The Athletes Aren't Ok -- This isn't normal

In Orange County, Florida there is a brand new policy for the current academic school year relating to student athletics. Starting from September 2021, all student-athletes are required to undergo an electrocardiogram and be cleared by a cardiologist prior to playing on a sports team at any of the county’s schools.

In a phone call with the Director of the Athletics Dept at an Orange County High School, he informed me that the policy was put in place by multiple counties in Florida, and the trend is picking up steam. He revealed that it’s become not uncommon for students to be identified as high risk for cardiac arrest and sudden death via these screenings. This coming May through August, there will be ECG events on campus for the convenience of the students.

Meanwhile, in New Jersey, a family medical practice posted an official notice stating that when signing student athletic health forms, IF a student has been vaccinated, they can ONLY get cleared by the clinic to compete if they undergo lab tests and possibly an echocardiogram to ensure there are no signs of heart damage. Unvaccinated students need not undergo the extra tests. I personally verified this to be the case.

The horrifying list of damaged and dead athletes from the past year is growing. There are journalists doing constant research and compiling stories so that we have access to this information, and unfortunately from January 3, 2021, through March 19, 2022, which is when they last updated the site, the list is up to 779 athletes. I recommend giving the site a look and reading the description of their research.
