Did KJ Hamler Get Pericarditis From COVID-19 Vaccine?!

Was Broncos wide receiver KJ Hamler benched after developing pericarditis caused by the COVID-19 vaccine?!

Take a look at the viral claims, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : KJ Hamler Developed Pericarditis From COVID-19 Vaccine!

Right after news broke that KJ Hamler was benched after a pericarditis diagnosis, some people immediately claimed or suggested that the Denver Broncos wide receiver developed pericarditis from the COVID-19 vaccine doses he received!

Alex Berenson : A Covid vaccine success story in three acts

Get jabbed
Get Covid
Get pericarditis

Safe AND effective

Hope you recover quickly, @Kj_hamler

DC Draino : There are few things more evil than forcing an NFL player to be vaccinated against his will and then cutting him from the team when he develops deadly heart problems from the side effects

I hope KJ Hamler sues the NFL and Denver Broncos into bankruptcy

Some young people survive vaccine injury – 13 cases that did!

Brandon Taylor Moore : #Bronco’s KJ Hamler announces that he has been diagnosed with #pericarditis – which is medical speak for “I took the vaccine & it 🤬’d up my heart ❤️.”

No Evidence KJ Hamler Developed Pericarditis From COVID-19 Vaccine!

It’s now tradition for anti-vaccination activists to blame all athlete deaths or illnesses on the COVID-19 vaccine.

Here are the reasons why this is yet another example of FAKE NEWS created and propagated by anti-vaccination activists…

Fact #1 : KJ Hamler Has Mild Pericarditis

KJ Hamler (born Kahlee Jacoby Hamler on July 8, 1999) is a wide receiver for the Denver Broncos who made his NFL debut in the 2020 season.

On Monday, 31 July 2023, KJ Hamler announced that he was diagnosed with mild pericarditis, after suffering some chest pains while working out.

He pointed out that he feels great physically, but has to take a break to treat the pericarditis. He is reportedly expected to miss weeks, not months, due to this pericarditis diagnosis.

After feeling some chest pains while working out on the break before camp started, I got everything checked out and was diagnosed with mild heart irritation, called pericarditis. I’ve got a great treatment plan with medicine and am taking a quick break to get this all taken care of so I can get back to doing what I love.

I will be back on the field—better and stronger than ever—as soon as possible this season! I feel great physically and this is very frustrating for me to deal with. I know most of you have heard or know of my story and these past few years what I’ve been going through on and off the field.

I’m so grateful for my teammates & coaches. Appreciate the support from the Broncos Country and encouragement I have been receiving. This is something to bring awareness to anybody. So anyone with chest pains please get checked out by your doctor!

Fact #2 : Broncos Waived KJ Hamler With NFI

In a sign that KJ Hamler’s pericarditis is mild and will resolve quickly, the Denver Broncos are reportedly waiving him on a non-football illness (NFI) designation.

This is a procedural move which allows KJ Hamler to return in the 2023 season. If they placed him on reserve, or the non-football injury list instead, he could end up not playing for the entire season.

KJ Hamler had only just recovered from surgery to treat a torn pectoral muscle he sustained in March while training on his own in the offseason.

Fact #3 : Pericarditis Is Most Commonly Caused By Infections

Pericarditis is the inflammation of the pericardium – the fibrous sac covering the heart. Most people only know it as a known but rare side effect of mRNA COVID-19 vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna.

What you may not know is that pericarditis is most commonly caused by viral infections, followed by bacterial infections (commonly tuberculosis), heart attack, autoimmune diseases, and chest trauma.

And yes – COVID-19 infections can cause pericarditis, and acute pericarditis is a major clinical manifestation of long COVID syndrome.

Fact #4 : Pericarditis Existed Long Before COVID-19 Vaccines

In addition – people have suffered from pericarditis long before COVID-19 vaccines were invented. On average, about 40 per 100,000 people develop pericarditis every year.

An August 2022 study showed that an average of 125,209 patients every year were diagnosed with pericarditis in the United States from 2007 to 2016. Males between the ages of 20 and 50 – like KJ Hamler – are most commonly affected.

Fact #5 : KJ Hamler Was Fully-Vaccinated Two Years Ago!

It is interesting to note that when people share screenshots showing that KJ Hamler was fully-vaccinated, they crop out the date. And it’s easy to see why.

KJ Hamler was fully-vaccinated against COVID-19, receiving his second dose in the last week of July 2021 – TWO YEARS ago!

Fact #6 : Vaccine Side Effects Appear Within Hours / Days

KJ Hamler cannot possibly have suffered from a vaccine side effect, because they appear within hours or days, not months later.

Mild side effects like injection site pain, fever, muscle ache, headache, lethargy develop within minutes to hours of the vaccination.

Anaphylaxis develops within minutes, while other severe adverse reactions like myocarditis and VITT develop within days or weeks.

The spike proteins produced by the COVID-19 vaccines also do not stick around for months. If these spike proteins are permanent (as antivaxxers claim), we would have lifelong immunity.

Your own immune system will identify the spike proteins as foreign, and destroy them within a matter of days, although some may last for up to a few weeks. This is part of how vaccines teach your immune system to identify the enemy and destroy it.

Fact #7 : KJ Hamler Got Infected With COVID-19

KJ Hamler tested positive for COVID-19 on Monday, August 3, 2021. That was just after he received his second dose of the COVID-19 vaccine.

While many anti-vaccination activists are saying that this proves that the vaccine isn’t effective, the truth is you need to wait about 14 days for your body to develop the necessary antibodies after getting the COVID-19 vaccine.

In fact, KJ Hamler pointed out to reporters back in August 2021 that he was not yet 14 days clear of the second shot.

I should also point out that the COVID-19 vaccines are not designed to block infections. They were designed to prevent you from developing severe COVID-19, or dying from COVID-19.

Fact #8 : Claims Of COVID-19 Vaccine Injuries Often Proven False

Most claims of sudden deaths / injuries due to the COVID-19 vaccine have been proven false. Here is the latest dozen of other false sudden death claims!

Will these anti-vaccination activists apologise for lying to you? Nope! They will just move on to the next death or tragedy…

Is Byron Jones Retiring From Vaccine Injuries?!

Leave a reply

Is Miami Dolphins football player Byron Jones retiring after COVID-19 vaccine injuries left him unable to run or jump?!

Take a look at the viral claims, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Byron Jones Is Retiring From Vaccine Injuries!

People are claiming that Byron Jones is retiring from the NFL and his Miami Dolphins team, after COVID-19 vaccine injuries left him unable to run or jump!

Byron Jones gives a veiled warning against the COVID vaccines.

“DO NOT take the injections they give you,” Jones wrote. #SafeAndEffective

Byron Jones warns about the Biden Jab!

Byron Jones, the 30-year-old Dolphins cornerback is apparently saying goodbye to the NFL – with clear words… 💉🙄

Truth : Byron Jones Is Not Retiring From Vaccine Injuries!

It’s now tradition for anti-vaccination activists to immediately blame all athlete deaths or illnesses on the COVID-19 vaccine.

This is yet another example of FAKE NEWS created and propagated by anti-vaccination activists, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : Byron Jones Was Warning Other NFL Players

Claims that Miami Dolphins football player Byron Jones is retiring after suffering vaccine injuries is based on a tweet he posted on Saturday, February 25, 2023.

Much has changed in 8 years. Today I can’t run or jump because of my injuries sustained playing this game.

DO NOT take the pills they give you. DO NOT take the injections they give you.

If you absolutely must, consult an outside doctor to learn the long-term implications.

His tweet was not targeted at the public, but at other NFL players, especially the draft class of 2023, because he followed up with this tweet:

It was an honor and privilege to play in the NFL but it came at a regrettable cost I did not foresee. In my opinion, no amount of professional success or financial gain is worth avoidable chronic pain and disabilities.

Godspeed to the draft class of 2023.

Fact #2 : Byron Jones Was Not Injured By COVID-19 Vaccine

Byron Jones (born Byron Philip Jones on September 26, 1992) was first drafted by the Dallas Cowboys in 2015, and played five seasons with them.

When he signed with the Miami Dolphins on March 21, 2020, he was the highest-paid cornerback in the NFL at that time.

By March 2022, he had to undergo surgery on his left Achilles, with a recovery timeline of several months. However, he didn’t heal well enough, and played no part in the Dolphins’ regular season.

His position coach Sam Madison questioned his ability to pull through his injury in January 2023:

He could have… helped. Injuries come up. Some people fight through them. Some don’t.

Fact #3 : Byron Jones Is Not Retiring

While Byron Jones seemed to imply that he was retiring or had retired from the NFL, he never actually said so. A source later confirmed with ESPN that Byron Jones was not retiring.

Fact #4 : Byron Jones Never Mentioned Any Vaccine Injury

Byron Jones appears to be warning his fellow NFL players against taking the pills or injections given by their team doctors, not COVID-19 vaccinations.

He also did not mention that he suffered any COVID-19 vaccine injury, or attributed his inability to run or jump to the COVID-19 vaccines.

Fact #5 : Claims Of Athletes Injured By COVID-19 Vaccine Proven False

So far, claims of athlete deaths / injuries due to the COVID-19 vaccine have been proven false at every instance. Here is the latest dozen cases I fact checked recently.

Will these anti-vaccination activists apologise for lying to you? Nope! They will just move on to the next athlete tragedy…

Did Chris ‘Swaggy’ Baker Get Stroke From Vaccine?!

Leave a reply

Did former NFL defensive tackle Chris ‘Swaggy’ Baker suffer from a stroke caused by the COVID-19 vaccine?!

