Iconic 2000s band member left bed-bound by 'debilitating' medical issues after getting COVID vaccine: 'On the brink of death' | 18 March 2025 | Pussycat Dolls alum Jessica Sutta sustained a debilitating injury after getting the COVID-19 vaccine. The singer, 42, said she began experiencing horrific symptoms just days after receiving her second dose of the Moderna vaccine in 2021. "I woke up with a muscle spasm in my right rib that just would not get out," she recalled during an interview with Daily Mail published Tuesday. "It felt like a knife inside was burning. It wrapped around my rib cage and up and down my spine, and it felt like I was on the brink of death." "There are many people in the industry way, bigger than me with a bigger outreach, with vaccine injuries. But they won't speak out..." While doctors initially thought Sutta had multiple sclerosis and dismissed concerns that her pain was caused by the vaccine, she finally got some answers seven months ago when she was diagnosed with vaccine-induced lupus.
