    I am glad to hear that he made it through. Sudden cardiac arrest is often times fatal.

    Post a link that the vaccine created a condition that caused this cardiac arrest. For example, identify when Bronnie was last vaccinated. Identify if they diagnosed inflammation in his heart as a cause. Otherwise, the speculation that the vaccine caused this is just irresponsible.

    Yes, fear of contagion is as old as “gods are angry.”

    But the earliest Christians were recorded as ministering to lepers, when others wouldn’t, and the Gospels recount the story of the leper who was ecstatic because Jesus touched him.

    Difference between the Black Death and 2020: back then something like the Biblical faith, fairly deeply rooted, was the cultural norm. And many abandoned that faith based on the unfounded assumption that the Bible points to an absence of suffering in this life.

    Further, they succumbed to panic and despair because death was all around them.

    Whereas in 2020 America, a place where the faith is a mile wide and an inch deep, people succumbed to panic and despair based on *reports* of people dying all around them.

    Late addition: the so-called Black Death points away from contagion and to famine and starvation. To wit …

    This study shows that human landscapes everywhere did not significantly change, let alone collapse, in the immediate wake of the Black Death,” says Newfield. “In some regions, labor-intensive land use systems remained in place; in other regions, they expanded; in others yet, they collapsed. The impact of the pandemic varied region to region.”

    Bottom line: it can’t have been the vaccine because it can’t have been the vaccine.

    People die within 24 hours of vaccine, CSI types cut them open and ask, “Do you see vaccine in there ? Nope. I don’t see vaccine in there. Close him up!”

    We know that prescription drugs are a leading cause of death in the US, even when taken as prescribed.

    But there is no way vaccines could be killing people. Because no way.

    In here, questioning the covid vax puts you on a level slightly worse than a pedophile.

    Rational people in this thread :

    "maybe it was the vaccine, but we don't even know if he took the vaccine. It's all speculation unless we have more information"

    I don't have his medical records, but I would wager a large amount of cash that King Woke had his son vaccinated, with boosters.

    LeBron James on Tuesday said he received the COVID-19 vaccine despite his initial skepticism. The Los Angeles Lakers star spoke with reporters on the Lakers' annual media day for the upcoming season, saying he and his family got the vaccine after he did his own research.

    Interesting that he was "very skeptical" about getting vaccinated in the beginning. I reckon LeBron was battling his inner QAnon. At the least, he seems very respectful and understanding towards those who chose not to vaccinate, based on this article.

    I think he was being PC getting the shot and saw that he would be losing money if he didn't get it.

    there is a correlation between the shots, which are now well-known for their ability to cause heart inflammation, and the rise in sudden death among young and healthy people.
    it's just as irresponsible to not speculate or ask the question. the scientific method asks questions. the science worshipper method finds data that agrees with and discards data that does not align with the formulated model. then they tell you to trust the science of their model. the science that told you you could not get covid or pass it along if you got the jab. an irregular amount of young athletes are collapsing. everyday i hear a new story of an athlete or young person with heart failure or blood clots. it's a new constant. defibrillators should be in every high school in america and many people on campus should know how to use them.

    ^ Lebron’s seemingly charitable attitude stands in stark contrast to the far too many, like Noam Chomsky, who proposed that the unvaccinated be rounded up and starved to death.

    No, I will never forget.

    Has there been a study that has shown the rate of cardiac issues has increased substantially since COVID and the COVID vaccine? Has there been a single study that shows vaccinated individuals are more at risk than unvaccinated? Or, are we seeing the effect of more reporting on younger people dying, but in reality, the rate of incidence is exactly the same.

    According to a 2018 study, about 1 in 50,000 to 1 in 80,000 young athletes die of cardiac events every year. Recent studies also show unvaccinated people infected with COVID are at grater risk than those who were vaccinated. A 2019 study also shows that the rate of cardiac events in young people have been rising for a decade. Note, this study is all pre-COVID.

    Put it all together, and we aren't seeing anything that says the vaccine is the cause. Cardiac events in younger people were on the rise before COVID, and those infected with COVID who were unvaccinated are at higher risk of cardiac events than those vaccinated. If anyone has actual data and studies that show otherwise, I'm happy to read them.
