I am deeply sorry to read about your friend and wish you and the families involved the strength to get through during this difficult time. I do have first-hand experience as I lost my brother-in-law to Covid, again a relatively fit guy, was a delivery driver had tested clear on an LFT, feeling rough went home, later taken into hospital and a few days later died of Kidney failure because of Covid.
Covid affects different people in different ways, and we still have much to learn.
Some people here in the UK, still just do not get it, if it does not happen to them, it does not happen. I was picking up a prescription from the pharmacy for a family member and whilst I was waiting, a guy in his mid 30s was proceeding to tell me how it was all a conspiracy and did I know how low the death rate was in Staffordshire, as far as he was concerned there is not a pandemic and there has never been one.
Finally, we recently had protests in London over lock downs, meanwhile all the funeral pyres were being shown in India, totally ironic. So, you are not on your own, stupidity over refusing the vaccine is not exclusive to the Philippines we have a high number here in the UK still refusing it despite outbreaks of the Indian variant in the UK.
You take care now.
