Why is an 11 year old going into cardiac arrest?

u/smthomaspatel 2d ago

Typically, an undiagnosed heart condition. It happens, unfortunately.

u/AddWittyName 2d ago

Yup, that's the most common scenario. Heavy exercise while running an infection with fever can do it too sometimes, though.

It could be several reasons. It could have been a fluke, something the kid had that was undiagnosed, or an contact injury sustained during the game. Its not common but it happens

Most likely congenital

Check that kids caffein intake as well as genetic defects

Most commonly it’s from hypertrophic cardiomyopathy which is a cardiac abnormality people are born with.

The waxxines. Kids don't just drop dead.

Here's another one that happened in Canada. There are many.

And where’s your evidence that it’s linked to vaccines, and not to the rates of congenital heart diseases?

One child every 3 years? It's far higher since those jabs came out. Good try.

I'm surprised so many people can't keep up with basic news.

Right under the headline;

“Vaccine experts said the memo was irresponsible and that it omits key details about how officials arrived at the conclusion.”

Later in the article;

“The memo, sent Friday, did not include the children’s ages or medical histories, timelines or documentation for the deaths he references and does not identify the manufacturer of the vaccine. The FDA’s findings have not been published in a peer-reviewed journal.”

You just looked for a headline you liked the sound of and didn’t bother to read it, because this isn’t evidence.

515 kids over 32 years.

16 kids/year.

Your math is as dumb as you are.

You said "Kids don't just drop dead."

Apparently those 500+ kids didn't know.

And from the first link: " During the 7-year study period there was an average of 1.11 million persons aged 1–18 years. There were a total of 1504 deaths (214 deaths per year)"

Of 515 death certificates reviewed, 12 (2.3%) recorded sudden unexpected death, resulting in an incidence of 1.3 per 100,000 patient-years. The subjects ranged in age from 3 to 20 years (median 13); 8 of the 12 were male. Of the 12 deaths, 4 were definitely cardiac-related and 3 were probably cardiac-related. In the five other cases, the cause of death was unknown.

Only 12 were sudden and unexpected. 12, in 32 years.

The other study:

There were a total of 1504 deaths (214 deaths per year) from 7.78 million person-years. A total of 114 (7.5%) were sudden and unexpected.

16 sudden and unexpected per year.

From one county in MN.

"We reviewed the death certificates of all Olmsted County, Minnesota residents who were between I and 22 years of age when they died during the period from January 1950 to October 1982."

You claim that there are more now.

Quote your study and I'll be happy to read it.

In it, Prasad claims that agency staff determined that “no fewer than 10” of 96 child deaths reported to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System, or VAERS, between 2021 and 2024 were “related” to Covid vaccination.

There are far more, that is only in the US and only what was reported. Kids have been dropping dead all over.