Take a look at the viral claims, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Chris ‘Swaggy’ Baker Suffered Stroke From COVID-19 Vaccine!

Right after Chris ‘Swaggy’ Baker announced that he just suffered from a stroke, anti-vaccination activists immediately claimed that the 25 year-old former NFL defensive tackle was a victim of the COVID-19 vaccine!

No Evidence Chris ‘Swaggy’ Baker Suffered Stroke From COVID-19 Vaccine!

It’s now a tradition for anti-vaccination activists to immediately blame all athlete deaths or illnesses on the COVID-19 vaccine.

This is yet another example of FAKE NEWS created and propagated by anti-vaccination activists, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : Chris Baker Announced He Suffered A Stroke

Chris Baker (born Christopher Isaiah Baker on October 8, 1987) nicknamed ‘Swaggy’ is a former American football defensive tackle who played nine seasons in the National Football League (NFL).

On Tuesday, 24 January, 2023, Baker announced on an Instagram story that he suffered a stroke, and almost died two days earlier.

Tell your loved ones you love ’em, my life almost ended 2 days ago. I can’t believe I had a stroke but God not done with me yet.

He also shared a video from a Hartford, Connecticut hospital room, showing him sitting up and stalking to a nurse, while hooked up on an IV drip.

Fact #2 : Cause Of Chris Baker’s Stroke Is Still Unknown

According to TMZ Sports, his mother said that Chris Baker suffered the “serious” stroke on Friday, January 20, 2023, and required emergency surgery.

However, his doctors have said that he was responding as if it was a “minor” stroke, and he is expected to make a full recovery.

Currently, the cause of his stroke has not been revealed, and Chris Baker himself never blamed the vaccine for it.

There is simply no evidence that Chris Baker suffered his stroke because of the COVID-19 vaccine.

Fact #3 : Chris Baker Was Likely Not Vaccinated Against COVID-19

It is likely that Chris ‘Swaggy’ Baker was never vaccinated against COVID-19, even though he never publicly said so.

For one thing, the COVID-19 vaccine is not mandatory in the United States or the NFL, at least for the coaches and players. In any case, it wouldn’t have mattered for Swaggy, because he last played for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in February 2018.

More importantly, Chris Baker publicly came out against the COVID-19 vaccines, posting on January 3, 2022 that “vaccine don’t even work”.

I wish you would stop shaming unvaccinated people as if it’s a problem we all have choices.

That vaccine don’t even work. Vaccinated or unvaccinated you still can catch Covid and have to quarantine 5 days now 🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️

He continued on January 4, 2022, claiming that “the vaccine doesn’t work” and “the vaccine is a waste of time“.

I’m sure you heard this on the news which lies all day every day🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️ my body my choice and IMO the vaccine doesn’t work it’s just an agenda being pushed on people.

we’ll just have to agree to disagree about the vaccination the research I’ve done has shown the vaccine is a waste of time but that’s my opinion 🤷🏾‍♂️

Unless Swaggy himself confirms that he was vaccinated against COVID-19 in spite of his prior comments, it would be wrong to blame his stroke on the COVID-19 vaccine.

Fact #4 : Strokes Can Happen In Young People

While people claim that it is impossible or rare for young people to suffer from strokes, that’s not true.

According to a February 2020 study published in the journal Stroke, about 10% to 15% of strokes occur in adults under 50, and the rate is increasing among young and middle-aged people.

With almost 800,000 people in the United States suffering from a stroke every single year, about 80,000 to 120,000 strokes occur in adults under 50.

In young people, the risk of strokes is increased by these factors:

patent foramen ovale (PFO) : about 1 in 4 people have this small hole between the wall dividing the right and left atrium of the heart. This was what caused Kris Letang’s stroke.
arterial dissection : up to 25% of strokes in people under 45 are caused by a dissecting blood vessel in the neck that occurs spontaneously, but can also be caused by sports-related trauma, or whiplash.
blood clotting disorders like sickle cell disease, which affects 1 in every 365 African Americans.
substance abuse : drugs like cocaine can contribute to strokes by constricting blood vessels while increasing the clumping of blood cells.

While we do not yet know what caused Chris Baker’s stroke, the takeaway is this – it is not rare for young adults to suffer from a stroke.

Fact #5 : Claims Of Athletes Injured By COVID-19 Vaccine Proven False

This is yet another example of anti-vaccination activists abusing athlete deaths / injuries to create and propagate FAKE NEWS about the safety and efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines.

So far, claims of athlete deaths / injuries due to the COVID-19 vaccine have been proven false at every instance.

Will these anti-vaccination activists apologise for lying to you? Nope! They will just move on to the next athlete tragedy…

Did Jessie Lemonier Die Suddenly Of Vaccine SADS?!

Leave a reply

Did former NFL linebacker Jessie Lemonier die suddenly from vaccine SADS?!

Take a look at the viral claims, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Jessie Lemonier Died Suddenly From Vaccine SADS!

Right after news broke that Jessie Lemonier died suddenly, anti-vaccination activists immediately claimed that the 25 year-old former NFL linebacker was a victim of COVID-19 vaccine sudden adult death syndrome (SADS)!

Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH : Need brand, dose 1, 2, 3, autopsy. “Until proven otherwise.” #courageousdiscourse @nfl @nflnetwork @ESPNNFL @NFLonFOX @EmeraldRobinson @AbsoluteWithE @realstewpeters @chrisagillespie @SteveDeaceShow @RMConservative @larryelder

Dr. Robert Malone (Inventor of mRNA Vaccine Tech) Warned of Risks and said within 2 to 3 years, people will be dropping dead without reason. 3 years later N its happening.
IF YOU GOT VAXED U SHOULD BE SCARED AND ANGRY. #vaccinegenocide #CovidVaccine

No Evidence Jessie Lemonier Died From Vaccine SADS!

It’s now a tradition for anti-vaccination activists to immediately blame all athlete deaths or illnesses on the COVID-19 vaccine.

This is yet another example of FAKE NEWS created and propagated by anti-vaccination activists, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : Jessie Lemonier’s Cause of Death Is Still Unknown

Jessie Lemonier (born Jessie Nathaniel Lemonier on January 31, 1997) was a former American football outside linebacker who played for the Los Angeles Chargers and the Detroit Lions.

On Thursday morning, 26 January, 2023, the Detroit Lions announced his death:

We are shocked and saddened to learn of the passing of former Detroit Lion Jessie Lemonier.

Jessie was a model teammate and wonderful young man who is gone far too soon. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends during this difficult time.

His agent, Drew Smith, confirmed his death, and said that Jessie Lemonier had been expecting a child with his girlfriend. He would have turned 26 on Tuesday.

Jessie Lemonier’s official cause of death has not been revealed by his former team, his agent or his family. Neither did they reveal the circumstances behind his death. Therefore, it would be wrong for anyone to claim that Jessie Lemonier died from vaccine SADS.

Jessie Lemonier could have died in an accident, from a fall, a pre-existing health condition, or suicide. Until his family reveals more details, there is simply no way for us to know, for certain, how he died and what he died from.

Fact #2 : Breiden Fehoko Suggested Jessie Lemonier Committed Suicide

His friend and former teammate at the Los Angeles Chargers, Breiden Fehoko, suggested that Jessie Lemonier committed suicide, in his tribute post:

My brother man. 💔💔 We came in to the league together had to battle through everything rookie year to get where we are. You were always filled with life bro. I LOVE YOU BRO! Please check up on your people. PLEASE

Calling for people to “check up” family and friends is often used as a code by people whose friends and loved ones have taken their own lives. For example, with Sam Westmoreland, Victoria Lee, Adam Exton, and Adrian Dingle.

However, I would like to point out that this does not confirm that Jessie Lemonier committed suicide. Breiden Fehoko did not directly claim that he did.

Therefore, we should all wait for an official cause of death, whether revealed by his family or an autopsy report, before claiming that Jessie Lemonier died from this or that cause.

Fact #3 : Unknown If Jessie Lemonier Was Vaccinated Against COVID-19

It is unknown if Jessie Lemonier was vaccinated against COVID-19, as he has never publicly stated his vaccination status, or his preference for or against the vaccines.

The COVID-19 vaccine is not mandatory in the United States or the NFL, at least for the coaches and players.

While the NFL strongly encouraged COVID-19 vaccinations, it only requires employees in contact with players to be fully-vaccinated. Surprisingly, coaches and players were not subject to any vaccine mandate, and all COVID-19 protocols were dropped in March 2022.

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, for example, was notorious for refusing to get vaccinated against COVID-19.

Until and unless we know his COVID-19 vaccination status, it would be wrong for anyone to claim that he suffered any kind of vaccine injury.

Fact #4 : Vaccine Side Effects Appear Within Hours / Days

Even if Jessie Lemonier was fully-vaccinated against COVID-19, it is impossible for the COVID-19 vaccine to cause his “collapse” as he would have received his doses many months ago!

He cannot possibly be suffering from a vaccine side effect, because they appear within hours or days, not months later.

Mild side effects like injection site pain, fever, muscle ache, headache, lethargy develop within minutes to hours of the vaccination.

Anaphylaxis develops within minutes, while other severe adverse reactions like myocarditis and VITT develop within days.

The spike proteins produced by the COVID-19 vaccines also do not stick around for months. If these spike proteins are permanent (as antivaxxers claim), we would have lifelong immunity.

Fact #5 : Claims Of Athletes Injured By COVID-19 Vaccine Proven False

This is yet another example of anti-vaccination activists abusing athlete deaths / injuries to create and propagate FAKE NEWS about the safety and efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines.

