20-Year-Old Nursing Student Dies Suddenly of Cardiac Arrest One Day After Being Forced to Get COVID-19 Shot
Regan Lewis died unexpectedly at the Kearney Regional Medical Center in Kearney, NE a day after receiving the COVID-19 shot required for nursing clinical.
In a post on her social media account, Regan’s mother, Connie Werth Lewis, said, “I can’t say for sure that there is a link, but our beautiful 20-year-old healthy daughter, Regan Lewis had a Covid shot yesterday so she could participate in her clinical.”
“Today, she went into cardiac arrest and has been flown to Kearney. She is on a ventilator and is fighting for her life,” she added.
An excerpt from her obituary can be found below:
She was born in Hays, KS, on April 9, 2002, to Patrick and Connie (Werth) Lewis. Regan grew up on the family farm where she loved being around animals.
She enjoyed training horses, barrel racing, working and sorting cattle, and driving the combine. She was active in 4-H and FCCLA president.
One of her favorite FCCLA projects was training her cat Tigger (Tubby) to become a service cat, which she took to the state level. Regan was also a talented artist and liked painting. Along with caring for animals, Regan was good at caring for people, which led her to pursue a career in nursing.
Regan worked her way up from a CNA to a CMA, and then in May of 2022 became a Licensed Practical Nurse. She worked at Colby Health and Rehab and was continuing her studies at Colby Community College to receive her Associates Degree in Nursing and to become a Registered Nurse.
Regan was preceded in death by her grandparents, Julian Werth, Ronald Lewis and Jeannine Lewis; uncle Larri Lewis and her trained service cat Tigger (Tubby).
