Claim : Gavin Creel died suddenly from turbo cancer!

Truth : Gavin Creel did not die suddenly from turbo cancer!
It’s now tradition for anti-vaccination activists to blame all athlete deaths or illnesses on the COVID-19 vaccine. Here are the reasons why this is yet another example of fake news created and propagated by anti-vaccine activists…
Gavin Creel died from metastatic cancer
Gavin Creel (born Gavin James Creel on 18 April 1976) was a Tony Award-winning American actor, singer, and songwriter who starred on American Horror Stories, and is best known for his work in musical theatre.
In July 2024, Gavin Creel was diagnosed with metastatic melanotic peripheral nerve sheath sarcoma – a rare and aggressive type of cancer affecting the connective tissue surrounding peripheral nerves. Creel died under hospice care at his Manhattan home on 30 September 2024, at the age of 48.
Such malignant melanotic nerve sheath tumours are aggressive, and have a poor prognosis. Even if caught early and surgically removed, research has shown that there is a local recurrence rate of 42%, a distant metastasis rate of 27%, and a mortality rate of 26%.
It was worse for Gavin Creel because his cancer was already “metastatic” by the time it was detected. In other words, it had already spread to other parts of his body. Hence, it is not surprising that his prognosis would be so grim, and he would die so quickly after diagnosis.
Turbo cancer does not exist
I should point out that there is no such thing as “turbo cancer”, and after billions of doses have been administered worldwide in the past 3.5 years – there is still no evidence that any COVID-19 vaccine can cause cancer, or make cancer go “turbo”.
In Creel’s case, it appears that he was diagnosed late, and the aggressive cancer had already spread (extensively?) to other parts of his body.
Needless to say, anti-vaccine activists provide no evidence to back their claims that vaccinated people are dying from turbo cancer. Ironically, they even accused unvaccinated people (and fellow anti-vaxxers) like Kirstie Alley of dying from turbo cancer!

Unknown if Gavin Creel was vaccinated against COVID-19
It is currently unknown if Gavin Creel was vaccinated against COVID-19, as he has not publicly mentioned his vaccination status. It is possible that Gavin Creel was unvaccinated against COVID-19, because the COVID-19 vaccine is not mandatory in the United States.
Ironically, many people who were injured or died suddenly were actually unvaccinated, like Kris Jordan, Aaron Carter, Kirstie Alley, Stephan Bonnar, Grayson Murray, Shane Macaulay, David Wayne Burleson, and Kaden Clymer.
Until and unless he (or his family) reveals his COVID-19 vaccination status, anyone who tells you that Gavin Creel was vaccinated or otherwise, is likely misinformed, or lying to you. None of us know that.
Playbill article shows Gavin Creel was vaccinated against flu
Some people claiming that Gavin Creel was fully-vaccinated have shared a screenshot of a Playbill article, highlighting this section:
Into the Woods stars Andy Karl, Stephanie J. Block, Gavin Creel, and more received their free vaccines following a matinee performance this past weekend.
What you may not realise is that – the Playbill article was referring to the flu vaccine, and not the COVID-19 vaccine. In short, Gavin Creel received the flu (influenza) vaccine in October 2022, not the COVID-19 vaccine.