So far, claims of athlete deaths / injuries due to the COVID-19 vaccine have been proven false at every instance.

NFL Star Damar Hamlin Can Now Breathe + Talk!

Leave a reply

NFL star Damar Hamlin continues to show remarkable improvement, and is now able to breathe and speak on his own!

Damar Hamlin Can Now Breathe + Talk!

Damar Hamlin’s condition is rapidly improving at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center (UCMC), where he’s being treated after suddenly collapsing on the field from a cardiac arrest.

Overnight, his breathing tube was removed, and he was able to. talk to his family and care team. They also confirmed that his neurological function remained intact.

However, doctors at UCMC said that he has shown “remarkable improvement over the past 24 hours“, and appears to be “neurologically intact“.

Per the physicians at UCMC, Damar’s breathing tube was removed overnight. He continues to progress remarkably in his recovery.

His neurologic function remains intact and he has been able to talk to his family and care team.

In fact, he was able to join a FaceTime call with his team, to talk to his fellow players and coaches, saying “Love you boys“.

Hamlin suffered his cardiac arrest on January 2, after tackling Tee Higgins from the Cincinnati Bengals and apparently getting hit in the chest.

Damar Hamlin got up after that tackle but suddenly collapsed from a cardiac arrest that many people have blamed on the COVID-19 vaccines, but is possibly the result of a rare commotio cordis.

Sudden cardiac arrests (without preceding blunt force trauma) are also rather common in young athletes – about 2,000 young athletes in the United States die from it every year.

Damar Hamlin Recovering Rapidly From Cardiac Arrest

This rapid development came after he woke up and wrote and asked the doctors who won the game! The doctor responded, “Damar, you won – you won the game of life“.

At that time, Damar Hamlin could not yet breathe on his own, but was conscious and able to communicate by writing, which showed that he was “neurologically intact”.

According to a statement by the Buffalo Bills, the doctors say that “his lungs continue to heal“, and “he is making steady progress“.

Per the physicians caring for Damar Hamlin at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center, Damar has shown remarkable improvement over the past 24 hours. While still critically ill, he has demonstrated that he appears to be neurologically intact. His lungs continue to heal and he is making steady progress.

We are grateful for the love and support we have received.

The news was much welcomed by his teammates, and brought a lot of smiles at One Bills Drive.

New Website For Damar Hamlin Donations

Damar Hamlin’s close friend and marketing rep, Jordon Rooney, also announced a new website for the Chasing M’s Foundation that Hamlin founded many years earlier – ChasingMsFoundation.com.

He also shared that Chasing M’s Foundation is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organisation that is dedicated to “supporting the aspirations of youth and community members through sports, education, and enrichment opportunities“.

The executive director, Mario Hamlin, ask that people who wish to donate to the foundation, please do so through the new website. He also asked that people consider donating to the University of Cincinnati Medical Center trauma center, or buy your trauma center team and first responders lunch.

The Hamlin family appears to be making these moves to curb the donation scams that have mushroomed over public support for Damar Hamlin.

So please do NOT donate to any other Damar Hamlin initiatives, cash app requests, or GoFundMe pages. The only legitimate avenues for donations towards Damar Hamlin are:

The Chasing M’s Foundation website
University of Cincinnati Trauma Center

Alternatively, you can show your appreciation for first responders and trauma teams in your area, by buying them lunch.

Did Damar Hamlin Get Vaccine Before His Collapse?!

Leave a reply

Did Damar Hamlin receive a COVID-19 vaccine booster dose just 7 days before his sudden collapse on the field?!

Take a look at the viral claim, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Damar Hamlin Received Vaccine 7 Days Before Collapse!

People are sharing a screenshot of a tweet by Dr. Benjamin Eidelman, who claimed that he gave Damar Hamlin a COVID-19 vaccine booster dose 7 days before his sudden collapse on the field.

Dr. Eidelman also claimed that Damar Hamlin passed “all screenings with flying colors”, and that he was in contact with the medical staff treating Hamlin to help them.

I recently administered Damar Hamlin’s Covid booster on 12/26, and as a medical professional, I can assure the public he passed all screenings with flying colors. I am in contact with the UCMC staff and will provide any assistance to them.

Truth : Damar Hamlin Did Not Get Booster Dose 7 Days Before Collapse!

It’s now a tradition for anti-vaccination activists to immediately blame all athlete deaths or illnesses on the COVID-19 vaccine.

This is yet another example of FAKE NEWS created and propagated by anti-vaccination activists, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : Damar Hamlin Collapsed After Getting Hit

On Monday, January 2, 2023, the Buffalo Bills were playing against the Cincinnati Bengals, when Damar Hamlin was hit in the chest while trying to tackle Bengals receiver Tee Higgins. He stood up briefly before suddenly collapsing.

Medical personnel rushed to his aid, gave him CPR and successfully resuscitated him with an automated external defibrillator (AED). After working on him for about 16 minutes, they transported him to the University of Cincinnati Medical Center.

There, Hamlin apparently suffered another cardiac arrest, and had to be resuscitated again. He later gained consciousness but could not breathe on his own. So he was sedated and put on a ventilator.

Because Damar Hamlin collapsed roughly six seconds after getting hit in his chest, he possibly suffered a rare cardiac event called Commotio cordis, where the blunt force trauma triggers a ventricular fibrillation, leading to a cardiac arrest.

In short – his sudden collapse on the field was likely a result of getting hit in the chest, and had nothing to do with the COVID-19 vaccine.

Fact #2 : Doctors Are Not Allowed To Reveal Health Information

Medical privacy laws like HIPAA prevent doctors and other healthcare providers from sharing their patient’s health information without their expressed consent.

Since Damar Hamlin has largely been sedated and intubated at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center since his collapse, it is impossible for him to consent to something like that.

And it would be rather ludicrous for any doctor of his to bring up the topic of his booster dose vaccination, instead of his immediate physical condition.

Fact #3 : Dr. Benjamin Eidelman Was Not Damar Hamlin’s Doctor

While the tweet makes it sound like Dr. Benjamin Eidelman was Damar Hamlin’s doctor, that does not appear to be the case.

For one thing – in his Twitter account (now deleted), Dr. Benjamin Eidelman did not call himself a medical doctor. Instead, he labelled himself as an “Artist, Data scientist, Disinformation/deception/fraud detector, Democracy Enjoyer, Politics and news commentator“.

The only Dr. Benjamin Eidelman who is a medical doctor with online presence is a completely different man (as this photo comparison shows).

The (fake) Dr. Benjamin Eidelman appears to be a man in his early thirties, while Dr. Benjamin H. Eidelman is a neurologist based in Jacksonville, Florida. Incidentally, the Buffalo Bills are based in New York, so it wouldn’t make sense for their players to get vaccinated by a doctor in Florida, especially when he’s a neurologist!

Fact #4 : Booster Dose Does Not Require Screening Tests

Anyone who has gotten the COVID-19 vaccine would know that it’s a simple jab. There is no need for any medical screening.

Only people who have never been vaccinated will claim / believe that Dr. Benjamin Eidelman conducted screening tests of Damar Hamlin before giving him the booster dose.

Fact #5 : Dr. Benjamin Eidelman Wiped His New Accounts

Dr. Benjamin Eidelman claimed to have vaccinated Damar Hamlin on December 26, which is Boxing Day – the day after Christmas.

Although Boxing Day isn’t a public holiday in the United States, Christmas 2022 fell on a Sunday, so Boxing Day became a holiday in lieu of the usual Christmas Day holiday. Therefore, it is very unlikely that any clinic / hospital would be offering COVID-19 booster doses on December 26, 2022.

Getting a booster dose isn’t so urgent that it must be done on a holiday. Damar Hamlin would likely be enjoying Christmas and Boxing Day with his family (in Pittsburgh), and so would the real Dr. Benjamin Eidelman.

Fact #6 : Dr. Benjamin Eidelman Wiped His New Accounts

The Twitter account called Dr. Benjamin Eidelman (@drbeneidelman) is really new. It was created in December 2022, with the first tweet posted on December 17. It was also the same day, he created his Substack account.

Both accounts were deleted on January 3 – a day after he posted the tweet on giving Damar Hamlin the booster dose.

Scam Alert : Fake Damar Hamlin Donation Requests!

Leave a reply

Please watch out for fake donation requests for Damar Hamlin who suffered a cardiac arrest during a primetime NFL game!

Scam Alert : Fake Damar Hamlin Donation Requests!

After Damar Hamlin suddenly collapsed from cardiac arrest during the primetime NFL game between the Buffalo Bills and the Cincinnati Bengals, his GoFundMe page has exploded with donations – at publication time, it raised over $7.7 million!

However, scammers are apparently also trying to milk public concern for Damar Hamlin, and his family relayed a warning through his friend and marketing rep, Jordon Rooney, about people requesting cash app and GoFundMe donations in his name.

Damars parents wanted me to get this out there:

Beware of people requesting cash app donations and making GoFundMe’s.

If you do want to support Damar’s foundation, his initial toy drive campaign has turned into the central location for that.

Damar Hamlin Donation Shifted From GoFundMe To Website

To avoid further confusion, the Chasing M’s Foundation created a new website to handle the donations directly.

When Rooney announced the new website, he shared that Chasing M’s Foundation is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organisation that is dedicated to “supporting the aspirations of youth and community members through sports, education, and enrichment opportunities“.

The Hamlin family appears to be making these moves to curb the donation scams that have mushroomed over public support for Damar Hamlin.

