Stéphanie Giguère: One Moderna Shot. Then Doctors Said It Was All in Her Head.
With Allan and Corri Hunsperger · Guest: Stéphanie Giguère Testimony
Allan and Corri revisit the powerful Allison Inquiry testimony of Stéphanie Giguère, a former British Columbia health authority psychotherapist who says she developed severe neurological symptoms shortly after receiving her first Moderna COVID-19 vaccine. Within 90 minutes, her hands began going numb, followed by debilitating headaches, speech difficulties, loss of motor control and widespread pain. Stéphanie recounts being diagnosed with a mental health disorder while struggling to obtain medical care, being treated as unvaccinated despite receiving one dose, and facing hostility from both sides of the COVID debate. She also describes her denied workers' compensation claim and the medical research she compiled in response. Her emotional testimony ends with a powerful declaration of faith in Jesus Christ and why she no longer believes government can make her whole.
