The Belgian media assured that Sinistra asked to be released from the hospital by signing the voluntary discharge on December 13. Two days later he died after suffering cardiac arrest. His wife reported the death via Facebook and assured that it was not due to COVID-19.
“My husband has not died of Covid. I would never have accepted that what happened to him was used to spread fear and demand vaccination, “said the athlete’s wife.
In addition, in his message, he also blamed the “sensationalist” media and relatives of Sinastra for taking the opportunity to send a message against COVID-19.
“The tabloid press and some of their relatives are happy on social networks since my silence and absence comes from my pain, not from fear or lack of answers to all these people who say they have met my husband,” he concluded.