So please do NOT donate to any other Damar Hamlin initiatives, cash app requests, or GoFundMe pages. The only legitimate avenues for donations towards Damar Hamlin are:

The Chasing M’s Foundation website
University of Cincinnati Trauma Center

Alternatively, you can show your appreciation for first responders and trauma teams in your area, by buying them lunch.

The Real Damar Hamlin Donation GoFundMe Page!

When he was still in college at the University of Pittsburgh, Damar Hamlin started a toy drive on GoFundMe called The Chasing M’s Foundation Community Toy Drive.

Its first program with a 2020 Community Toy Drive, which set a goal of just $2,500 to buy toys for “children who have been hardest hit by the pandemic”.

As I embark on my journey to the NFL, I will never forget where I come from and I am committed to using my platform to positively impact the community that raised me. I created The Chasing M’s Foundation as a vehicle that will allow me to deliver that impact, and the first program is the 2020 Community Toy Drive.

This campaign gives you the opportunity to contribute to our first initiative and positively impact children who have been hardest hit by the pandemic. 100% of the funds raised will go toward the purchase of toys for kids in need. The time to act is now, as we will be distributing toys on December 22nd from 3:30 to 5:30 PM from Kelly and Nina’s Daycare Center at 800 Russellwood Ave., McKees Rocks, PA 15136.

If you are not able to contribute monetarily, you can support this initiative in other ways. We are accepting donated toys at the Daycare Center or simply spread the word by sharing this fundraiser on your social channels.

Thank you so much for supporting me on and off the field. I am grateful to have the opportunity to work with you to help make the holiday season a little brighter for the kids in our community.

Damar Hamlin
The Chasing M’s Foundation

After Damar Hamlin’s sudden collapse on the field, and subsequent hospitalisation in critical condition, his family reused the GoFundMe page to continue funding his community initiatives.

This fundraiser was initially established to support a toy drive for Damar’s community, sponsored by the Chasing M’s Foundation.

However, it has received renewed support in light of Damar’s current battle and we can’t thank all of you enough. Your generosity and compassion mean the world to us.

If you would like to show your support and contribute to Damar’s community initiatives and his current fight, this is the place to do so. This is the only current fund that is being used by the Hamlin Family.

Again, thank you for your thoughts, prayers and generous support during this time.

Damar created The Chasing M’s Foundation to use as a vehicle to bring lasting impact to his community. The foundation supports toy drives, back-to-school drives, kids camps, and more.

Damar Hamlin Donation Not Used To Support His Mother’s Daycare

Jordon Rooney also clarified that the official Damar Hamlin GoFundMe donation page is not being used to fund his mother’s daycare centre.

He explained that it was set up as a toy drive during his college days, and the toy giveaway was held at his mother’s daycare centre. Hence, the address listed in the GoFundMe is still his mother’s daycare centre.

Donations sent to his official GoFundMe would be used to support his foundation, which now does more than just toy drives, but also back to school drives, kids camps and more.

This came after sports business analyst Darren Rovell posted that the Damar Hamlin’s official GoFundMe would fund his mother’s daycare centre.

Damars GoFundMe does not support his mother’s daycare.. This was a toy drive that he set when he was in college and held it at the daycare.

The donations will support his foundation, which does toy drives, back to school drive, kids camps and more. Yeah

Waking up to see the incredible news that more than $3.2 million has been donated to Damar Hamlin’s GoFundMe page that supports his mother’s Day Care Center.

This is the Google Earth photo of the address of the center that corresponds to the GoFundMe. pic.twitter.com/Q5e96cDSUL

Damar Hamlin Shows Improvement, Asked Who Won!

Leave a reply

Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin has shown remarkable improvement, and even asked who won the game!

Damar Hamlin Shows Remarkable Improvement

Damar Hamlin remains in critical condition at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center (UCMC), after suddenly collapsing on the field from a cardiac arrest.

However, doctors at UCMC said that he has shown “remarkable improvement over the past 24 hours“, and appears to be “neurologically intact“.

According to a statement by the Buffalo Bills, the doctors say that “his lungs continue to heal“, and “he is making steady progress“.

We are grateful for the love and support we have received.

The news was much welcomed by his teammates, and brought a lot of smiles at One Bills Drive.

Damar Hamlin Asked – Who Won The Game?

Damar Hamlin remained on the ventilator but is apparently now conscious. While not being able to talk (while on the ventilator), he wrote and asked the doctors who won the game!

The doctor responded, “Damar, you won – you won the game of life“.

That brought a smile to Bengals receiver Tee Higgins who said, “I had a smile when I heard because that’s something I would’ve asked too.“

It was Higgins who hit Hamlin in the chest while he was being tackled during the Monday night football game between the Cincinnati Bengals and the Buffalo Bills on January 2.

Damar Hamlin got up after that tackle but suddenly collapsed from a cardiac arrest that many people have blamed on the COVID-19 vaccines, but is possibly the result of a rare commotio cordis.

Sudden cardiac arrests (without preceding blunt force trauma) are also rather common in young athletes – about 2,000 young athletes in the United States die from it every year.

Damar Hamlin Donations : New Updates!

Damar Hamlin’s close friend and marketing rep, Jordon Rooney, also announced a new website for the Chasing M’s Foundation that Hamlin founded many years earlier – ChasingMsFoundation.com.

The Hamlin family appears to be making these moves to curb the donation scams that have mushroomed over public support for Damar Hamlin.

So please do NOT donate to any other Damar Hamlin initiatives, cash app requests, or GoFundMe pages. The only legitimate avenues for donations towards Damar Hamlin are:

The Chasing M’s Foundation website
University of Cincinnati Trauma Center

Damar Hamlin Resuscitated Twice, Still On Ventilator!

Leave a reply

Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin, who suddenly collapsed during a primetime NFL game, had to be resuscitated twice and is still on a ventilator!

Earlier : Damar Hamlin Collapsed After Tackling Tee Higgins!

On Monday, January 2, 2023, the Buffalo Bills were playing against the Cincinnati Bengals, when Damar Hamlin tackled Bengals receiver Tee Higgins.

Higgins hit him hard in the chest with his helmet, but Hamlin initially appeared to be fine. He stood up briefly before suddenly collapsing.

Medical personnel rushed to his aid, giving him CPR and trying to resuscitate him with an automated external defibrillator (AED). After working on him for about 16 minutes, they immobilised him and transported him to the University of Cincinnati Medical Center.

Damar Hamlin’s sudden collapse on the field has led to claims that he suffered from a COVID-19 vaccine side effect.

Damar Hamlin Resuscitated Twice, Still On Ventilator!

Damar Hamlin’s friend and marketing rep, Jordon Rooney, initially posted an update on his condition, stating that his vitals were back to normal, and implied that he was awake was still unable to breathe on his own.

Hence, the doctors sedated Hamlin so he could be intubated and placed on a ventilator.

His vitals are back to normal and they have put him to sleep to put a breathing tube down his throat. They are currently running tests.

His Buffalo Bills team also shared an update, stating that Damar Hamlin remained in the ICU in critical condition.

Damar Hamlin spent last night in the intensive care unit and remains there today in critical condition at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center.

We are grateful and thankful for the outpouring of support we have received thus far.

Later, his uncle Dorrian Glenn said that Damar had to be resuscitated twice. The medical team revived him on the field before putting him on the ambulance, but he ended to be resuscitated again in the hospital.

He confirmed that Damar was still in the ICU, and on the ventilator, but said that he was “trending upwards in a positive way”.

His heart had went out so they had to resuscitate him twice. They resuscitated him on the field before they brought him to the hospital and then they resuscitated him a second time when they got him to the hospital.

They sedated him just to give a better chance for him to just continue to heal better. We are just taking it day by day. It seems like he’s trending upwards in a positive way.

Right now they’ve got him on a ventilator. They are trying to get him to breathe on his own. He is still in ICU and sedated while they continue to administer medical treatment. I am thankful for the staff that have been working with him.

Glenn also said that he apparently suffered some lung damage, and is still unable to breathe on his own. Hence, Damar Hamlin still has to rely on a ventilator, and he was even flipped to lie on his stomach, to help increase blood flow to his lungs.

It has been heartbreaking. I’ve been up for 24 hours. It is good to support my nephew and be by his side. It’s tremendous to see the love and support there is for him. It’s truly amazing.

It’s still very much day by day. Once he gets out of the ICU I will feel better. My nephew is humble. He is going to be floored by the love.

His close friend and family rep, Jordon Rooney, also shared an announcement from Damar Hamlin’s family:

FROM THE FAMILY OF DAMAR HAMLIN:

“On behalf of our family, we want to express our sincere gratitude for the love and support shown to Damar during this challenging time. We are deeply moved by the prayers, kind words, and donations from fans around the country.

We also want to acknowledge the dedicated first responders and healthcare professionals at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center who have provided exceptional care to Damar. We feel so blessed to be part of the Buffalo Bills organization and to have their support. We also want to thank Coach Taylor and the Bengals for everything they’ve done.

Your generosity and compassion mean the world to us.

Please keep Damar in your prayers.

We will release updates as soon as we have them.”

THANK YOU, THE HAMLIN FAMILY

His family also warned the public about people requesting cash app and GoFundMe donations in his name, and asked that all donations be directed to his official GoFundMe.

Damars parents wanted me to get this out there:

Beware of people requesting cash app donations and making GoFundMe’s.

If you do want to support Damar’s foundation, his initial toy drive campaign has turned into the central location for that.

Did Damar Hamlin Collapse From Vaccine SADS?!

Leave a reply

Did NFL athlete Damar Hamlin collapse suddenly from vaccine-induced sudden adult death syndrome (SADS)?!

