re: Athletes dying from cardiac arrest

Damn, apparently my coffee isn’t working this morning. But the point still stands, with the increase in population and athletes then the number is bound to increase.

By multiple orders of magnitude??

Anytime I see a medical stat in the news, I go straight to SaltyDawg's X page to verify it.

He's definitely the world's most revered fornicator on the topic.

I’d say it’s actually gone down all things considered. So I doubt the clot shot had anything to do with what you have posted.[/quote]

Dumb take. Sports were huge in the mid to late1900's. People had nothing much else to do than be outside playing all kinds of sports and being more active. To think to compare 1 year span to 50 years and think sports simply blew up in 2020...lol..flunk statistics much?

The scariest part is the people who want to attack the guy trying to expose the issue.

As a free thinker, I just don’t understand fighting to hard to call everyone a conspiracy theorist. I appreciate anyone who can see thru lies.

---

Do "free thinkers" get to freely "think up" their own statistics, or should they "think freely" on statistics that are actually grounded in reality?

Because as we all sit here drinking our coffee, none of us have the faintest idea where these numbers came from.

Why shite on everything? I’m pretty old and never heard of athletes dying of heart attack except that one basketball player in the 90’s. Then it started happening daily a couple years ago.

There seems to be a pattern. You guys downvote me like I’m testifying before congress. I’m merely a normal guy who doesn’t want to see people die. I’m not going to do anything about it, I’m just watching trends.

The fact I’m open to all sides of any argument REALLY pisses off the people who want to call everyone opposing the media narrative a conspiracy theorist.

If someone posted a thread saying something like “Trump’s policies have directly resulted in the deaths of 3,560,257 people in the last eight years”, every reasonable, rational person would respond “source?”

If they don’t, they are a bullshite confirmation bias driven hack.

Same goes for this.

But just to give you the (unreasonable) hypothetical debate you’re looking for. Assuming the stats are 100% accurate, we have no idea whether the internal definitions are the same or whether definitions have shifted over the years such that the stats reflect different things. We have no idea whether there has been sufficient influx of older people engaging in activities tracked by these stats that would offset that increase. Once we know that information, we can then hade a debate whether Covid induced myocarditis, which was discussed long before the vaccine was a twinkle in anyone’s eye and was the stated reason why the Big 10 cancelled their football season in 2020, is the reason for the increase or whether it’s because the vaccines are poison that will kill us all.

But we can’t get to that last step until we actually know the stats we’re dealing with
