    I wasn’t taking the piss with my ‘link?’ comment.
    Genuinely interested.
    Tbh even the author doesn’t post the link though!

    only thing I noticed quickly was they compare deaths under 35 to all deaths (including a 71 year old apparently)

    1. I'm very suspicious of the timing. An NFL player has a heart attack and then a very prominent anti-vaxer links an article saying there have been 1001 deaths.
    2. Who are these 1001 dead athletes and why hasn't the news been packed with stories about them. Both Christian Eriksen and Damar Hamlin survived but made international headlines I'd have thought at least a couple of the other 1598 would have made the news.
    3. It's NOT a paper. Its a "Letter to the Editor" of own website. He's used the Wiley Immunology logo (which is a Bona Fide scholarly Journal) because they've lifted that total unrelated graph from their. The Graph show excess mortality rates of 0-14 year old's from 27 European countries. I'm fairly certain none of those are pro-athletes.

    Cristian Eriksen was not vaccinated when he collapsed. Which rather undermines the stuff that was said at the time about the cause of his peril.

    Yeah
    I wasn’t interested because I think it’s accurate. I was interested because I’d seen it too and hadn’t been able to link to what I assumed, wrongly, would be some academic research.
    I too am sceptical

    It may just be journalists playing games and digging up all the incidents of sports people falling ill during games or training, but there does seem to be more of it than I ever remember being reported in the past. Enough to pique my interest.

    Deaths in sportspeople was reportedly increasing several years ago (pre covid)
    Can’t recall detail but read recommendations (Lauserne?) It was proper research too, not things like comparing deaths in under 35 athletes with deaths in anyone from any age that happens to have played a sport that this one seems closer to.
    A proper re study of the one years ago would be interesting though

    The young lad in Hornsea that died was at a time when there was a fair amount of news articles about seemingly healthy people passing suddenly. There seemed to be no single cause, and it is quite likely to be a combination of unrelated factors, or even data blips, and this was long before covid. It'd be more unusual if these things happened in a constant fashion.

    What on Earth was 'He' thinking? Same with the eyes that actually have to work upside down. Maybe 'He' was just having an off day when we were created?