Take a look at the viral claims, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Damar Hamlin Collapsed From Vaccine SADS!

Right after news broke that Damar Hamlin collapsed suddenly during a primetime NFL game, anti-vaccination activists immediately claimed that the 24 year-old NFL athlete was a victim of COVID-19 vaccine sudden adult death syndrome (SADS)!

Here are some examples on social media:

I’m at the twitter command center right now and I can tell you that black people are MAD about Damar Hamlin and what the vaccine did to this young king.

Don’t take the vaccine. Don’t take any more boosters if you’ve already been vaxed. Damar Hamlin and many others have had issues. They will lie and say it’s something else. It’s not it’s the vaccine

The number of sudden collapses and deaths will continue to increase.
Damar Hamlin is just another number in a very long statistic of the safe and effective DNA altering MRNA “vaccine” shot.
If people wouldn’t be NPC’s then they would be burning down governments as of now.

Truth : Damar Hamlin Did Not Collapse From Vaccine SADS!

It’s now a tradition for anti-vaccination activists to immediately blame all athlete deaths or illnesses on the COVID-19 vaccine.

This is yet another example of FAKE NEWS created and propagated by anti-vaccination activists, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : Damar Hamlin In Critical Condition After Getting Hit

Damar Hamlin (born Damar Romeyelle Hamlin on March 24, 1998) is an American football safety for the Buffalo Bills of the National Football League (NFL).

Hamlin was said to have a pulse, but in a critical condition, and unable to breathe on his own. He was intubated and given oxygen in the ambulance on the way to the hospital.

The NFL issued this statement on Damar Hamlin’s sudden collapse on the field:

NFL STATEMENT ON BILLS-BENGALS GAME

Tonight’s Buffalo Bills-Cincinnati Bengals game has been postponed after Buffalo Bills’ Damar Hamlin collapsed, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell announced.

Hamlin received immediate medical attention on the field by team and independent medical staff and local paramedics. He was then transported to a local hospital where he is in critical condition.

Our thoughts are with Damar and the Buffalo Bills. We will provide more information as it becomes available.

The NFL has been in constant communication with the NFL Players Association which is in agreement with postponing the game.

Damar Hamlin’s friend and marketing rep, Jordon Rooney, later posted an update on his condition, stating that his vitals were back to normal, and implied that he was awake was still unable to breathe on his own. So, he was sedated before being intubated.

His vitals are back to normal and they have put him to sleep to put a breathing tube down his throat. They are currently running tests.

On January 4, his uncle Dorrian Glenn said that Damar had to be resuscitated twice – on the field and in the hospital, and confirmed that Damar was in the ICU, and still on the ventilator.

Fact #2 : Damar Hamlin Possibly Suffered Commotio Cordis

Sudden cardiac arrest happens quite often, even in athletes who appear to be in perfect health. In fact, over 320,000 adults in the United States alone die from sudden cardiac arrest every year, and about 2,000 of them are young athletes.

That is why many states in the US require automated external defibrillators (AEDs) to be made available in health clubs, gyms, schools, and other public places. That said, Damar Hamlin does not appear to have collapsed from sudden cardiac arrest.

Instead Damar Hamlin possibly suffered Commotio cordis, which is Latin for “agitation of the heart“. This is a very rare event, but is known to happen in sports that can result in blows to the chest, like baseball, American football, ice hockey, polo, rugby, cricket, softball, boxing, wrestling and martial arts.

Commotio cordis is an often lethal disruption of the heart’s rhythm, that occurs as a result of a blow to the chest. If the blow occurs at a very specific time – as the ventricles repolarises (resets), it will trigger the heart to go into arrhythmia, causing a cardiac arrest.

While commotio cordis can only happen when the blunt force trauma to the heart occurs at exactly in the ascending phase of the T wave, this risk is escalated during sporting activities, as the heart rate rises and increases the risk of a blow to the chest triggering Commotio cordis.

This is a form of ventricular fibrillation (V-Fib) and is not caused by any mechanical damage to the heart, or a pre-existing heart condition. The person collapses about six seconds later, as the ventricles are unable to contract properly.

In the playback videos that have gone viral, you can clearly see Damar Hamlin get hit very hard in the chest as he tried to tackle Tee Higgins. Although he was able to get up on his own, he collapsed almost instantly after that. That makes commotio cordis far more likely the cause of his collapse, than a simple sudden cardiac arrest.

Needless to say – his collapse had NOTHING to do with COVID-19 vaccines. In the following video, you can see Dr. Brian Sutterer – a sports medicine doctor, explain why Damar Hamlin likely suffered from commotio cordis.

Dr. @BrianSuttererMD (Sports Medicine Doctor) gives his opinion on possibly what happened to Damar Hamlin (Buffalo Bills Football player) during his 1-2-2023 collapse. He breaks down “Commotio Cordis” #DamarHamlin 🙏🏽🙏🏽 pic.twitter.com/C0VurQ3kSF

— Charms ♥ ♥ ♥~ (@NurseCharms) January 3, 2023

Dr. Bernard Ashby, a vascular cardiologist and a medical school professor, concurred; stating that the video of Damar Hamlin collapsing after getting hit in the chest resembled commotio cordis.

The video of Damar Hamlin from a cardiologist’s perspective resembled commotio cordis – a phenomenon that occurs when a sudden blunt impact to the chest causes cardiac arrest.

Timely defibrillation is life saving & prevents anoxic brain injury. I pray an AED was near.

— Bernard Ashby MD, MPP, FACC (@BAshbyMD) January 3, 2023

Fact #3 : Unknown If Damar Hamlin Was Vaccinated

It is unknown if Damar Hamlin was vaccinated against COVID-19, as he has never publicly stated his vaccination status, or his preference for or against the vaccines.

The COVID-19 vaccine is not mandatory in the United States or the NFL, at least for the coaches and players.

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, for example, was notorious for refusing to get vaccinated against COVID-19.

Until and unless we know his COVID-19 vaccination status, it would be wrong for anyone to claim that he suffered any kind of vaccine injury.

Fact #4 : Claims Of Athletes Injured By COVID-19 Vaccine Proven False

This is yet another example of anti-vaccination activists abusing athlete deaths / injuries to create and propagate FAKE NEWS about the safety and efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines.

So far, claims of athlete deaths / injuries due to the COVID-19 vaccine have been proven false at every instance.

Will these anti-vaccination activists apologise for lying to you? Nope! They will just move on to the next athlete tragedy…

Kris Letang : Was His Stroke Caused By Vaccine?!

Leave a reply

Did NHL player Kris Letang suffer a stroke caused by vaccine-induced blood clots?!

Take a look at the viral claims, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Kris Letang Suffered Stroke From Vaccine-Induced Blood Clots!

Right after news broke that Kris Letang suffered a stroke, anti-vaccination activists immediately claimed that the 35 year-old NHL player was a victim of blood clots caused by COVID-19 vaccine!

Here are some examples on social media:

Jennifer Margulis : Pittsburgh Penguins Defenseman Kris Letang Out Indefinitely After suffering Stroke. He’s 35 years old. This is not normal or okay.

Rob Schneider : The silence about this and lack of even daring to question this previously rare or unheard of occurrences tells you all need to know…

They’re attempting to normalize this… Young, healthy people in their prime don’t just drop dead. #SADS #DiedSuddendly

Truth : Kris Letang Did Not Get Stroke From Vaccine-Induced Blood Clots!

It’s now a tradition for anti-vaccination activists to immediately blame all athlete deaths or illnesses on the COVID-19 vaccine.

This is yet another example of FAKE NEWS created and propagated by anti-vaccination activists, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : Kris Letang Had Debilitating Headaches

Kris Letang (born Kristopher Joseph Pierre Irwin Letang on April 24, 1987) is a Canadian professional ice hockey player, and an alternate captain for the Pittsburgh Penguins of the National Hockey League (NHL).

On Monday, November 28, 2022, he suffered a series of debilitating headaches, and reported them to the Penguins training staff. He was immediately taken to the hospital for testing, where it was confirmed he suffered a stroke.

Fact #2 : Kris Letang Survived His Stroke

Some anti-vaccination activists falsely / wrongly claimed that Kris Letang “died suddenly” from vaccine SADS or a stroke caused by vaccine-induced blood clots. That’s false. Kris Letang survived the stroke, and is still alive today.

Kris Letang was fortunate to have reported his headaches and sought treatment quickly, and his stroke is “not believed to be career threatening“, and he is “not experiencing any lasting effects of the stroke“.

I am fortunate to know my body well enough to recognize when something isn’t right. While it is difficult to navigate this issue publicly, I am hopeful it can raise awareness. It is important for me that my teammates, family and the fans know that I am okay. I am optimistic that I will be back on the ice soon.

Ten days after suffering the stroke, Kris Letang was well enough to return to practice with his teammates. He returned to the lineup on December 10, and skated 22:14 in a 3-1 victory over the Buffalo Sabres.

Fact #3 : Kris Letang Had A Stroke In 2014 As Well

What anti-vaccination activists won’t tell you is that this was not the first time Kris Letang had a stroke.

He first suffered a stroke in 2014, which was more serious and took him out of action for more than two months.

Obviously, that was more than six years before the first COVID-19 vaccines were approved!

Fact #4 : Both Strokes Were Due To PFO

When Kris Letang suffered his first stroke in 2014, doctors discovered that he had a patent foramen ovale (PFO) – a hole in the central wall of his heart.

We are all born with this hole in the heart – a flap-like opening in the wall that divides the right and left atrium (upper chambers) of the heart. This foramen ovale usually closes in infancy, and prevents the blood in the right and left atriums from mixing.

