Australian cricket legend’s son says forced COVID shots led to dad’s sudden death at 52

(LifeSiteNews) — The son of a popular Australian cricket player has expressed certainty that his dad’s sudden and untimely death in 2022 occurred because of the COVID-19 shots he was forced to take. 

Jackson Warne, son of famed athlete Shane Warne, who died at age 52, said that when he got the call about his father’s death due to a heart attack, “My first impression, as soon as I hung up the phone, I instantly blamed the government. I instantly blamed COVID and the vaccine.”

His father, who had a reputation for partying, died while on vacation on the island of Koh Samui, Thailand. An autopsy determined that the elder Warne died of “natural causes.”  

His son, however, doesn’t think that’s the full story. 

“I definitely think (the COVID-19 shot) was involved and I don’t even think saying that is controversial anymore, like with the amount of data that’s come out, like even if dad had underlying health issues, I think this brought it straight to the surface,” said Warne in a 2 Worlds Collide interview.  

“The last three or four years, when it’s come up in conversations, like, I have not changed my tune,” said Warne. 

“Dad, at the time, he was healthy, he was happy. He actually looked the best he had in a while,” he noted. “Yes, he smoked and he drank. But how many more people in their 80s and 90s still smoke and drink a lot more than dad?”

“I know dad was okay, and I think he might have got 3 or 4 (COVID-19 jabs) and he was forced to get them like everybody else,” he said. 

Jackson said that perhaps his father was going to have a heart attack at age 65 or 70, but that the COVID-19 shots likely caused his unexpected death at a much earlier age. 

“I think all this just brought it to the surface, but I don’t even think that’s controversial to say. And it’s been over four years now,” he explained.  

“If I came out and said this at the state memorial or a month after or a year after, maybe it’s too soon,” he remarked. “But I really do feel like now the position I’m in with all the information I’ve got – it has been over four years.” 

“Dad wasn’t the only person” who died because he was forced to take the mandated shots, said Warne. “There were hundreds of thousands and millions of people all around the world.”

“He was forced to get them… three or four doses.”

“He was healthy. He was happy.”
