Remember when some said 30 percent of Covid infected athletes would get heart disease?

Turns out it is 0.6 percent

“Using de-identified data from the six leagues, the peer-reviewed study published today found very few cases of inflammatory heart disease and that a return to professional sports following COVID-19 infection can be safely achieved using this return to play screening program. In this study of 789 COVID-19 positive athletes from across our leagues, evidence of inflammatory heart disease was identified in 0.6% of athletes. The study also found no adverse cardiac events occurring in the athletes who underwent cardiac screening and subsequently resumed professional sport participation.”

There's a higher proportion of heart disease in the average American male than among those athletes.

Like so many other Covid related experts....they were apparently talking out of their arse to encourage more shutdowns and economic sanctions during an election year.

0.6% of 789 tested = 5 cases for those of you in the Natural State.

Media doesn't challenge people that agree with them, especially when they are pulling a Chicken Little to control public opinion and policy.

Al Gore said that Miami and New Orleans would be underwater by 2012. They gave him a fricking Nobel prize.

I bet this info will be brought to Pop's attention by ESPN or the local San Antonio press...

Do we know if any of the 0.6% who did have heart disease may have had it before they got Covid?

If you did extensive cardiac workup on any sick patient from anything you could find evidence of some low level heart damage in some of them.

Covid has completely warped people’s minds in regards to health