The blood that enters the right side of the heart gets pumped to the lungs where it is oxygenated. At the same time, the lungs act as a kind of filter that traps small blood clots that may develop.

However, the foramen ovale does not close completely in about 25% of people. This allows blood from the right side to enter into the left side, which means blood clots may “leak” into the left side as well, instead of getting filtered by the lungs.

These blood clots may travel to the arteries in the brain, and cause an ischaemic stroke by blocking off normal blood flow.

In Kris Letang’s case, both strokes were attributed to his patent foramen ovale (PFO), and not the COVID-19 vaccines.

Recommended : Did Adrian Dingle Die From Vaccine SADS?!

Fact #5 : Kris Letang Is Fully Vaccinated

In October 2021, the Pittsburgh Penguins confirmed that Kris Letang was fully-vaccinated against COVID-19, as are all Penguins players.

At that time, multiple Penguins players tested positive for COVID-19, but they all had mild symptoms or were asymptomatic. That was testament to the effectiveness of the COVID-19 vaccines.

Fact #6 : Kris Letang’s Vaccination Had Nothing To Do With His Stroke

I should point out clearly that Kris Letang’s COVID-19 vaccination has nothing to do with his stroke, which was due to a heart condition he was born with.

Claims that his condition may have worsened due to the COVID-19 vaccines are also untrue, because his 2022 stroke was milder than his 2014 stroke.

The Penguins team physician Dr. Dharmesh Vyas described the 2022 stroke as “smaller” than the one Letang endured in 2014, and noted that the symptoms resolved themselves much more quickly.

As noted in Fact #2, Kris Letang started skating on his own two days after his 2022 stroke, but was out of action for over two months after his 2014 stroke.

Fact #7 : Claims Of Athletes Injured By COVID-19 Vaccine Proven False

This is yet another example of anti-vaccination activists abusing athlete deaths / injuries to create and propagate FAKE NEWS about the safety and efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines.

So far, claims of athlete deaths / injuries due to the COVID-19 vaccine have been proven false at every instance.

Did Brad William Henke Die From Vaccine SADS?!

Did Orange Is The New Black actor and former NFL player Brad William Henke die from COVID-19 vaccine SADS?!

Take a look at the viral claims, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Brad William Henke Died From Vaccine Sudden Death!

Right after news broke that Brad William Henke died, anti-vaccination activists immediately claimed that the 56-old Orange Is The New Black actor and former NFL player died from vaccine-induced sudden death (SADS / VIDS / VDS)!

Here is a selection of social media posts accompanying links or articles on his death:

Another one murdered by the jab in my opinion. Too many “”sudden” or “unexpected” deaths not to be linked.

No Evidence Brad William Henke Died From Vaccine Sudden Death!

It’s now a tradition for anti-vaccination activists to immediately blame all celebrity deaths or illnesses on the COVID-19 vaccine.

This is yet another example of FAKE NEWS created and propagated by anti-vaccination activists, and here are the reasons why, and what we know so far…

Fact #1 : Brad William Henke Died Peacefully In His Sleep

Brad William Henke (born April 10, 1966) was a former NFL player, who later went into acting where he is best known for his role as Corrections Officer Desi Piscatella on Orange Is The New Black.

Brad William Henke passed away in his sleep on Monday, November 28, 2022. His agent, Sheree Cohen, confirmed his death, and said that he died “peacefully in his sleep”.

Henke is survived by his mother Tammy, his sister Annette, his wife Sonya, his stepchildren Aaden and Leasa, and a grandchild, Amirah.

Fact #2 : Brad William Henke’s Cause Of Death Is Unknown

Brad William Henke’s family, manager and agent spoke out about his death, but no one has revealed his cause of death.

Until and unless his family or their representatives publicly reveal his cause of death, anyone who claims that Brad William Henke died of this or that cause is most likely lying to you.

Fact #3 : Brad William Henke Had Health Issues

Even though we do not know his cause of death, it should be noted that Brad William Henke had his share of health issues in recent years.

On May 16, 2021, he shared that he survived a 90% blockage of a (heart) artery, and almost had a heart attack.

Six weeks later, he revealed that he not only had two stents to correct his heart artery blockage, he also had his spleen and half his pancreas removed after a golf-sized tumour was found.

Fact #4 : Unknown If Brad William Henke Was Vaccinated

It is currently unknown if Brad William Henke was vaccinated against COVID-19, so it would be wrong for anyone to claim that he died from COVID-19 vaccine side effects.

For all we know – he may not even be vaccinated! The COVID-19 vaccine is not mandatory in the United States, despite what anti-vaccination activists may claim.

For example, anti-vaccination activists claimed that Kaden Clymer was almost crippled by a 6-foot long vaccine-induced blood clot, but the high school athlete was never vaccinated against COVID-19!

Fact #5 : Vaccine Side Effects Appear Within Hours / Days

Even if Brad William Henke was vaccinated, he would have been vaccinated more than 1.5 years ago.

He cannot possibly have died from a vaccine side effect, because they appear within hours or days, not many months later.

Mild side effects like injection site pain, fever, muscle ache, headache, lethargy develop within minutes to hours of the vaccination.

Anaphylaxis develops within minutes, while other severe adverse reactions like myocarditis and VITT develop within days.

The spike proteins produced by the COVID-19 vaccines also do not stick around for months. If these spike proteins are permanent (as antivaxxers claim), we would have lifelong immunity.

Fact #6 : COVID-19 Vaccines Cannot Prevent Other Causes Of Death

COVID-19 vaccines are designed to protect us against severe illness and death from COVID-19, by teaching our own immune system how to create antibodies against the SARS-CoV-2 virus.

They, however, cannot protect us against other causes of death, whether it’s a heart attack, SADS or even other viruses. Hence, fully-vaccinated people can and will die from other causes of death.

It is therefore ludicrous for anti-vaccination activists to blame all deaths of fully-vaccinated people on the vaccine. Did they really expect the COVID-19 vaccine to be an elixir of immortality? Please grow up.

Fact #7 : Deaths / Injuries From COVID-19 Vaccines Can Be Proven

Despite anti-vaccination activists chalking up celebrity deaths to the vaccine; death or injury from rare vaccine adverse effects like anaphylaxis, myocarditis and VITT can be proven.

Anaphylaxis (severe allergic reaction) from Pfizer or Moderna mRNA vaccines happens within minutes. That’s why people are asked to wait for 15-30 minutes after getting the vaccine. People who get an anaphylactic shock will require an epinephrine shot to quickly relieve it.

Vaccine-induced myocarditis has distinct histopathology findings that are different from typical myocarditis, so a pathologist will be able to determine if the myocarditis was caused by the vaccines or otherwise.

Vaccine-induced Thrombotic Thrombocytopenia (VITT) is very specific to the AstraZeneca and Johnson & Johnson vaccines. It is also easily differentiated by its unique combination of blood clots in large veins of the brains, abdomen and lungs, together with low platelet counts leading to bleeding tendencies.

Fact #8 : Claims Of Celebrities Injured By COVID-19 Vaccine Proven False

This is yet another example of anti-vaccination activists abusing celebrity deaths / injuries to create and propagate FAKE NEWS about the safety and efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines.

So far, claims of celebrity deaths / injuries due to the COVID-19 vaccine have been proven false at every instance. Here is the latest dozen of other false celebrity claims!

Will these anti-vaccination activists apologise for lying to you? Nope! They will just move on to the next celebrity tragedy…

Did Adrian Dingle Die From Vaccine SADS?!

Leave a reply

Did former NFL athlete, Adrian Dingle, die from vaccine-induced Sudden Adult Death Syndrome?!

Take a look at the viral claims, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Adrian Dingle Died From Vaccine Sudden Death!

Right after news broke that 45 year-old Adrian Dingle died unexpectedly, anti-vaccination activists immediately claim that the former NFL defensive tackle died from vaccine-induced sudden death (SADS / VIDS / VDS)!

Former NFL Defensive Lineman Adrian Dingle Dead at 45

Anyone else notice that since the china virus vax came out that normal and otherwise perfectly healthy people are dying off at alarming rates? Nothing to see here, move along!

When are people going to be outraged about this..
All of these death.
VAXD

Justice and accountability now

Adrian Dingle, former Chargers defensive end and Clemson standout, dead at 45

No Evidence Adrian Dingle Died From COVID-19 Vaccine!

It’s becoming a tradition for anti-vaccination activists to immediately blame all athlete deaths or injuries on the COVID-19 vaccine.

This is yet another example of FAKE NEWS created and propagated by anti-vaccination activists, and here are the reasons why… and the current facts that we know so far.

Fact #1 : Adrian Dingle‘s Cause Of Death Is Unknown

Adrian Dingle (born Adrian Kennell Dingle on June 25, 1977), was a professional football player, playing as a defensive tackle in the NFL for the San Diego Chargers from 2000 to 2004.

The Clemson Tigers, which Dingle played 46 games for during college, announced the news on its website, stating that he died on Tuesday, November 8, 2022.

CLEMSON, S.C. — Former Clemson All-ACC defensive end Adrian Dingle passed away on Nov. 8, 2022. He was 45 years old.

The Clemson Tigers did not reveal Adrian Dingle’s cause of death. Neither did his family, or the Shuler-Marshall Funeral Home, which was handling his funeral:

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Mr. Adrian K. Dingle of Winthrop, MA, formerly of Holly Hill. Funeral arrangements are incomplete. The family will be receiving condolences via telephone and online.

Currently, no one knows Adrian Dingle’s cause of death. So it is wrong for anyone to claim that Adrian Dingle died from vaccine-induced sudden adult death syndrome.

