... is due to them having had the Covid Vaccine.
Anti-Vaxxers absolutely feast on 'research' and stories about Covid vaccines increasing heart inflammation (myocarditis)... its a feeding frenzy. Now they are jumping on what seems an increase in footballer heart issues.
An existing and significant anti-vax narrative is the number of footballers refusing jabs, as a proof point of their risk.
A few weeks back, an unreviewed and debunked paper on vaccine to myocarditis linkages was posted on the American Heart Foundations web-site.. and became a statement of fact. However strenuously the foundation refuted the paper's efficacy. Indeed Piers Corbyn and his mob were seen berating Chris Witty this week as they stormed a lecture he was providing.
Israeli studies are often used. But see below extract, which challenges concerns. But this is not going away.
"Some of the largest studies of myocarditis and the vaccine have been carried out in Israel, where the vast majority of the population have had the Pfizer vaccine. In one study of 5 million people, researchers identified 136 cases of myocarditis reported within one month of having a Pfizer vaccine, mostly in young men. Of these, 95% were mild, but one person died.
Overall, fully vaccinated people were about twice as likely to be diagnosed with myocarditis, compared with people who hadn’t been vaccinated. That compares with another study from Israel which found that in adults over 18, getting Covid-19 increases risk of myocarditis by 18 times — a far bigger increase in risk than from the vaccine. But in young men specifically, who are more at risk of myocarditis linked to the vaccine, this difference in risk may be smaller.
Another study of 2.5 million people aged over 16 in Israel found that 2 out of every 100,000 people who received at least one Pfizer jab developed myocarditis. This increased to almost 11 out of 100,000 among men aged 16—29. Overall, 76% of the cases of myocarditis were mild, and 22% were moderate, which suggests that only around 2 in a million young men developed serious myocarditis.
It’s important to remember that the overall risk is still low, and that the vast majority of cases of myocarditis were mild. People who are vaccinated also have a much lower risk of getting other serious complications caused by Covid-19."

Could also add, how many of them had previously had covid? It's said that you are x times more likely to suffer from heart problems due to covid than due to the vaccine. So 'if' there has been an increase in sportsmen having heart issues maybe it's because of covid and having the vaccine could help reduce those numbers - bet the anti-vaxxers would become strangely quiet if that turned out to be the case. |
That's precisely it, isn't it?
Celina had Covid, and then had some issues with pericarditis during his recovery. Assuming this wasn't an isolated occurrence, then of course it stands to reason that elite sportsmen are going to be most at risk of any heart-related aftereffects. |  |

FIFA report annually on sudden cardiac events with players. The last 12 months have seen nothing statistically different to the previous 10 years.
There is a false report claiming 500% increase the anti-vaxxers have jumped on. The 500% figure is based on Wikipedia entries, nothing more 🙄
FIFA have the Sudden Death Registry

I do enjoy the contradictory nature of the argument that footballers aren't getting the jab, for fear of its effects, while simultaneously pointing to footballers collapsing as being due to the vaccine.
Not to mention the really salient point that the player in question hadn't actually been vaccinated  |  |
