I like that you put in the fact of how much ketamine was found in his blood which would lead to death. The source you used also seems reliable.

After more research I have concluded that actor Matthew Perry died partly due to the "acute effects of ketamine" and he drowned in his pool at his home shortly after. No where does it say that Perry died due to the COVID vaccine.

I come to the same conclusion of this report being false by using a different source. My source also included that Perry's death had to do with the effects of ketamine. It is cool to see that you added facts about the amount of ketamine he had because that is important to know in this situation.

I agree that since this video was made on tik tok randomly, it has little credibility and shouldn’t be believed automatically with no evidence given at all. The causes of his death can be proven with real research and if you look at credible sources you can see that the covid vaccine was not one of them.

Answer 1

After reading many articles about Matthew Perry's death, I was quick to discover that his death had nothing to do with the vaccine. It was noted that there were quick rumors made by anti-vaxers.  Matthew Perry was known to have long term issues with drugs. "Perry had 15 stints in rehab, 14 surgeries, was in a coma for two weeks, and, at one point, was on life support." Through many different articles it is proven that there is no evidence behind the covid-19 vaccine being the reason for Matthew Perrys death, therefore making this article false.

Answer 2

After a quick google search, this fact proves to be false; Matthew Perry did not die from the effects of the Covid-19 vaccine. PBS, among almost all other major news companies, published articles explaining that the "autopsy report shows actor Matthew Perry died from effects of ketamine."

Answer 3

The autopsy of Matthew Perry says that he died from drowning in his pool while under the "acute effects of the anesthetic ketamine". There is no publicly available information from my research about the actor's vaccination status, but it's simply impossible that a vaccine injected in the arm will cause drowning as drowning is caused by the lungs filling with liquid. This claims is false and inflammatory. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/arts/autopsy-report-shows-actor-matthew-perry-died-from-effects-of-ketamine
