It wouldn’t have been scrutinized enough. The only way to find out his liver was malformed pre-failure was to cut him open and look at it. He’d had no abdominal surgeries, so nobody ever looked at it.

Professional athletes just mostly go through physicals. Very thorough physicals. But nobody cuts them open to examine their heart for weak spots. Professional athletes collapse with undiagnosed heart problems. It happens.

I don’t think there’s been an increase. There’s been an increase in REPORTING, partly because the internet exists now and all news is global. Prior to the 2000s would you have ever heard anything about Uruguayan soccer player? Of course not. Then of course you add all the people obsessed with the vaccines and blaming them for everything, so these little stories get moved around more. But that doesn’t mean it’s happening more. You’re just getting a lot of confirmation bias.

You will not convince this crowd. They are not seeking information. They are seeking affirmation. That’s why they cling to news stories like this and add their hashtags.. until the real cause is revealed at a later date at which point they lose interest and wander off to the next news story looking for affirmation.

“Twenty years ago, this would have been a sentence on page 10. And for sure never in newspapers in the states about a random death in Brazil. The internet made this a thing.

20 years ago this was a rare incident. Now there are multiple every year.

The editors know there is a market for clicks for these type of stories (read the comments section for who are reading these stories). 20 years ago there wasn’t. That’s why they sometimes hold off from publishing the real cause of death even when they have it and milk it for all the clicks they can get.

There seems to be some skepticism on to what degree the mRNA covid shots and boosters were safe and effective as advertised.

There are people like Michael Yeadon, formerally of Pfizer, Dr Carrie Madaj, Simone Gold of Americas Frontline Doctors, RFK Jr’s Childrens Health Defense organization, Dr. Robert Malone, Dr. Judy Mikovitz, Dr. Peter McCullough, Dr. Sherri Tenpenny(to name a few) who have a point of view based on their medical training and professional opinion.

Or there is Dr. Fauci, Dr. Deborah Birx, Rochelle Walinsky, Bill Gates, FDA, CDC, Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and Claus Schwab (to name a few), who have a somewhat different take based on their own medical training and professional opinion.

Close inspection to all these peoples background and qualifications, and how they arrived at their own opinion would be a good thing for everyone who is unsure about this ongoing issue.

Some ‘boots on the ground’ investigation would also be helpful - talk to nurses, doctors, hospital workers, nursing home workers - even funeral home directors. X (formerly twitter) is chock full of testimonies of people’s experience with the mRNA covid shots.

Some serious research should clear things up.

True, but lets see the stats on athletes dropping dead from 30 years ago to today.
*************
Athletes have been known to take performance enhancing things that can harm them. And people with congenital heart problems don’t react well to strenuous exercise.

Bull. In fact, it was more prevalent in our past. Today we have medicines that take care of a lot of this.

There has been an increase in athletes dropping on the field as documented in the videos.

...CT scans, MRIs, etc.

Won’t find that kind of stuff, they can’t see tissue weakness, they can’t see degenerative symptoms, heck they can’t even see CTE. Sure some “videos” say there’s been an increase. But are the videos accurate. People can say anything. Meanwhile in reality, not really the case.
