'Fit and Healthy' Teen Put in Coma After Collapsing at Football Training
Liverpool Echo ^ | 30 JAN 2022 | Charlotte Hadfield

Kieran Prescot suffered from a cardiac arrest when he collapsed suddenly after football training

A "fit and healthy" teenager is lucky to be alive after he collapsed suddenly following football training.

Kieran Prescot, from St Helens, had just finished training for the Parkdale Sidac Celtic Under 18s team at Sutton Academy when he suffered from a cardiac arrest.

The 17-year-old was rushed to Whiston Hospital and put into an induced coma after being given CPR by staff at the training ground and nearby leisure centre.

Mum Sara Jones, 41, told the ECHO: "It was a normal day, I'd dropped him off at football training at Sutton Academy.

"The training was due to come to an end and usually he would be one of the first ones out because he normally goes to training for another team afterwards.

"I was with one of the other mums, we parked next to each other in the car park. We were sat in the car because it was quite cold, chatting away as normal.

"She got a phone call from her son, he said Kieran had collapsed and we needed to go over to the pitch but obviously by the time I got there they were doing chest compressions on him.

"It was quite a shock to be honest. I had my 15-year-old daughter with me so she witnessed all of that. It was heartbreaking."

Sara said football coach Ian Morley initially started administering CPR before Craig Milligan from Sutton Leisure Centre took over until an ambulance arrived.

She said she would like to thank everyone who stepped in to help Kieran and helped to save his life, from the staff at the football club and the leisure centre, to his team mates, manager of the football team Kev Flannery and football coach Alan Leyland.

Sara said: "There were so many people involved, it was a lot of team effort.

"He's been playing football since he was 12. He's very fit and healthy, even the lads on his team were quite shocked.

"He's the fittest one on the team, he doesn't go out drinking, he doesn't smoke, so we would never expect something like that to have happened."

Kieran spent 24 hours in an induced coma at Whiston Hospital before doctors started to bring him around.

Sara said: "When I've spoken to the doctors and staff at the hospital they said he's got an out of rhythm heart beat, I can't remember the exact words they used.

"It's where his heart goes out of rhythm so he's got to have further scans at Broadgreen Hospital."

Sara said: "They might need to put an internal defibrillator in so it will keep his heart beating at a normal rate so if it goes out of sync it will give it a little shock.

“A typical modern candidate for a heart attack.”

Fifteen years ago the nephew of my next door neighbor dropped dead of a heart attack during track practice. An autopsy reveals he had a congenital heart issue that his family was not aware of.

Pete Maravich was born with a missing left coronary artery, the doctors said it was a miracle he even made it 40.

The COVID-19 Storyline is the Greatest Scam in World History — The Truth is This is a ‘Pandemic of the Vaccinated’

Wayne Allyn Root / Jan 30

https://townhall.com/columnists/wayneallynroot/2022/01/30/the-covid19-storyline-is-the-greatest-scam-in-world-history—the-truth-is-this-is-a-pandemic-of-the-vaccinated-n2602554

Excerpt, but please read it all:

In Germany, the most draconian COVID-19 mandates and restrictions in the world were sold to the public with false data. Just like in America, the German government labeled this a “pandemic of the unvaccinated.” They claimed up to 90% of the infected and dead were unvaccinated. Newspaper investigations have found that none of this was true. The government simply classified every sick or dying person as “unvaccinated.” Government officials are apologizing, blaming the “mistake” on a “software error.”

In Alberta, Canada, the government published, then quickly deleted health data exposing that almost 60% of the COVID-19 victims classified as “unvaccinated” were actually among the vaccinated. It turns out everyone who got sick, was hospitalized or died within two weeks of getting any vaccine (the first jab, or second, or third) was counted as “unvaccinated.”

I’ll bet you didn’t know the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention play the exact same trick here in the USA. They know most of the COVID-19 deaths and injuries, not to mention deaths from the vaccine itself (mostly heart attacks) will occur within 14 days of any jab. So, everyone that gets sick or dies in that period is counted as “unvaccinated.”

The most perfect control group ever is the U.S. military. Every young soldier got the COVID-19 vaccine in the past year. To follow the results is the very definition of SCIENCE. Military whistleblowers have come forward with Department of Defense medical data showing since the start of the vaccine program cancer is up about 300% among military members; female infertility is up 500%; miscarriages are up by 300%; and there was an astronomical 1000% increase in neurological disorders from 82,000 to 863,000 in one year.

These are young men and women who were in perfect health ... until the vaccines. It appears the vaccines are literally crippling our national defense.

“At least 7 teens have died playing football this year

In the earliest death this season, 14-year-old Hezekiah Walters from Tampa, Florida, collapsed while running drills June 11 and died, Fox News reported.

Sixteen-year-old Peter Webb in Oklahoma and 17-year-old Alex Miller in West Virginia collapsed on the field during separate football games on the same night — Sept. 13, CBS News reported. Miller was taken to a hospital but later died, WOWK reported. A

Another 16-year-old, Kadin Roberts-Day, collapsed during an indoor football practice Sept. 4, according to KCTV. He reportedly went into cardiac arrest before dying.

Skylar Lasby, a 12-year-old seventh-grader in Michigan, died after collapsing during a no-contact drill Aug. 28, WZZM 13 reported. Lasby “suffered a sudden cardiac death from an abnormal heartbeat.”

Oh wait, all of these stories are from 2019 and this is just another moronic anti-vax post by someone who is almost certainly a chuckling liberal smiling as he tries to kill off conservatives.

On the day you are born God writes in the book, where, when and how He will take you home.

Once you don’t count massive strokes, heart attacks, sudden deaths, etc., as caused by the clot shot, your numbers lie.

The vax is so great as it is showing us the kids with hidden medical issues. Fantastic !

Is that a typo ? Or being funny.

How can ‘death by vaccine’ be for an unvaxxed person ?
