Anti-Vaxxers Exploit Damar Hamlin’s Crisis With Unfounded Covid-19 Vaccine Claims
Forbes ^ | January 5, 2022 | Ken Masing

Posted on 01/10/2023 9:32:30 PM PST by DoodleBob

With Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin in critical condition after suffering a cardiac arrest, guess what two different radio personalities, Charlie Kirk and Dr. Drew, decided to do perhaps separately. Did they mention how the blow to the chest that Hamlin suffered during the Bills’ televised Monday Night Football game against the Cincinnati Bengals could have led to the player’s cardiac arrest? Did they mention the different possible causes of cardiac arrest? Did they mention how unusual such a situation was, so unusual that the National Football League (NFL) ended up postponing the game as thousands of people watched stunned? Not exactly.

Kirk, who is the founder and President of the conservative youth group Turning Point USA, that’s been supporting Donald Trump, tweeted, “This is a tragic and all too familiar sight right now: Athletes dropping suddenly.” And Dr. Drew, the media personality whose full name is Drew Pinsky, MD, posted the following on Twitter: “So disturbing. Another athlete who dropped suddenly.” All too familiar? Another athlete who dropped suddenly? Where’s the data supporting the claim that athletes “dropping suddenly” have become a common occurrence? What the heck were both of them talking about?

Well, it seemed like a bunch of people on Twitter knew exactly what Kirk and Pinsky were talking about in their tweets....Katrine Wallace, PhD, an epidemiologist at the University of Illinois Chicago, School of Public Health, told Pinksy, “It’s not too late to delete this tweet.” Comedian and author Jolenta Greenberg tweet-responded, “Stop insinuating such horrible misinformation.” Tyler Black, MD, an emergency psychiatrist, admonished, “You know exactly what you're doing here, and it's despicable.” And baseball writer Keith Law asked, “Are you really trying to exploit a tragedy like this?” .

I don't know what caused Hamlin's collapse. And I pray he keeps improving.

But when a high production quality video was shot and uploaded about ONE HOUR after Hamlin went down, by Dr "It's not the vaxx", it makes you wonder WHY?

What's DOUBLY curious, is how it amassed almost 10MM views and an equally impressive number of comments, all using meticulous grammar.

Things like this is why so many folks are done with authority bias.

while there is a 10-20% it wasn’t the vaxx...

EVERYONE watching thought about the vaxx immediately.

I’ve seen corporations do a version of this - incessantly lie to the employees and then scold them for being distrustful.

EVERYTHING the public was told about the plandemic was a lie, safety issues denied, informed consent made impossible, and then suddenly the public is being scolded for doubting the ‘official story’.

They still haven’t said his heart is fine even though you know they have run all the tests. Their silence is deafening.

C’mon people, they quoted an epidemiologist, a comedian, a psychiatrist and a baseball writer. You know, real “experts”.

“Did they mention how unusual such a situation was...”

It USED to be unusual. Now it is almost commonplace. The author didn’t mention that.

I’m guessing arrhythmia brought on by sternal velocity contact

Nothing to do with vaxx

What he said is exactly true in terms of what is known and has happened well before “the jab.”

But he cannot say the vax did not contribute, as he did.

Nor can this be called “unfounded” unless Damar never took a vax.

Here’s a pre-vax article describing chest blows and death in young men.

The question is did his case involve vax-mediated myocarditis, did that contribute? It’s not unfounded to ask.

Its like seeing nails when you have a new hammer. Every time somebody has a heart problem it is not necessarily the jab, just as every time somebody feels a little sick or coughs its not always covid-19.

Point is the jabs were touted as being an effective vaccine and they weren't. Instead they have had a truck load of bad side effects including heart problems, and we don't even know how bad the long term effects of the jabs are. OBVIOUSLY we should ban them...but there is too many people both politically and financially invested in their "success" and they have been downright EVIL and despicable in how they now only shill for them but attempt to force them through law and use government coercion to even censor valid concerns. There needs to be consequences for these horrible actors.

Did they mention how unusual such a situation was used to be - before mandatory vaxxing was introduced, so unusual that the National Football League (NFL) ended up postponing the game as thousands of people watched stunned?

How can they say unfounded claims when studies have shown the mRNA vaccine can cause the aortic wall’s fragility and dissection. It was a routine football play that happens dozens of times every game. No proof it was the vaccine, but no proof it couldn’t have been. And the fact we haven’t routinely seen players collapsing and needing CPR in the past makes it highly suspicious timing.

If anti vaxxers are “exploiting” this incident, in what way are they “exploiting?” Are they making big bucks? Are they getting book deals? Are they getting interviews with Hannity? Mr. Masing, please, explain how they are exploiting this!

No one exploited his tragedy, rather people asked if he was vaccinated. It’s a legitimate question. If he was vaccinated, then the next question will be did the vaccine cause the tragedy?

Given what we know from the Twitter files, I can just imagine the coordination between the White House, Pfizer, and the media, in getting these types of articles written and published. Although we suspected such machinations in the past, once you see how “the sausage” is made, it is hard to unsee it.
