Alright here we go. Here’s a lot of very young athletes who have suffered a cardiac arrest. This is the kind of stuff that people are screaming about on social media as a sign that the vaccine is killing people.

Here it is:

March 2020: Unidentified student at the Cathedral City High School suffered a cardiac arrest. The student was saved through the efforts of two bystanders.

Oops wait a minute, that was before the vaccine, so it doesn’t count, forget that one.

2019: Football player in Marshall, Texas, suffers cardiac arrest and was saved by an athletic trainer.

Darn wait, no that was long before the vaccine. So forget that too.

2013: 16-year-old Downey High School football player Dodi Soza dies after a sudden cardiac event. He collapsed on the field even though he had not been hit.

So what is going on here??!!? What is going on is that all sorts of things happen all of the time. If you start paying attention to one kind of event, you suddenly see all of the instances that you ignored before, and it looks like an epidemic. It really helps if you get into a large group of people who WANT to believe this nutty event is suddenly on the increase and they keep retweeting each instance as if it’s never happened before.

Here’s the truth, from the Emily Orta incident in 2017:

According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, as many as 2,000 young adults under the age of 25 die of sudden cardiac arrest each year, though the actual number is not known.

That’s a lot. It happened before any vaccine and any pandemic. But some people only took notice after they needed to find a villain for their conspiracy theory.

Lucky for them, math and evidence never got in the way of a good, stupid-ass conspiracy theory.
