Deceptive videos used to link athlete deaths to COVID shots
The Associated Press, Breitbart ^ | December, 17th, 2021 | ANGELO FICHERA and SOPHIA TULP

Posted on 12/26/2021 6:51:37 AM PST by David Chase

Jake West was a seemingly healthy 17-year-old when he collapsed during high school football practice in Indiana and died of sudden cardiac arrest. A video widely shared online falsely suggests COVID-19 vaccination is to blame, weaving headlines about him into a rapid-fire compilation of news coverage about athletes collapsing.

The vaccine played no role in West’s death — he died from an undiagnosed heart condition in 2013, seven years before the pandemic began.

“My tragedy of losing my son is always upsetting, and to think that somebody would use that for their gain is very upsetting,” she said. “It’s mind-boggling to me that there are people out there like that that want to spread or have their own agenda.”

I find this ‘misinformation’ no better or no worse than the official misinformation put out by the accepted authorities.

Okay, I'm about had it up to here with the word 'misinformation'. let's be real people and call lies what they are. Lies.

I swear people get ahold of a fancy new word and come off so nerdly with it. Its all misinformation this', and 'misinformation that'.

53 isnt “most” of 108, znd you know they ‘lied how, and weren’t just sloppy researchers? So are you saying that 55 athletes did die after getting vaxxed since only 53 were debunked? Also, how do you know the 53 that were disputed were actually factually disputed? Maybe there is some hedging going on with the disputes too? (I don’t know, but when questioning, then Question everything )

I posted a story about that, a long time ago. It was scuffed at.

Like that's something new? I'd think you had natural immunity by now.

Indeed. Thanks to Trump we got vaccines much faster than China thought we would. Now to keep their pandemic going they are all-in on boosting the anti-vax movement to limit the effect of Trump’s vaccines.

Tin foil hat alert!!!

No good morning, no Merry Christmas, no nuffin. Anyway, Belated Merry Christmas. Dear Diary, I got my wife a Signed Copy of President Trump’s Book for Christmas/Hanukkah. The second I saw the news of it, I jump right on it. I was #1,218th person to order one. Even as fast as I went, still plenty ahead of me. She really liked it.

I appreciate your ongoing work. You have managed to bring out the entire conga line today. Including the one who has his posts removed for attacks with no substance when no one is talking with him.

At its root of course you are correct. Get vaccinate or dont. But what really cracks me up is that there are a scattered few here who absolutely won’t look at data and find middle ground. They must be right at all costs. It is precisely this stance that drives division. Not you. Your calling out Tenpenny was appropriate. Medscape published an article on one of the other dirty dozen who lied about his ongoing university affiliation and was sued and has been thrown of staff s numerous universities because he is not accurately analyzing data and instead advancing a political which is likely a profitable agenda

There have been numerous examples of people who differ and still get things done. We no longer concentrate on the 80% of things that we all agree on and work from that, we destroy people who are not 100% with us. Its true on both sides.

This is what should change.

Many more deaths in 2021.

The vaccines don’t kill everyone. They just contribute to the death of vulnerable people.

That’s why looking at all-cause mortality rates is most important, and by that standard the vaccines hurt more than they help. https://www.canadiancovidcarealliance.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/The-COVID-19-Inoculations-More-Harm-Than-Good-REV-Dec-16-2021.pdf

One can’t just say, “The Vaccines are Evil” and expect to get clicks.

Very true.

Which is why they post evidence we can see with or very own rods and cones. We used to call that journalism.

Do you know what the word 'evidence' means, or did they not discuss that in nursing school.

yeah, i doubt you and your biased leftist sources. show me a FIFA report and i’ll have less doubt.

i went though your thread. not convincing. one guy supported you mentioning 20 deaths (no time period, no context).

the issue is not that athletes at peak performance can die on the field (i played football as a young man and know of at least 2 personally who died on the field).

my experience was way before sports drinks and big drugs. the point is that it was rare.

i’m talking about 2 in the space of my playing career which was about 12 years.

now were talking 3 in 5 days. you’re kidding me. when coinidence piles up in to a massive heap, you’re talking probable cause.

I wonder if we’ll ever heal.

Some of the things said to each other of been way over the top.

I do fear our divisions will be long lasting and might even force some to take on a new path, a new belief, following.

Trust, decency, are so low.

Yet none of us, from either side, thought process, belief, had anything to do with these last 2 years.

China killed so many people. China destroyed so much. I feel like when this Pandemic is over, and the great wrecking ball has stopped, we’ll still be watching parts of buildings falling. For years.

Have a great day Doc. Merry Christmas to you and all of your family.

I don't think anyone's asking you to do nothing. Just be honest in what you do.

Okay.

"So, I decided to post the story."

And then add your biting commentary. "First mistake" indeed.

Pardon if I'm a bit sensitive, but your 'fact-checking' source hails from the same camp which censored me and continues to do so.

