People with this blood type are 16% more likely to have a stroke before the age 60
New York Post ^ | March 8, 2025 | McKenzie Beard

Posted on 03/11/2025 5:44:07 PM PDT by nickcarraway

Researchers at the University of Maryland (UMD) found that people with type A blood are more likely to experience an early-onset ischemic stroke — caused by a blockage of blood flow to the brain — while those with blood type O have a lower risk.

“The number of people with early strokes is rising,” said Dr. Steven J. Kittner, co-principal investigator of the study and neurologist with the UMD Medical Center. “These people are more likely to die from the life-threatening event, and survivors potentially face decades with disability. Despite this, there is little research on the causes of early strokes.”

In a 2022 analysis, Kittner and his colleagues sifted through data from 48 genetic studies, involving 17,000 stroke patients and nearly 600,000 healthy individuals who had never suffered a stroke. All participants were between 18 and 59 years old. After reviewing their genetic profiles, researchers discovered a potential link between early strokes and the part of the chromosome that contains the gene determining whether your blood type is A, AB, B or O.

“The number of people with early strokes is rising,” ...


I wonder if these horrid jabs cause more adverse effects with Type A blood folks?

Did you have the jab(s)?

I understand if you don’t care to answer.

A- and I’m the exception. My arteries are like teflon - no calcium. I have .001 chance of dying from arterial disease. Doctors say my arteries look like I’m half my age.

I know this person is probably of the Covid religion, but I suspect if asked they would claim they were masked to protect themselves from retaliation.

WAPO and NYT and others have long been fabricating stories which they attribute to 'persons in a position to know' or 'officials familiar with the matter.'

However, now that President Trump is in office, lefty publications more often specify "name withheld to protect the employee from retaliation." The MSM is projecting the lie that it's necessary for 'bold journalists' to put themselves in the line of fire in order to hold that thin ink line between the President and the employees who 'risk it all' to say something President Trump doesn't like.

Yes!! Good for you!

And, it may just help my hypothesis regarding type A blood and jabs.

Thx for the reply.

Mr. Blueway is 86 years old, A+ blood, and has had 3 Phizer Covid vaccine shots.
I am 82, B neg, same amount of Covid shots.
He had no side effects.
I inexplicably lost the hearing in one of my ears soon after taking the Covid vaccines.
Hubby blames the vaccines.

It is wild that all research is now tainted by the covid injection. And upon reflection all medical science is tainted by western medicine and has been for a long time.

A+ here with a long history of strokes in my bloodlines. At 75, doctor diagnosed me with sleep apnea 15 years ago and said using a machine would help avoid strokes. I use it faithfully, and am very happy I have not yet gone the way of so many previous generations.

I’m AB negative. Rarest of all blood types.

Friend who volunteered at the blood bank said I should never give blood, as they’d bleed me dry. It has a type of serum and plasma needed to save many lives.

I’ve heard O’ positive, which I am, being the most common blood type is the type in the biggest demand and blood banks are constantly running short of it because most people need it when they need blood. The more rare blood types are stockpiled and are usually on hand for people who need those types. O positive is harder to keep in stock. Blood banks are always in need of every type, but they are very glad when people donate O positive as it is used by many many more people.
