Quote:

A Dominican basketball player died this week from an apparent heart attack after previously blaming a case of myocarditis on two 'compulsory' doses of the Pfizer vaccine he received during the COVID-19 pandemic.

scar Cabrera Adames, 28, was battling myocarditis an inflammation of the heart prompting a stress test in Santo Domingo this week, where he suffered a heart attack and died, according to multiple reports. It is not clear if the stress test caused the heart attack. Dominican sports writer Hector Gomez was among the first to report on his passing.

Myocarditis reduces the heart's ability to pump blood, making strenuous exercise potentially fatal, according to the American Heart Association.

Quote:

After his death, Cabrera Adames' old social media posts resurfaced, showing him blaming the rare disease on the COVID vaccine.

'I got a damn Myocarditis from taking a f***ing vaccine (I got 2 doses of Pfizer),' read a portion of his translated social media post from January. 'And I knew it! Many people warned me. But guess what? It was compulsory or I couldn't work. I am an international professional athlete and I am playing in Spain. I have no health problem, nothing, not hereditary, no asthma, NOTHING!'

Quote:

A 14-year-old boy has suffered a stroke while attending a wrestling camp - leaving him on a ventilator after he was rushed to hospital for emergency brain surgery.

Luke Champion, from Tuttle, was attending a camp at Oklahoma State University and had just won a fight when he lost consciousness on Thursday.

The middle-schooler was taken to Stillwater Hospital where he underwent multiple brain surgeries including a thrombectomy and craniotomy.
Quote:

Once they arrived at the hospital 'he immediately went in and had a thrombectomy, which is when they go in and basically retrieve the clot,' Luke's mother told the channel.

'He started experiencing some brain swelling and not just really waking up.

'They went in and did a craniotomy, which is basically they open up the side of his skull and it allows for his brain to expand' she explained.

On Monday doctors woke Luke up and took him off his ventilator.

Most Provaxxers think they are going to live forever through modern science. I'm confident that many of them have not seriously contemplated their own deaths.

Most Anti Vaxxers (I am one on Covid shot) seem to have forgotten that people, young and old, healthy and unhealthy, die in weird unexplainable ways. **** just happens.

It's just horseshoe theory.

COVID nuts thought every death was due to COVID.

Anti-Vaxxers think every death is due to the vaccine.

Two sides of the same morbid coin.

1) I'm fully vaxxed, except for the covid bull****
2) I posted stories without comment and never said it was the vax. Just chronicling information here for future reference.
3) Do try and keep up.

2) Nobody attacked you personally. I'm commenting on the similarity between the two ends of the horseshoe.

Quote:

The group that is most likely to develop myocarditis or pericarditis after getting the COVID-19 vaccine is young men aged 12 to 39. These side effects usually showed up after the second dose and within a week of vaccination.
However, the risk for anyone who gets vaccinated is very low.
"Myocarditis or pericarditis after a COVID-19 vaccine is extremely rare after a primary vaccination," says Dr. Johnson. "It is even more rare after a booster dose."
Young men ages 12 to 39 can wait longer between their first and second dose (of their primary vaccine series) to reduce their risk of myocarditis or pericarditis. They should wait 8 weeks between shots.
All other groups should wait 3 weeks (for those who got the Pfizer vaccine) or 4 weeks (for those who got the Moderna vaccine) between primary vaccination doses.
They know it's a thing. They know it's not a conspiracy. They even tell young men to wait longer in between 1st & 2nd dose to reduce the risk of myocarditis. Why risk anything when Covid has so little impact on a healthy young male.

Not an athlete, but still.

"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill

Personally knew of one person under the age of 50 who died of a heart attack between 1980 and 2020.

Since 2020, I know of six otherwise healthy people under 50 who'd just dropped dead unexpectedly.

since the other thread seems to have been nixed, let's not forget that LeBron was vocal about his doubts about the vaccine initially. leads me to believe that maybe his family didn't take it.

The vaccine was criminal. Nobody can deny the incidence of heart and blood problems has increased greatly among the vaccinated. The deniers define "gaslighting".

He changed his mind and said that the vaccine "was best suited for not only me but my family and my friends." Doesn't mean his son took but he did change his stance.

A number of folks sat on here for two years and told people not to touch the hot stove, but they went and did it anyway.

Now they got to live with the scar.

Nobody learnt anything though. Next go round they'll be first in line.

So its an unfortunate situation.

Quote:

A 19 year-old Mormon collapsed and died of heart failure in front of his stunned family moments after telling them his first mission would be to his dream country - Japan.

Liam Mildenstein was on his way to Provo from his home in Miami for a vacation when he got the call and began reading aloud his two-year missionary assignment for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Mildenstein collapsed suddenly, falling backward onto the floor and never regained his pulse.

Quote:

Kaelten said that this was a true shock, noting that in the past week he and his brother went to amusement parks and to the gym together.
I don't know his vax status but a healthy normal 19 yr old dropping dead due to heart failure is very common.

What's the full story here? If the parents didn't think the covid shot was safe, they should have not let him play hockey. I don't support the covid shot and think the requirement for him to get one to play hockey is dumb, but those parent's need to set priorities.

You got a lot of stuff wrong. Kid is 17-yr-old hockey player. Parents are divorved. Kid was forced to take vaccine if he wanted to play hockey. He got pfizer vax without telling his father. Not sure if mother knew.

Kid went to emergency 4 days after first vax, died 33 days after first vax. Father tried to enter this into Canadian VAERS system and was DENIED. They told him he couldn't prove tje vax caused death. Autopsy did not find cause of death, though a doctor Ryan Cole found massive amounts of spike protein in the adrenal gland (not caused by infection or covid).
