Drue Taylor
Drue Taylor lives with a circulatory disorder (POTS) and fainting spells that disabled her after Moderna doses. A yoga instructor and massage therapist, she is fighting an inadequate compensation (VISP) payout.
Key points
- Drue Taylor is a 36-year-old former power yoga instructor and massage therapist from Alberta who testified virtually because travel could leave her bedbound.
- She says she was pro-vaccine and received her first Moderna dose in April 2021, developing racing heart, dizziness, and sinus tachycardia within hours.
- She testifies she faced pressure from Alberta Health Services and a cardiologist to take a second dose despite her severe symptoms.
- She says her symptoms were amplified after the second dose, causing fainting, vomiting, and being bedbound for over a year.
- She recounts being diagnosed by Dr. Raj with POTS, vasovagal syncope, and suspected mast cell activation syndrome, all attributed to the vaccines.
- She says she now faints one to three times a week, requires heavy medication, compression, and 10,000-14,000 mg of sodium daily.
- She describes a frustrating vaccine injury program experience with a $45,000 payout under appeal, and is launching a compression clothing line.
