He was mostly alive.

Until he wasn't.

The deceased is one David Jenkins. The person in your post is the business owner for whom Mr. Jenkins worked.

-—————2018-——————

The sudden death of a young individual is a tragic and highly emotional event. Apart from the devastation within a family unit, the sudden nature of the event and the loss of decades of life have a lasting impact on friends, peers, and both the lay and medical communities. Deaths are usually attributable to hereditary or congenital abnormalities affecting the cardiac structure or the electrical system of the heart. Such cases galvanise discussion between physicians, health authorities and the lay community with an emphasis on improving understanding of the conditions predisposing to sudden cardiac death (SCD) and development of effective preventative strategies.

Much of the data on SCD in young individuals (aged under 35 years) is derived from studies of highly trained young competitive athletes. Deaths in this cohort, whilst rare, are often high profile and are afforded significant visibility. Identification of athletes at risk of SCD has become an important focus of the medical community on the premise that the majority of responsible diseases can be detected during life, and acceptable interventions such as lifestyle, pharmacological therapy, radiofrequency ablation of accessory pathways or implantation of a cardioverter defibrillator are available to reduce the risk of SCD.

They should bring back Richard Lewis and Jamie Lee Curtis for a new sitcom about two ER doctors dealing with lots of SADS patients, and call it “Anything But The COVID Vax”.

“Whatever the case, these sudden healthy adult deaths have been happening for hundreds of years (we just didn’t know about it) and we should look the other way.”

We have known about but they are rare. There was an uptick prior to 2020.

“A swimming coach is likely a regular swimmer. An excellent form of exercise and I doubt he was in anything other than perfect condition. So this makes complete sense that he dies at 31.”

At least they’ve given it a name...Sudden Adult Death Syndrome...SADS. First step toward discussion. Shows that interest in this largely unknown story is rising.
Of course...actuaries are having heart attacks over it! (Karma???)😵

Actually a bit worried. Wife and I had Pfizer...no boosters. Both kids in 30s as well plus boosted. Granddaughter (12) as well.

“At least they’ve given it a name...Sudden Adult Death Syndrome...SADS”

or Sudden Athlete Death Syndrome

or Sudden Adolescent Syndrome

or perhaps Sudden arrhythmic death syndrome

Stop worrying. Mostly genetic.

"sudden adult death syndrome"

Was this a thing, pre-covid vax?

If it was, I sure never heard about it, as I have over and over and over and over...since the covid vax.
