Dover was on live television receiving the vaccine, when about 17 minutes after she was administered the jab she fainted.
In the footage, the 30-year-old is seen telling ABC’s New Channel 9: “All my staff are excited to get the vaccine.
“We are in the Covid unit, so my team will be getting the first chances to get the vaccine.
“And I know that it’s really…”
She then cuts off and says: “I’m sorry I’m feeling really dizzy.”
Shortly afterwards, she slumps to the ground as colleagues move in to catch her.
However, despite her collapse she was able to stand up and speak with news teams again a short time later.
Social media sleuths noticed that Dover had not posted on her Instagram account for five days, when she normally posts every couple of days.
“It’s common for me,” she said about her fainting.
Doctors at the hospital later said the incident was not a reaction to the ingredients of the vaccine.
Since receiving the jab, Dover has been inactive on all of her social media accounts and has not been seen in the public eye, promoting users to flood her pages with comments and concern as rumors continue to circulate of her “death.”
What did Dover say after she recovered from the faint?
“She never lost consciousness and quickly recovered.”
The Associated Press reported that Dover “was back on her feet shortly after passing out” and told reporters, “It’s common for me. I feel fine now.”
The hospital also released a statement after administering its first vaccinations, explaining that “Shortly after and while conducting a media interview, one of the nurses became dizzy and was assisted to the floor.
In an interview with Chattanooga TV stations just minutes after she recovered from the faint, Dover said: “I have a history of having an over-active vagal response, and so with that if I have pain from anything, a hangnail or if I stub my toe, I just pass out.”