In short, if your intent was to highlight the affronts of those who create & parrot abject lies, your post was LAZY.

Aside from the obvious question of "Why?" Breitbart is running AP material, the larger question is why pro 'vaccine' FReepers seem so keen to supporting the stifling of the flow of information.

There is no question our enemies are fomenting divisions among us - including our own government - but your premise in defense of a 'safe/effective vaccine' is egregiously flawed when the evidence is viewed logically & pragmatically.

The fact remains that the establishment has been forced to acknowledge - despite prior denials and labeling of misinformation itself - the very real risk of myocarditis. Furthermore, the medical evidence of the effect upon the heart muscle has been incontrovertibly documented.

In an environment where young & healthy children/young adults with little-to-no risk of severe illness are being compelled to get the vaccine, it requires suspension of disbelief that athletes - who harbor a higher risk of heart problems as it is, for reasons I'm not going into here - wouldn't be at greater risk of cardiac arrest resulting from 'vaccine' induced damage to the heart muscle.

Your post is egregiously deceptive and, notably, manipulative, considering your comment "Get Vaccinated if you want, or don’t if you prefer" in a post about athletes, many of whom have NO CHOICE but to get jabbed under unrelenting pressure, coercion and restricted information.

My retort - FAR from being a 'fact-check' - is merely to provide the information you - and the biased source - lazily omitted:

For the record, the link to the offending video (which neither you, Brietbart or AP had the balls to post):

WHY ARE HEALTHY ATHLETES COLLAPSING?

And also for the record, the facts on Jake West, which took me a whopping 15 seconds to fact check for myself without a flipping AP pro ‘vaccine’ article

3 high school athletes died of sudden cardiac arrest. Their moms are fighting back.

Yes, “PRO VACCINE”:

“A rare risk of myocarditis, a condition that causes inflammation of the heart and tends to occur mostly in young men and teen boys, has been associated with the mRNA vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna. Those affected usually recover quickly, however, and health officials have concluded that the benefits of vaccination outweigh the risks.”

And so let’s have a debate about it, right?

German news agency compiles a list of 75 European athletes who have died "suddenly" in the past 5 months since being fully vaccinated. Hmmmm....

382 Athlete Cardiac Arrests, Serious Issues, 220 Dead, After COVID Shot

Over a 60X increase in pro sports adverse events since the vaccines rolled out Nobody can explain that. Some poo-poo these events saying that they happen all the time. True, they do. But not at this rate. Something happened in 2021 that changed things by a lot. Can you guess?

Athlete collapses/deaths following vaccination A former CIA operative fact checked the stories and found they were true. Why isn't the mainstream media doing these stories??

“My company has been studying these kinds of cases (see list below) in which young, fit athletes have cardiac-related death or collapse, often right on the field. There have been many more of these incidents in 2021. I assigned one of our CIA-trained analysts to conduct a random sampling to confirm these events below are real. His reply:

“I reviewed the list, and specifically conducted research on some instances listed, drawing on each month. All of the news stories I reviewed appeared authentic. I also found additional news stories on these cases reported by other outlets. That further corroborated many of the stories.”

367 Athlete Cardiac Arrests, Serious Issues, 209 Dead, After COVID Shot/By goodsciencing.com

Revelation 2021? High-profile soccer figures, players (“footballers”) forcing conversation after three more soccer players collapse in three days

I’m all for having a debate, but prefacing it with information from clearly biased sources outlining a one-sided argument which ignores the glaring lack of attention on the part of the media – coupled with clear efforts by the establishment to limit access to actual data – is hardly a template for open debate.

Give me ALL information; I’ll make up my own mind.

As for the wide swath of vulnerable idiots who are still compelled to believe everything that they see/hear without expending an iota of time to validate for themselves, good luck protecting them…

…BUT DO NOT PROFESS TO DO SO AT THE EXPENSE OF MY RIGHT TO ALL AVAILABLE FACTS FREE OF GOVERNMENT & MEDIA BIAS/MISINFORMATION/PROPAGANDA.

As stated, the question on Brietbart's bias in this respect is another matter.

You commented, "Now Breitbart is Leftist?" Well, yes...to those with open eyes. They certainly have a bias. This article is evidence to that statement. As for your motivation, it's clear to me that you're playing a game. Fine. Drinking & posting? A bit of a superiority complex? I'm not the only one wondering about your motivations.

I scanned your post history of articles since August: NOT A ONE about media bias, but most of the rest speak volumes to motive behind what is clearly projection.

It would be one thing to post a Conservative source on internet misinformation pursuant to truth & facts, but all you did is publish an admittedly reprinted article from a source which is lock, stock & barrel vested in seeing everyone jabbed, damned be the facts, choice or informed consent.

And then you doubled down on it, feigning 'no bias' while promoting wholly-biased media garbage with manipulating opinion.

Absolutely shameful.
