Should be suing herself or Pfizer for having her son (probably) get the jab.

Young people dying of heart attacks. I expect to see a lot of lawsuits. But most of those suits will not be aimed at airlines.

The question is…why are 14 year olds having heart attacks on planes today?

Defibrillators don’t always work when the heart attack is severe enough. They didn’t help my dad any and EMTs tried for a while.

Defibrillators seldom work.even on a witnessed full arrest where cpr is started immediately. At least in my experience 35 years big city fire department.

It’s good it didn’t happen while they were still in Roatan. The main hospital burned down in April. The private hospitals require full payment and don’t take insurance. Who would she have sued then?

EC

That’s because of the laws that Congress has passed.
