Re: Thoughts and prayers

cancelled their season last year. BEFORE vaccines? It was due to a study Ohio State conducted, and a VERY specific thing. Anyone remember? Remember how ticked we were they made the playoffs with so few games, and they started late?

15% of college athletes who got covid BEFORE vaccines, naturally, got the heart condition. Ohio State freaked out over this and almost cancelled their season.

Any vaccine side effects will also be covid side effects. If you want to play russian roulette, take a 15% chance with the natural infection, or something FAR less than that with the vaccine. You pick.

Here's the study/science fwiw:

Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Findings in Competitive Athletes Recovering From COVID-19 Infection

This study investigates the use of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging in competitive athletes who recovered from coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-10) to detect myocardial inflammation that would identify high-risk athletes for return to competitive play.

It is a statistically common occurrence with natural covid

infections, and seems to happen more in younger people with stronger immune systems. Their stronger reaction to the virus/vaccine causes them to have that issue where older people tend not to. You can get if from influenza and other nasty viruses. But there have been other studies. Most people don't even notice the problem, or if they do, it's mild. And it goes away without complications almost always. ALSO, there are many ways to diagnose the problem. MRI, just feeling bad and having symptoms, blood tests, and each way of diagnosing the condition has different levels of sensitivity. Generally, it's accepted that an MRI provides the most accurate, and sensitive diagnosis. So sensitive some people can be diagnosed with it on an MRI at any time.

Anyway, it is a common side effect of covid, and they estimate 15% of college aged kids get the condition, and most never know. And since the vaccine IS covid, well, it's also a common reaction among that age group as well to the vaccine. Even with a sensitive MRI test though, it is statistically FAR less common in vaccinated teens than teens who get natural covid.

Bottom line is it's not a big deal. 50% of people vaccinated will not die from the vaccine. 100% of them will die from something though, some day.

Way I see it, personally, you're going to get covid eventually. The vaccine contains 100% pure covid spike protein mRNA, the original Wuhan flavor anyway. It is the same natural process of a covid infection, without the payload of the virus. On paper it's really safer than other vaccines. But there are some side effects, and every single one is also found with natural covid infections. That's because the vaccine IS covid. A free infection without the pneumonia and hospital stay. Might as well get it. It won't stop covid. It won't keep you from getting covid, or even getting sick. But your body recognizing the spike protein is enough to give you a leg up fighting it. It's not new, and it increases the odds of a milder illness. It's like getting covid naturally, and that first infection is the one that will get you dead or in a hospital more than subsequent ones.
