How many people have died from Omicron (argument with my cardiologist)

Anyone know? My cardiologist said tons of people were dying from omicron. I told him that was demonstrably false. I asked him to name 3 people. He couldn’t answer. I ended up telling him to get effed after he denied that vaccines had caused cardiac problems for some people, my boss included who got myocarditis. I have a rapid heart rate that hangs over 100 90% of the day, so I have some concerns about getting a booster that my hospital employer is forcing (the booster that doesn’t seem to work against omicron)
Am I wrong about all this?
Anyway, I searched out for a new cardiologist that wasn’t under the thumb of a hospital system, which are under the thumb of government. Appointment Monday. Hospitals are taking over practices everywhere so they all have to fall in line
Seriously, wtf is going on. Why is he saying things like this?
Do I have a legitimate concern here with my heart rate? What do doctors here think?

Sounds like you know more than him. Why were you there?

The vaccines are safe and effective.
How dare you question your cardiologist!
Just take the jab, again and again and again and see what happens.

You don't think people are dying from omicron?

You should have told him that he's an idiot and should go back to school.

To see if it’s safe to take a booster with my currently undiagnosed heart issue. I didn’t expect to get a pack of lies

You went to see a cardiologist and then argued with him about heart health? Bold move.

Wow, that's just straight up delusion. Even the CDC and MSM idiots recognize the myocarditis and pericarditis. Respect for doctors should be at an all time low.

1. Admittedly, “a ton” is vague and there’s probably some nuance and context that matters.
But.
2. “Name people you personally know” isn’t a valid argument.
3. And the man is smarter than you. Technically, Argument from Authority, but the odds are you are wrong.
Edit: Also,
Danny Altmann, a professor of immunology at Imperial College London (here), told Reuters that there are “very large, peer-reviewed studies” which show “the overwhelming statistical case is that myocarditis, pericarditis, blood clots, strokes or heart attacks and death is massively skewed to those who are unvaccinated and become infected.”

He’s likely still repaying the government school loans and has to toe the company line or else.

The only people dying of omicron are people with preexisting comorbidities like heart disease or irregular heart rates.

He initially didn’t believe me that my HR was a real problem until it was proven with a monitor. He wasn’t taking it seriously.
I want the down voters to argue the merits of omicron deaths and the merits of people having cardiac problems in somewhat rare cases. I have legitimate concerns and I was met with some palpable lies.

Liberals want to kick unvaxxed out of the hospitals because hospitals are too crowded. So, then who are all those people left in the hospital left when all the unvaxxed are out, and why do they need to be at the hospital with covid complications???

Lol hope the op can find another cardiologist then

No one has died of COVID since the election. Prior to that biking in traffic was a COVID death.

I majored in computer science and minored in physics. I’m not your regular idiot. I spend most of my time researching things I’m curious about
