I spent many a night at Coney Island Hospital. Good care there.

I think it was the heat. It was uncommonly hot today.

I’ve seen people who have suffered cardiac arrest while running a 10K - from only moderate coronary disease. When you are pushing the limits for your age there is a risk. That said, better to push and risk. Most who do wind up better off.

Until it is proven not to be the Vax, it was the Vax.

The race started at what? 7:00 a.m.? It was probably around 65 degrees at the start. By the time the race ended it was probably about 80 degrees. These are runners who have been training for this race. I do not think it was the heat that was the cause of the death of the one runner or the hospitalizations of the others. Especially given the numbers of sports participants who have suffered heart attacks or strokes from exertion after being vaxxed. Yes, a few heat exhaustion cases are normal for every race, especially those on the 4th of July, but this is not normal.

"Transient ischemic attack" aka, "ministroke" where the symptoms typically resolve in less than an hour.

Found this ...

... As CBS2’s Thalia Perez reports, police have identified the man as David Reichman, of Brooklyn, and are still investigating what caused him to collapse at the finish line. ..

Sounds like he/others couldn’t take the heat.

I wonder if there are often this many casualties/collapsers.

“Throughout the race, weather temperatures ranged from the low 60s to high 70s.”“

I’m over 60 and ran that distance last week with mid 80’s temps.
Have to be careful and stay hydrated .

Article had ridiculous wording with the “injuries” mentioned.

The heat index was 95-100°. Probably heat stroke and heat exhaustion resulted.

Medical abbreviation:

"A transient ischemic attack (TIA) is a temporary period of symptoms similar to those of a stroke. A TIA usually lasts only a few minutes and doesn't cause permanent damage."

What a crock of crapola.

Brought to you by the clot shot.

These posters never existed before the clot shot started offing athletes left and right.
