    I didn’t realize you owned stock in the pharmaceutical companies. Anyway, don’t have a heart attack over this.

    Well we know what’s not to blame: “ A study yesterday in the British Journal of Sports Medicine from researchers at the Amsterdam University Medical Centers (UMC) reviews all current literature on athletes, sudden cardiac arrest, and myocarditis following COVID-19 vaccines, and finds that athletes engaged in intensive activity are not at increased risk for heart complications following vaccination.”

    So please stop the fear mongering and the spreading of lies. If you were truly concerned about the lives of young people you should start looking at the main cause of death for people under the age of 18.

    Caleb White, a 17-year-old basketball player from Alabama, died suddenly from cardiac arrest while practicing on August 11. Caleb was #3 in the state and # 43 in the nation in terms of potential. The young man wasn’t as lucky as Bronny James, who survived a similar cardiac event. Looks like the new demographic for heart attacks are kids under twenty.
