Anti-vaccine advocates are finding women whose babies have died unexpectedly and convincing them vaccines are to blame.
Sometimes, a baby becomes a face of the movement without both parents' consent.Cooney describes Sophia as a happy 2-month-old, with her mother's blue eyes and sandy blond hair. The night Sophia died, Cooney came home from work to find his girlfriend and Sophia's mother, Laura Stanard, asleep on the couch in their Fort Collins, Colorado, apartment. He called 911 when he saw his daughter.
Sophia's death was an accident, caused by"asphyxiation due to being in a compromised position while co-sleeping," according to the coroner's report."The mother breastfed her on a sofa, and unfortunately fell asleep with her still in her arms." After Sophia's death, Cooney said he couldn't work. He and Stanard broke up, and soon after, Cooney moved to Las Vegas, then back home to Nebraska.
Cooney asked Stanard, Clobes and then GoFundMe to take down Sophia's campaign, and when those requests were ignored, he contacted the Fort Collins police, who opened an investigation into the GoFundMe account. After Cooney, friends and family loaded the campaign's comment section with complaints, it was taken down, having raised just $225. No charges were filed.
"I just want the truth out there: Babies asphyxiate, this happens," Cooney said."These anti-vaccination people are continuously contacting parents who have lost children, giving them false information and false hope. This stuff is wrong."Clobes calls Evee a"superhero" for her posthumous role in the anti-vaccine movement.
