Did you buy from the same garden centre or store? Sometimes they are affected in huge numbers from the greenhouses they start them in. ...and often go to the same store.Try a new purchasing place and add some good soil into your garden soil. I think this should help.

Hello Nancy, I am wondering if your soil is lacking in nutrients. I recommend putting 1 tablespoon of Epson Salt in a gallon of water and after it dilutes, sprinkle it on the soil around your plants. Water the garden soon after. The extra water will help the soil receive the Epson Salt . I hope this helps you. Good luck.
You can always plant your tomatoes in flower pots and put them on your porch. Use rich potting soil and water them. We did this and it worked very well.
If you smoke around the plant or handled by a smoker without gloves. The nicotine kills tomatoes and strawberry plants
I'm not saying nicotine is not toxic to these plants, but I am a smoker. I don't smoke indoors and therefore frequently smoke while I'm gardening. I have currently 6 foot cherry tomatoe plants and 5 foot bushy Roma tomatoe plants. All 3 of my strawberry patches yielded fruit enough to share with the birds and chipmunks. I would look into another reason for crop failure prone to those particular plants be it either fungal or insect. 🤔
We actually called the Clemson agricultural extension. They suggested we buy one hybrid and one heirloom tomato to plant. When they die we will dig them up and take them to Clemson to have them analized.

My healthy-one-minute-dead-the-next turned out to be vole tunnels
We finally were able to stop Verticillium wilt by co-planting with buckwheat and using disease resistant plants. We only see a little late wilt now and are able to pull of the leaves before they spread, and early yellowing is gone completely. We have a post om this here at HomeTalk. https://www.hometalk.com/posts/get-rid-of-verticillium-wilt-on-tomatoes-by-planting-buckwheat-44608888
