Swiss sprinter Sarah Atcho diagnosed with pericarditis after Pfizer booster shot

An Olympic sprinter says she is “upset” at being diagnosed with a rare heart condition after getting her Pfizer booster shot.

Swiss athlete Sarah Atcho, who competed in the four-by-100 metres relay at the 2016 Brazil Olympics, revealed in an Instagram post to her 22,000 followers this week that she had been diagnosed with pericarditis, or inflammation of the lining around the heart.

Pericarditis and more serious myocarditis, or inflammation of the heart muscle, are known but rare side effects of the Pfizer and Moderna mRNA Covid-19 vaccines.

The 26-year-old said she received her booster on December 22 “because I didn’t want to struggle with this when the season started”.

“I was told that it was safer to get Pfizer to avoid cardiac side effects,” she wrote.

"On December 27 I felt a tightness in the chest and started feeling dizzy while walking up the stairs. This happened a few more times until I decided to check with a cardiologist who diagnosed me with pericarditis (inflammation of the thin membrane surrounding the heart). I am now not allowed to get my heart rate up for a few weeks to allow my heart to rest and heal from the inflammation.”

Formerly rare, that is.

Pericarditis is very painful, let’s not forget. I can understand my own intermittent chest pain, but do the young and fit need to be burdened with this? #PfizerGeyzer

Exactly. It’s not longer a rare condition for those who’ve gotten the Jim Jones Jab.

Would be nice if the CDC were run by non biased scientists and not the commissars. Perhaps then the truth would be told.

Can someone recover from pericarditis? (Will the enlarged part of the heart revert back to its normal size?)

It used to be a rare heart conditions. It is becoming more common, post Covid “vaccine”.

You can recover, but once you’ve had it, you have to stay on guard, right? Your heart muscle is damaged by it. You can regain full function, but it’s like if you’ve had pneumonia: You’re not going to get back to your previous state of health. It puts you into a different health category, whether you are symptomatic or not.

She still sings the praises of the vaccines, however, if you look at her statement. /sigh

“I was told that it was safer to get Pfizer to avoid cardiac side effects,” she wrote.


Athletes (in former times they were called “jocks”) are not always among the more intelligent members of our species. And people make mistakes when faced with important decisions.
Maybe this is a new kind of reparations and/or equality/inclusion. Why should she be able to run faster than you or I? After all, don’t I have the right to be the fastest woman in the world?

But not exactly what first comes to mind when I think of Swiss women.

I had sudden onset of pericarditis 3 years ago. That was before COVID began. The symptoms are very similar to a heart attack so I had to go to the closest ER where it was quickly Dx with an ultrasound. I was admitted to the hospital and was there for 2 days as it was causing an irregular heartbeat. That soon went away.

The standard treatment is a steroid and a gout drug known about 200 years ago colchicine. My Dr. said why it occurs is not really known but likely from something like a virus. Sneaky viruses are always messing with us but only a few are nasty enough to cause discomfort or severe disease.

She didn’t want to struggle...

She was told...

Passivity from an Olympic athlete.

Deep State has done its work well.

Very active athleticism draws oxygen and blood through the heart-lung system at deeper and faster rates than normal daily activities, which speeds up delivery of things like “spike proteins” from either the virus or the MRna vaccines, and it is that excess of the spike proteins and the body’s inflammatory reaction to them that causes similar adverse results, whether the cause be from the virus or from the vaccines.
