“ If she had some pre-existing medical problem why would her sister be shocked that she passed at 31?”

A death of a family member is an emotional shock especially when it’s someone so young. People don’t always process it logically. Also pre-existing medical conditions don’t necessarily mean she was going to die, although it means her chances of dying were higher than the normal person. She had a weakened heart. Something may have triggered it ..like stress, excess physical activity..etc

I never got the jab, and got Covid early last year in Feb 2022. I wound up in the hospital, but that's also because I contracted pneumonia as well, and the hospital saw me as an early way to make $100,000 from the government. I'm convinced I had Covid before that, and I didn't feel sick at all other than losing all sense of taste, but getting pneumonia is what put me in the hospital for six days. The docs all chastised me for not getting the jab, but I didn't care. I knew it was bad and I'm glad I didn't cave to their pressure.

Now everyone that I worked with (I'm retired now) wishes they had followed my example and not gotten the jabs, but it's too late now.

Congratulations! I believe that you are the last of the Branch Covidians still here.

I got the jab (April 2021). Caught Covid last summer and had symptoms for about 10 hrs. Went to bed with severe flu like symptoms. When I woke up the next morning symptoms were gone. Tested positive that day. Felt a little weak for 3 or 4 days after that - but no symptoms. By the end of the week I was back to normal.

If one goes and looks at articles over the past two or so years, you will find that such a death is totally normal. It’s common for active and healthy athletes to die of a sudden heart attack during their middle-aged years. A simple internet search will reveal hundreds of stories showing the same. I suspect all that exercise, especially in our current times of global boiling, may be the culprit.

Public health officials and our society at large need to encourage people such as this to slow down and become more sedentary. At the age of 31, it is way past time this person took a more casual approach to life and let the youngsters of age 8 or 9 take over the more strenuous activities.

Recognized that “/s” did you? I’m gratified that you did so. I’ve posted such a comment at other sites and been agreed with most vehemently by some. One or two even expanded on the “global boiling” excuse for “sudden deaths” and are sure that such is definitely the culprit. I’ve also had comments along the lines of, “you are a true kool-aid drinker”, or “what an idiot!”.

and for deeds like this big pharma is rewarded. crime really does pay:

“The six biggest U.S. pharmaceutical companies reported $215 billion in domestic sales in 2022, but paid only about 3% of their global profit in taxes, far below the average corporate tax of 21%,

My husband has had kidney problems since he was 10 years old. He played tennis and soccer in HS. Fairly athletic. No heart issues all these years. Over 60 now.

Actually, you're right. Of the approximately 48 million people between the ages of 25-44, there were 14,513 deaths by heart attack, which translates to roughly 0.03%.

Not exactly a statistical 'zero'. It was a misstatement.

HOWEVER, that was in 2018 before the clot shot.

By the second year of the pandemic, the "observed" compared to "predicted" rates of heart attack death had increased by 29.9% for adults ages 25-44

Stress and excess exercise doesn’t cause heart attacks in 33 year old women.

How many of those had ‘long Covid’ or were hospitalized with severe symptoms , on the ventilator etc ? Keep in mind Covid was spreading like wildfire during that time. Also keep in mind vaccination was in its early stages with the elderly and those with pre existing conditions getting priority .

You may remember that a fraction of those who had caught severe Covid were developing clotting issues and the mechanism for it was not understood at the time. It was understood much later. This was before the vaccine was rolled out.
