The new report debunks widespread misinformation that the mRNA shots were connected to sudden cardiac death in young athletes.
There is no evidence that mRNA Covid vaccines cause fatal cardiac arrest or other deadly heart problems in teens and young adults, a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report published Thursday shows.
Ever since the vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna were authorized in late 2020, anti-vaccination groups in the U.S. have blamed the shots for fatal heart problems in young athletes.
One of the most notorious examples of vaccine misinformation involves Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin, 26, who in 2023 collapsed on “Monday Night Football” as a result of cardiac arrest. Hamlin was resuscitated on the field and eventually recovered. He returned to play for the Bills last season.
NGL, anti-vaxxers had a moment there… but now it’s gone and they are once again relegated to stupid ass conspiracy theorists.
Say hi to the flat earthers, healing crystal grifters and other child abusers for me… in fact, no, don’t do that, just gtfo.
Of course that’s what they want you to believe!!!
