I posted a report of this"The U.S. Navy lost an F-35 strike fighter during what it characterized as a "landing mishap." The incident took place on January 24 in the South China Sea as the carrier USS Carl Vinson was training with other warships in the region. The service will send a salvage team to recover the aircraft—before China does.
According to a statement from the U.S. Pacific Fleet, the incident occurred as the plane was landing. It also says the pilot "safely ejected," was recovered by a helicopter, and is in stable condition. All told, seven sailors were injured in the accident, with three flown to a medical treatment facility in Manila, the Philippines, and four treated on-ship."

the report i posted did say that the pilot had a vaccine reaction and failed to land on a carrier.
If you're waiting for the pilot or the navy to confirm or deny it. fine.
but FYI
"Army flight surgeon says pilots risk ‘sudden cardiac death’ from COVID vaccine side effect"

If it were only this you questioned we wouldn't even be having this discussion.
