Army Specialist Karoline Stancik says Army left her out to dry even after they discovered her POTS heart condition was vaccine-induced.
The US Army and National Guard refused to support a soldier after she developed a crippling heart condition due to receiving a military-mandated Covid mRNA vaccine, a new report reveals.
According to a new exposé on X from former CBS News reporter Catherine Herridge, the US military left Army Specialist Karoline Stancik, 24, out to dry even after acknowledging a link between her heart condition known as POTS, or “postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome,” and the Covid jab.
BREAKING: Army and National Guard accused of abandoning 24-year-old soldier with “debilitating heart condition” that internal memo “linked” to COVID-19 mRNA vaccine.

Stancik explained she received two Moderna shots, with her first dose on April 17, 2021, only causing her mild side effects, including cough, chest pain and a headache.
However, after her second jab on Mar. 20, Stancik says she suffered a severe adverse reaction that caused her “neuropathic pain.”
“It felt like a burning sensation throughout my whole body,” Stancik described. “I was having chest pain breathing issues and really high heart rate and dizziness. It felt like a balloon was blowing up in my chest.”
Stancik proceeded to be discharged from active duty, thereby losing her health insurance and income. She later became homeless and saddled with over $70,000 in mounting debt due to her medical expenses.
After 19 months, the Army Human Resources Command informed Stancik she did indeed qualify for benefits due to her jab-induced POTS condition happening “in line of duty.”
While she now receives Army health benefits, Stancik maintains following orders “cost my whole life” and she was “left behind and trampled” by the organization that prides itself on leaving no man behind.
“They watched it, they came back, walked all over me, and then left again.”
The exposé is dubbed “episode one” of a series from Herridge titled, “The Cost of Following Orders.”
