    Climate change gave Bronny the right hook.

    Hope he makes a full, healthy recovery and lives a long life (whether that includes basketball or not).

    What on earth is Twitter feeding you?
    Also the rise in heart disease is because we are collectively getting fatter and fatter. Is it just because it’s too hot to go outside? Unlikely.

    LOL
    Bronny did not have a heart attack from coronary artery disease. But nearly everyone who does have a heart attack has coronary artery disease.
    Curious.

    I have no reason at all to associate Bronny's misfortune to COVID-19, side effects from any vaccines, climate change, UFOs, 5G, transgenderism, Ukrainians, Russians, Jason Aldean, Hunter Biden or whatever flavor of the month has people worked up.

    I was referring to the article JR included.

    "
    Since that heat wave in 1995, climate change has intensified globally with wildfires, hurricanes, droughts, heat waves and cold spells leading to famine and drought. As a result of these extreme changes, the medical community is noticing an increasing rate of heart disease.

    "The world we live in right now is not a very hospitable environment for the heart," Gulati said. "With heart disease prevention, we tend to focus on controlling blood pressure and lipids, but we should consider the other aspects of prevention, like our environment."


    Sixty-two percent of deaths attributed to climate change were from cardiovascular disease, according to a study published in Lancet in 2020"

    I don't know what caused it, but it feels like this kind of stuff has been happening a lot more to young people than in the past?

    Almost everyone has contracted covid in some form. It could very well be that, a vax, or heightened bias.

    I think they should definitely research if there has been an increase in blood clots, myocarditis, cardiac arrests, especially in younger people where this used to be very uncommon. And if so, they should research with an open mind what the causes might be (including vaccination history and potential correlation/causation).

    I had chest pains after getting Covid shortly after the lockdowns, which later matched up with myocarditis. It doesn't go fully away and I've forgotten if I felt it again after the Moderna vax or when I caught Omicron. It was especially noticable during times of stress.

    Granted, I'm a lazy guy who doesn't like to run, so prob a personal reminder to do more cardio. No chance I'll do whatever drills Brony is doing...

    We are actually researching this including sub-analysis looking for any causality.

    Excess Deaths Among Republicans Skyrocketed After Covid Vaccine Became Available, Study Finds

    More Republicans died than Democrats after the Covid vaccine was released

    As covid vaccines started to roll out in February 2021, misinformation and conspiracy theories surrounding the shot were on the rise—as were the deaths of Republican voters.

    A new study from Yale University looked at 538,159 people in Ohio and Florida starting on May 1, 2021, and focused on counties that reported lower vaccination rates. In the first year of the pandemic, the number of covid-related deaths was evenly dispersed among both Democrats and Republicans, but that quickly changed within a month after the vaccine became available to all U.S. adults.

    The study found the “excess mortality was significantly higher for Republican voters than Democratic voters after COVID-19 vaccines were available to all adults, but not before,” noting that the death rate for Republican voters was 43% higher than for Democratic voters after the vaccine was widely available. However, the study notes that the data did not include whether the individual was vaccinated or if their deaths were directly linked to covid-19, but researchers looked at the divide in political party-affiliated deaths between January 2018 and December 2021 and compared the pre-pandemic death rate to deaths recorded post-Covid vaccine...
