"A study found that people with any type of COVID-19 infection were ️ twice as likely to have a major cardiac event, such as #heartattack, #stroke or even death, for up to️ three years after diagnosis."

️️️ (THIS IS KEY POINT)
"The risk was significantly higher for patients hospitalized for COVID-19 and equal to a previous history of heart disease."

Note to self: don't take up triathalons (or swimming) without a very extensive heart workup... Particularly in the COVID-19 world.

I hope it gives enough of a lead to anyone who has reason to need this info.

"Placing #defibrillator pads on the chest and back, rather than the usual method of putting two on the chest, increases the odds of surviving an out-of-hospital #CardiacArrest by more than two-and-a-half times."

“... you want energy that goes from one pad to the other through the heart,” said Mohamud Daya, MD, professor of EM at the OHSU School of Medicine & corresponding author of the study."

It does not take a rocket scientist (but evidently it takes more than hastily granted tenure at Florida's flagship university) to understand that vaccine protection depends not only on efficacy, but also on uptake, of the vaccine. Florida's surgeon general, who was awarded tenure at one of the top public universities in the country, University of #Florida, recommends against getting a #COVID booster unless you are over 65 or #immunocompromised. That is not a recipe for public health success. He and the king, I mean governor, repeatedly say they are protecting Floridians from #BigPharma experimenting on them. However, with the likely connection between immune system dysfunction and past covid infections, it is the people who remain unboosted or unvaccinated who are being experimented on. We won't know whether covid is behind more infections of #RSV, #flu, #pox, #CardiacArrest, #strokes, #PulmonaryEmbola, etc, until more people are infected. Florida's surgeon general is therefore putting us through a clinical trial as the control group with his ill-informed #eugenics recommendation.

A new study of #CardiacArrest survivors suggests that almost 40% of people undergoing #CPR do have memories, dreamlike experiences or some type of perception even when unconscious. What’s more, brain waves show signs of activity suggesting awareness sometimes up to an hour as they are being brought back to life. #NDE

Fascinating... Looks like a robust effect, though we've fooled ourselves before. Any comments? #Science #CardiacArrest #Resuscitation #EmergencyMedicine #CPR
