Port St. Joe is a small, hard luck port city in the Florida panhandle.

Damar Hamlin shouldn’t really be in this list.
While he did have heart problems it was because he got a very brutal pop in the chest.
Not like he was just standing or even running and he collapsed.

Data in NCAA athletes suggests that the most common rank list of causes of SCD may merit re-evaluation. In a study by Harmon et al., which reviewed all deaths among NCAA athletes from 2003 to 2013, the most common finding at autopsy for SCD cases was a structurally normal heart (25%), implying that arrhythmias and other electrical disorders may be the most common etiology.

Coronary anomalies were the second most common finding and were present at a similar proportion as was previously reported (11%), but definitive HCM was far less frequent—only 8% of SCD cases vs. 30% to 40% in prior studies. The authors note that this may be due to different definitions of HCM (as opposed to potential athletic remodeling) used at autopsy as well as the population included in their study compared to prior studies.

In a study done by Meagan M. Wasfy, M.D., Adolph M. Hutter, M.D., and Rory B. Weiner, M.D. prior to 2014, sudden cardiac death (SCD) is the most frequent medical cause of sudden death in athletes, and estimates vary widely based on the population. A recent estimate of SCD incidence ranged from 1 in 40,000 to 1 in 80,000 athletes per year. And this study was prior to the use of covid vaccines. So SCD has been an issue for many years.

According to the NCAA, the overall incidence of sudden cardiac death (SCD) among National Collegiate Athletic Association athletes has decreased over the past 20 years. Despite the reduction in SCD incidence, the SCD rate remains highest among specific cohorts, including Division I Black and White male basketball players (>1:2000 over a 4-year career). There were no cases of death attributable to COVID-19 myocarditis. So that thought is still unproven. And with the amounts of deaths lessoning over the last 20 years when they should have increased by the use of covid vaccine there is no proof the vaccines were an issue or an instrument.

It doesn’t happen all the time but it’s far from being unheard of. I compiled a list of 2017 collapses (pre-covid) just to show that it’s not a new phenomenon. Have you been living a sheltered life or do such stories just get more press since Covid? Keep in mind that these cases are for only one year, 2017, and are not necessarily an exhaustive list.

Just a snarky comment on the headline:

If he was healthy, he wouldn’t have just dropped dead.

There are a lot of other issues that are coming into play: Diet, other drugs, and pre-existing but undiagnosed conditions, should be reviewed.

That said, I got my second shot back in 2021 on a Monday. By the end of the week I was in the hospital with a huge blood clot in my leg. I had no pre-existing conditions.

It might be the Vax…but I agree with you that this stuff was not rare prior to covid. I spent 13 years on the sidelines of NCAA games across New England. While kids dropping dead was not an every day thing, it happened every other year or so. Most of the time the location and school was small and aside from an initial report, it never really made the news.

I never witnessed it first hand, but I showed up the next game and saw the aftermath.

Understood. And I’m not saying that vaxx’s haven’t played some role, but clearly they can’t be responsible for all the collapses.

I only looked at a few but I assume all of them are stories of sudden deaths. So it follows these things do happen then.

I can’t explain why I don’t remember any young athletes collapsing and dying or why anyone I know does not either.

But you have the news reports right here so...

Thanks for clearing that up.

>>”I only looked at a few but I assume all of them are stories of sudden deaths.”

Yes, they’re all examples of young, seemingly healthy athletes collapsing. Not all of them died, but most of them did. It’s certainly not an everyday occurrence, but it does happen from time to time. It even happens on the professional level sometimes.

Miami Dolphin’s linebacker Larry Gordon collapsed and died in 1983 while jogging during the offseason. He was 28 years old.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larry_Gordon

In 1971 Detroit Lions Wide Receiver Chuck Hughes suffered a fatal heart attack on the field during a televised regular season game.

More recently NHL goalie Michael Neuvirth collapsed during a game but fortunately survived.

This is going down a Florida football health related very deep rabbit hole, so you've been warned...

Just follow the money.

A new study from a couple of months ago.

It's a stunner, but I'll warn you that you have to read the entire paper to see why...

Long-term risk of autoimmune diseases after mRNA-based SARS-CoV2 vaccination in a Korean, nationwide, population-based cohort study

Look carefully to see the data on myocarditis, pericarditis, and GBS. Note the age group.

They buried the lede very nicely, didn't they... I won't print the rest of what I'm thinking.

So.....what do the life insurance companies say? Are they raising their rates? I’ll trust their data over the Deep State’s.
