Tennessee native Brittany Burnette devoted her life to caring for the elderly, putting her patients first as a nursing home director. But after dutifully rolling up her sleeve for the COVID shot, she found herself in a nightmare she never could have imagined—one where her bones were literally rotting inside her body, Daily Mail first reported.
Burnette, now 34, took the Pfizer vaccine in January 2021, believing she was protecting herself and her vulnerable patients. But months later, she developed unbearable pain in both hips.
Doctors initially dismissed her suffering as arthritis—at just 31 years old. Yet the pain only worsened, forcing her into a wheelchair. Finally, after undergoing an MRI, the shocking truth emerged: her hip bones were dying.
By December 2021, Burnette had to undergo her first hip replacement. Just months later, she needed a second. What followed was an unrelenting cascade of surgeries—shoulders, knees, elbows, feet—all as her bones continued to collapse.
“Even though I have had all of these replacements and surgeries, I am still in constant deep bone pain every day,” she told Daily Mail.
“It isn’t as bad as bone death pain but some days are still unbearable. The pain is so bad some days it takes everything I have to get out of bed and move, let alone be a mother and wife… Doctors think I will likely suffer with bone pain for the rest of my life.”
After nearly a year of suffering, a doctor made the connection that many refuse to acknowledge: the COVID vaccine had triggered a catastrophic immune response, cutting off the blood supply to her bones.