For all we know – he could have died from a vehicular accident, stroke, sudden cardiac arrest, suicide, drug overdose, or even a fall. There are many possible causes of sudden deaths that have nothing to do with vaccines.

Until his family publicly reveals his official cause of death, anyone who claims that Adrian Dingle died of this cause or that cause is LYING to you.

Fact #2 : His Fiancé + Cousin Did Not Blame The Vaccine

Adrian Dingle’s fiancé, Amy C. Bell, posted twice on Instagram (here and here), and spoke to People magazine about his death.

While Adrian was known for his football accomplishments, he was so much more than football. In the few short days since his passing, I’ve been overwhelmed by the outpouring of stories and memories.

The common theme is his infectious smile and his selfless love. I’ve never met any other person who could meet someone once and go on to be a groomsman in a wedding. His smile will live on through his gorgeous babies who loved their daddy beyond measure.

His cousin, China Harris also posted on Facebook about his death:

I Am Lost For Words Right Now My Cousin Adrian Dingle. Passed Away This Morning He Was A Loving Sweet Person Inside And Out My Condolences And 🙏🙏🙏🙏Goes To His Kids Wife And My Family R.I.P Cuz Gone To Soon But Never Forgotten Love You So Much I Will Never Forget That Beautiful Smile 😥💔😥💔😥💔

Yet, neither his fiancé nor his cousin ever suggested or blamed the COVID-19 vaccine for his death. Neither did they reveal what killed Adrian Dingle.

So it is really odd why anti-vaccination activists would claim that Adrian Dingle died from the COVID-19 vaccines. Do they know better than his cousin, or his fiancé and the mother of his kids – Ava and Adrian James.?

Fact #3 : His Friend Suggested He Committed Suicide

His friend, retired sprinter Tyree Washington, posted a tribute on Instagram which suggested that Adrian Dingle committed suicide.

He called for people to check up on their friends, and reach out to others if they have mental health issues.

Rest Easy my brother Adrian Dingle🙏🏾❤️🕊️. Your smile was infectious and your drive to be the best at your craft was amazing💯! Looks are deceiving! Never assume someone is alright because of their success, looks, material possessions etc. Check up on your peeps💯! We all need somebody💯! #mentalhealth #NFLPA #NFL Athletes for Hope

It was a pleasure to share the field with my bro while being teammates with Los Angeles Chargers. Prayers up for your family🙏🏾❤️.

Fact #4 : Unknown If Adrian Dingle Was Vaccinated

It is currently unknown if Adrian Dingle was vaccinated against COVID-19, so it would be wrong for anyone to claim that he died from COVID-19 vaccine side effects.

For all we know – he may not even be vaccinated! The COVID-19 vaccine is not mandatory in the United States, despite what anti-vaccination activists may claim.

For example, anti-vaccination activists claimed that Kaden Clymer was almost crippled by a 6-foot long vaccine-induced blood clot, but the high school athlete was never vaccinated against COVID-19!

Fact #5 : Vaccine Side Effects Appear Within Hours / Days

Even if Adrian Dingle was vaccinated against COVID-19, he would have received all of his doses many months ago.

He cannot possibly have died from a vaccine side effect, because they appear within hours or days, not months later.

Mild side effects like injection site pain, fever, muscle ache, headache, lethargy develop within minutes to hours of the vaccination.

Anaphylaxis develops within minutes, while other severe adverse reactions like myocarditis and VITT develop within days.

The spike proteins produced by the COVID-19 vaccines also do not stick around for months. If these spike proteins are permanent (as antivaxxers claim), we would have lifelong immunity.

Fact #6 : Deaths / Injuries From COVID-19 Vaccines Can Be Proven

Despite anti-vaccination activists chalking up celebrity deaths to the vaccine; death or injury from rare vaccine adverse effects like anaphylaxis, myocarditis and VITT can be proven.

Fact #7 : COVID-19 Vaccines Proven Safe + Effective

COVID-19 vaccines underwent massive clinical trials, and were only approved after they were proven to be safe and effective.

In addition, they were constantly monitored after they received their approvals, which picked up rare side effects after they were administered to billions of people.

Anti-vaccination activists have often claimed that those who received the vaccine would die. Yet, the opposite was true – the vaccines are not only safe, they are effective in protecting people from getting hospitalised or dying from COVID-19.

Even prominent antivaxxer Steve Kirsch is healthy and well, despite being fully-vaccinated against COVID-19!

Fact #8 : Claims Of Athletes Dying From COVID-19 Vaccine Proven False

This is yet another example of anti-vaccination activists abusing athlete deaths / injuries to create and propagate FAKE NEWS about the safety and efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines.

So far, claims of athlete deaths / injuries due to the COVID-19 vaccine have been proven false at every instance.

Will these anti-vaccination activists apologise for lying to you? Nope! They will just move on to the next athlete tragedy…

Adam Zimmer, asst Bengals coach age 38 found dead. No cause given, no foul play. Here’s his dad, as Vikings coach frustrated with players not getting the vaccine. I’m willing to bet this is a case of SADS & the coroner will find he had myocarditis 🚫💉

Sudden mRNA Death Syndrome.

No Evidence Adam Zimmer Died From COVID-19 Vaccine!

It’s becoming a tradition for anti-vaccination activists to immediately blame all athlete deaths or injuries on the COVID-19 vaccine.

This is yet another example of FAKE NEWS created and propagated by anti-vaccination activists, and here are the reasons why… and the current facts that we know so far.

Fact #1 : Adam Zimmer Was Found Dead With An Eye Injury

Adam Zimmer (born January 13, 1984) started working with the Cincinnati Bengals as their offensive analyst in July 2022, working remotely from his Minnesota home.

At 1:13 PM on Monday, October 31, the Mendota Heights Police Department were called to conduct a welfare check at his house in the 2500 block of Condon Court, after someone reported that he “had passed out from drinking“.

Based on a search warrant affidavit filed at the Dakota County District Court last week, officers found Adam Zimmer seated on a couch, and he “appeared to have bruising or blood pooling around his eye“, suggesting he may have been punched in the eye.

A woman was there when the police arrived, although the court filing did not identify her, or explain her relationship to Adam Zimmer, if any.

The police department said that “there are no signs of foul play“, and that there are no suspicious circumstances surrounding his death. Police captain Wayne Wegener said that his office was “not investigating this as a suspicious death“.

According to the inventory receipt tied to the court filing, the police only took an iPhone, presumably belonging to Adam Zimmer.

Fact #2 : Adam Zimmer’s Cause Of Death Is Currently Unknown

Adam Zimmer’s body was sent to the Hennepin County Medical Examiner’s Office, where the coroner will conduct an autopsy to determine his cause and manner of death.

The coroner completed the autopsy but has not released the results. Adam Zimmer’s body was released to his family, and his funeral was scheduled for 11 AM on Tuesday, November 8, 2022 at the Good Shepherd Catholic Community Church in Colleyville.

Until the autopsy results are known, anyone who claims that Adam Zimmer died of this cause or that cause is lying to you.

There is no evidence that the COVID-19 vaccines had any part in his death. But the court filing suggested that alcohol had a part to play in his death.

Fact #3 : Adam Zimmer Was Likely Vaccinated

Anti-vaccination activists are pointing to the fact that his father, Minnesota Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer is very public about his support for COVID-19 vaccination as “evidence” that Adam must be fully-vaccinated too.

While that is certainly a possibility, there is no evidence that Adam Zimmer was vaccinated against COVID-19, so it is wrong for anyone to claim that she died from COVID-19 vaccine side effects.

Earlier I wrote that there is no vaccine mandate in the NFL, and that Mike Zimmer kept expressing his frustration that some of his players refuse to get vaccinated. If the head coach cannot even get the players over which he has so much power to get the vaccine, he cannot force his own son to get vaccinated if he didn’t want to.

However, Steven Cass just pointed out that the NFL requires coaches to get vaccinated against COVID-19. He is correct – the NFL required coaches, front-office staff and team personnel to receive a COVID-19 vaccine booster by December 27, 2021.

That said, the NFL vaccine mandate offers exemptions to those who are not eligible to be vaccinated (by CDC definition), and those who contracted COVID-19 in the last 90 days.

Fact #4 : Vaccine Side Effects Appear Within Hours / Days

Even if Adam Zimmer was vaccinated against COVID-19, he would have received all of his doses more than 10 months ago.

He cannot possibly have died from a vaccine side effect, because they appear within hours or days, not months later.

Mild side effects like injection site pain, fever, muscle ache, headache, lethargy develop within minutes to hours of the vaccination.

Anaphylaxis develops within minutes, while other severe adverse reactions like myocarditis and VITT develop within days.

The spike proteins produced by the COVID-19 vaccines also do not stick around for months. If these spike proteins are permanent (as antivaxxers claim), we would have lifelong immunity.

Fact #5 : Deaths / Injuries From COVID-19 Vaccines Can Be Proven

Despite anti-vaccination activists chalking up celebrity deaths to the vaccine; death or injury from rare vaccine adverse effects like anaphylaxis, myocarditis and VITT can be proven.

Fact #6 : COVID-19 Vaccines Proven Safe + Effective

COVID-19 vaccines underwent massive clinical trials, and were only approved after they were proven to be safe and effective.

In addition, they were constantly monitored after they received their approvals, which picked up rare side effects after they were administered to billions of people.

Even prominent antivaxxer Steve Kirsch is healthy and well, despite being fully-vaccinated against COVID-19!

Marion Barber III : Cause Of Death Not Vaccine SADS!

