Approximately 20 Attendees On Stage At Trump Rally Reportedly Experience Mysterious Symptoms – Eye Irritation, Facial Swelling & Blurred Vision


According to reports, multiple attendees of the Donald Trump rally in Tucson, Arizona, said they experienced mysterious symptoms and sought medical attention.

“Many supporters seated behind Trump onstage went to the ER after the rally with ‘blurred vision’ and ‘burning’ to the eyes,” Arizona Globe journalist Christy Kelly said.

“I spoke to several who still have not fully recovered. As many as 20 were affected,” she added.

Per Arizona Globe:

While the rally drew a large and enthusiastic crowd, it ended with an unexpected turn of events. Approximately 20 attendees, primarily members of the “Latinos for Trump” group who had been onstage, reported becoming ill with mysterious symptoms shortly after the rally concluded. All those who reported falling ill were seated on the side of the stage where Trump made his entrance before approaching the podium.

Pastor Eli Moreno, who opened the rally with prayer, and his wife, Francesca Moreno, were among those affected. Pastor Moreno said that he experienced mild discomfort, but his wife’s symptoms were far more severe. On their drive home, Mrs. Moreno’s nose began to run, her vision blurred, and her face swelled up. They stopped at a Walgreens and encountered another rallygoer with similar symptoms. Mrs. Moreno stated that emergency room doctors flushed her eyes earlier and referred her to an ophthalmologist. Five days later, she was just beginning to feel better.

Mayra Rodriguez, another attendee, also fell ill 30 minutes after leaving the rally, experiencing burning eyes and a severe headache. By the time she arrived at the emergency room, she could no longer open her eyes. After performing a dye test, the doctor informed her that she had suffered a chemical burn. Days later, she continued suffering from blurry vision and light sensitivity.

Several other attendees shared similar stories with The Arizona Globe. The reported symptoms, including blurred vision, severe eye pain, and facial swelling, appeared roughly 30 minutes after the rally ended. One attendee used milk to ease the burning before heading to the hospital, while another reported his face turning red and peeling. They stated that the emergency room staff told them they were not alone—multiple patients from the rally had come in with the same complaints.

“The Trump campaign has been collecting information. We remain committed to the countless patriots that attend our high-energy, high-impact rallies across the country,” a Trump campaign senior advisor said.

News 4 Tucson reports:

The N4T Investigators spoke with a brother and sister that were seated near Mayra, they did not want to be identified.

“It kept getting worse and worse, my eyes were watering a lot, my nose started running then I started feeling my face get really flushed and my neck felt like it was on fire and it just progressed from there,” the sister said.

Her brother told us, “It was all focused on my eyes, my eyes were red like hell you know, it’s unbearable. I couldn’t handle it.”

The other supporters who did not agree to on camera told us about very similar injuries. One woman who is a local realtor said she had to cancel all her showings over the weekend because she couldn’t see well.

Rodriguez said she reported her experience to the Trump campaign and was told it was investigating.

“The U.S. Secret Service tells us it was not made aware of the situation but said there was no known threat to former president Trump,” News 4 Tucson noted.