Leave a reply

Former Dallas Cowboys running back Marion Barber III died from a heat stroke, not the COVID-19 vaccine!

Take a look at the viral claims, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Marion Barber III Died From COVID-19 Vaccine!

People keep claiming that former Dallas Cowboys running back, Marion Barber III, died from COVID-19 vaccine side effects.

Many insisted that he is “yet another” case of Sudden Adult Death Syndrome (SADS) caused by getting vaccinated against COVID-19.

Here are just a few examples of those claims circulating on social media :

Marion Barber III Died Due To Heat Stroke, Officials Say – sounds more like SAD SUDDEN ADULT DEATH SYNDROME !! I am very sorry for this unexpected loss and for his family. #SAD #COVID #VACCINE

When your child dies from the vaccine, you are a bad parent. Do not deserve the pleasure of having offspring. #StoptheShots For more see blm loving, jab mandate enforcing #NFL

TOTALLY normal, nothing to see here, not at ALL related to the COVID Vaccine, along with Ray Liotta and Andrew Fletcher. Marion Barber, former Dallas Cowboys running back, dead at 38 #COVID19 #COVIDVACCINE #VaccineSideEffects #rayliotta #andrewfletcher

Marion Barber III Died From Heat Stroke, Not Vaccine!

This is yet another example of FAKE NEWS created and propagated by anti-vaccination activists, and here are the reasons why… and the current facts that we know so far.

Fact #1 : Police Found Marion Barber III Dead At Home

On Wednesday, 1 June 2022, a tenant complained about water leaking from Marion Barber III’s apartment. However, apartment staff were unable to contact Barber, and his apartment was locked from the inside.

The Frisco, Texas police was then asked to conduct a welfare check. When they forced their way into the apartment and found 38 year-old Marion Barber III dead.

The police incident report noted that family members had not heard from Barber for six days before his body was found. They also noted that Barber “was known to have a history of medical problems and mental health concerns“.

Fact #2 : Autopsy Report Confirmed Marion Barber III Died From Heat Stroke

The Collin County Medical Examiner’s Office has ruled that the Marion Barber III died from a heat stroke, according to his autopsy report. His death was ruled to be an accident.

According to the autopsy report, police officers found exercise equipment in his unit, and that one of the bathtub faucets in Barber’s apartment was left running with the temperature set to 91°F (33°F).

The coroner noted in his report, “Mr. Barber was known to exercise in sauna-like conditions“.

This autopsy report conclusively confirmed that the cause of death for Marion Barber III was a heat stroke, not the COVID-19 vaccine.

Fact #3 : Marion Barber III Did Not Die In His Sleep

Many anti-vaccination activists claimed that Marion Barber III died in his sleep from Sudden Adult Death Syndrome (SADS) caused by the COVID-19 vaccine.

As the autopsy report confirmed – Marion Barber III died while exercising in sauna-like conditions, not while he was sleeping.

Fact #4 : Unknown If Marion Barber III Was Even Vaccinated

It is currently unknown if Marion Barber III was vaccinated against COVID-19, so it would be wrong for anyone to claim that he died from COVID-19 vaccines.

For all we know – he may not even be vaccinated! The COVID-19 vaccine is not mandatory in the United States, despite what anti-vaccination activists may claim.

Fact #5 : Vaccine Side Effects Appear Within Hours / Days

Even if Marion Barber III was vaccinated against COVID-19, he would have received all of his doses months ago.

He cannot possibly have died from a vaccine side effect, because they appear within hours or days, not months later.

Mild side effects like injection site pain, fever, muscle ache, headache, lethargy develop within minutes to hours of the vaccination.

Anaphylaxis develops within minutes, while other severe adverse reactions like myocarditis and VITT develop within days.

The spike proteins produced by the COVID-19 vaccines also do not stick around for months. If these spike proteins are permanent (as antivaxxers claim), we would have lifelong immunity.

Fact #6 : Deaths / Injuries From COVID-19 Vaccines Can Be Proven

Despite anti-vaccination activists chalking up celebrity deaths to the vaccine; death or injury from rare vaccine adverse effects like anaphylaxis, myocarditis and VITT can be proven.

Fact #7 : COVID-19 Vaccines Proven Safe + Effective

COVID-19 vaccines underwent massive clinical trials, and were only approved after they were proven to be safe and effective.

In addition, they were constantly monitored after they received their approvals, which picked up rare side effects after they were administered to billions of people.

Even prominent antivaxxer Steve Kirsch is healthy and well, despite being fully-vaccinated against COVID-19!

Fact #8 : Claims Of Celebrities Dying From COVID-19 Vaccine Proven False

This is yet another example of anti-vaccination activists abusing celebrity deaths / injuries to create and propagate FAKE NEWS about the safety and efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines.

So far, claims of celebrity deaths / injuries due to the COVID-19 vaccine have been proven false at every instance.

Jaylon Ferguson Autopsy : Cause Of Death Was Drug OD!

Leave a reply

An autopsy has confirmed that Ravens linebacker, Jaylon Ferguson, died from a drug overdose, not the COVID-19 vaccine!

Take a look at the viral claims, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Jaylon Ferguson Died From Vaccine-Induced SADS!

Just hours after news broke that Baltimore Ravens linebacker, Jaylon Ferguson died, people started claiming that he died from Sudden Adult Death Syndrome (SADS) caused by the COVID-19 vaccine.

Here are just a few examples of those claims circulating on social media :

Vax death 100000% add jaylon Ferguson to that list. 25 yrs old natural causes my left nut

Athletes …. natural causes? More like Vax side effects. Sorry but 25, 26 yr old athletes don’t die from natural causes and it’s happening non stop. Soccer, cricket, rugby, football, basketball…. wake up folks. This isn’t natural

Jaylon Ferguson dead at 26 from vaccine. CBS needs to expose dangers of vaccines.

NFL rocked by tragedy as Jaylon Ferguson dies. Vaccine Deaths. Dropping like Flies. Murdered by their own Govt and the WEF. Right in front of your eyes but your all too Indoctrinated. So sad.

Sudden Adult Death Syndrome (SADS) ? #Vaccines

Jaylon Ferguson Autopsy : Cause Of Death Was Drug Overdose!

This is yet another example of FAKE NEWS created and propagated by anti-vaccination activists, and here are the reasons why… and the current facts that we know so far.

Fact #1 : Jaylon Ferguson Died From Drug Overdose

On July 1, 2022, Bruce Goldfarb – spokesman for the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner – said that Jaylon Ferguson’s cause of death was the “combined effects of fentanyl and cocaine“.

His death was ruled an accident, based on that autopsy finding. The written autopsy report is not available yet, but they plan to have one completed within 90 days.

So let that be the final word on Jaylon Ferguson – he didn’t die from COVID-19 vaccination. He died from a drug overdose.

Fact #2 : Jaylon Ferguson Was Found Unresponsive

The Baltimore police received a report of a “questionable death” at a home in Baltimore’s Harwood neighbourhood on Tuesday night, 21 June 2022.

When they arrived at around 11:25 PM, and they found Jaylon Ferguson unresponsive and being treated by medics.

The medics tried to resuscitate Ferguson but he never regained consciousness, and was pronounced death at the scene. Baltimore police spokeswoman Niki Fennoy said in a statement :

Once there, officers located 26-year-old Jaylon Ferguson, unresponsive, being treated by medics. Ferguson never regained consciousness and was pronounced dead on the scene by medics.

Fact #3 : Police Investigated His Death As Possible Drug Overdose

The Baltimore police stated that they did not suspect foul play in his death, and that there were no signs of trauma on his body.

However, they were investigating it as an “open questionable death“, and specifically looking into the possibility of a drug overdose, not the COVID-19 vaccine.

Jaylon Ferguson’s body was taken to the Baltimore medical examiner’s office early Wednesday morning, where an autopsy will be conducted to determine his cause of death.

We are not ruling anything out. We don’t determine cause of death, but we consider the possibility that it could be an overdose.

According to The Baltimore Banner, a friend who found Ferguson unresponsive told police at the scene that Ferguson told him earlier in the night that he was “Xanied up”, and an unidentified pink powder substance was found in a sock.

The friend also said that Ferguson had been going through a difficult time after the recent death of his grandmother, and a fire at his home in Owings Mills, and that he was suffering from depression.

Fact #4 : Jaylon Ferguson Was Likely Unvaccinated

Jaylon Ferguson is said to be unvaccinated against COVID-19. The COVID-19 vaccine is not mandatory in the United States, despite what anti-vaccination activists may claim.

While there is no official word on his vaccination status (due to NFL policy), here are the reasons why Ferguson is unlikely to be vaccinated :

NFL does not require players to be vaccinated against COVID-19. It however requires players to get tested.
Jaylon Ferguson tested positive for COVID-19 on Sept. 24, 2021, and missed the Ravens’ game against the Detroit Lions a few days later.
Under NFL protocols, fully-vaccinated players who test positive can return within 5 days, as long as they are asymptomatic and produce two negative tests 24 hours apart.
Under NFL protocols, unvaccinated players who test positive must quarantine for at least 10 days.
Ferguson missed three games and only returned to practice on October 13, 2021 – 19 days after he tested positive for COVID-19.

The length of his absence strongly suggests that he was one of the few unvaccinated players on the Ravens’ roster.

Short of an official statement by the NFL or Ferguson’s family, this is about as good as it gets, when it comes to evidence whether Jaylon was vaccinated or not.

Fact #5 : COVID-19 Vaccines Proven Safe + Effective

COVID-19 vaccines underwent massive clinical trials, and were only approved after they were proven to be safe and effective.
