While Pneumo deaths in summer have been trending down, Heart Failure deaths have been trending up. A virus has been spreading gradually, during summers, since '12, interfering with other respiratory virus, but instead of causing pneumonia, it causes cardiovascular death./1

@jejebob77 @ShaneAKAProp @USMortality @NicHulscher No social distancing and no mask in Stockholm Oct 2020 nightlife. 🙄

@ShaneAKAProp @stevin2021 @USMortality @NicHulscher trust in authorities and usually accept that if authorities suggests something, that's warrant to believe that there's good reason to do accept, and this includes the suggestions on getting vaccinated.

🚨56% OF AMERICANS NOW BELIEVE COVID SHOTS CAUSED MASS DEATHS We are the majority now. The public is waking up and it CANNOT BE STOPPED.

@jsm2334 Did they discard all cases with a positive Sars-cov-2 PCR test? How convenient.

🏮 Another population-level study finds no evidence whatsoever of that healthy younger individuals given COVID-19 vaccines had increased risk of "dying suddenly", i.e. with sudden cardiac deaths. Researchers in Toronto just published a study in PLOS Medicine assessing whether risk of sudden cardiac death was increased after COVID-19 vaccination in healthy young people 12-50yrs old. The study was a population-based matched case-control study from a cohort of 14,966,193 residents of Ontario, Canada, focusing on the subset of 6,365,451 who were <50yrs and "healthy", with no medical history of cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, mental illness, dementia, COPD, IBD, chronic liver or kidney disease, autoimmune disease, or alcohol or illicit drug use. Cases included 4,803 individuals from that cohort who "died suddenly" between April 1, 2021 and June 30, 2023, meaning they either died outside the hospital or died in ER or within 24hr of admission with indication of cardiac arrest, sudden death or arrhythmia but no indication of trauma, mental illness or substance use. Controls included 24,030 individuals matched 5:1 to cases in terms of age, sex, geographic area, and neighborhood income quintile, with their index data set to death date of matched case. After matching, all of these variables were well-balanced between cases and controls. The primary analysis was a conditional logistic regression to assess association of case/control status with vaccination status (any vaccine), with covariate-adjustment for confounders including COVID-19 infection, influenza vaccination, number of SARS-CoV-2 PCR tests to estimate COVID healthcare utilization, and history of asthma, hypertension and mood/anxiety disorders. Many sensitivity analyses were done including separate analyses for vaccine types, focusing on the 6wk period after vaccination, focusing only on ER/hospital deaths with cause well-documented, excluding any opioid deaths, focusing on <=40yrs old, plus a secondary self-controlled case series comparing the 6wk after doses 1/2/3 to other time periods to perform an assessment free from any subject-level residual confounders such as healthcare utilization or other factors related to healthy vaccinee effect. In the primary analysis, 77.1% of controls received any COVID-19 vaccine before the index date, while only 67.4% of cases did, which resulted in an adjusted odds ratio of 0.57 (95% CI 0.53-0.61), suggesting a 43% reduced risk of sudden death in the vaccinated group. All secondary analyses found similar results, with vaccinated having lower risk of sudden death than unvaccinated, with some statistically significant and some not. None of the analyses had any indication whatsoever that risk of sudden death was increased after vaccination, either in the short or long term. This validates results from two earlier UK studies using self-controlled case series that found no increased risk of sudden cardiac death within 4wks (Nafilyan et al. 2023 Nature Communications PMID: 36973247) or 12wks (Xu et al. 2024 Vaccine PMID: 38388239) after COVID-19 vaccination. So, in spite of all of the repeated claims on social media and in videos purporting major increased risk in sudden cardiac death after COVID-19 vaccination, the population-level data continue to strongly refute these claims.

@OraculodeCR Como si CR no se beneficia de acero chino, autos eléctricos chinos, maquinaria china, componentes electrónicos chinos, celulares chinos, computadoras chinas, zapatos chinos, ropa china, etc. 🤡

El gobierno comunista chino debe entender que la relación comercial con Costa Rica es profundamente deficitaria para nuestro país: importamos mucho más de lo que exportamos. Por lo tanto, NO corresponde dirigirse a nuestro gobierno con tono de imperio. Además, conviene recordar que los hermanos Arias ya no pesan en el espectro político nacional. Hoy, cuando se mencionan sus nombres, la mayoría de los costarricenses los asocian más con cuestionamientos y episodios de corrupción que con liderazgo. Así que, cuando se dirija a nuestros gobernantes hágalo con respeto ! Fotografía de la arrogante y prepotente embajadora china Wang Xiaoyao. -

@ShaneAKAProp @USMortality @NicHulscher Claiming you know how swedes behaved in public during pandemic, based only on their housing preferences and educational level is an speculation. Support your claim that swedes did keep social distancing and did not listen to social media disinformation with facts.

@stevin2021 @USMortality @NicHulscher How is it speculation? They have around 50% of the population live alone. They are also ranked 10th in education. That is not speculation, that is fact.

@ShaneAKAProp @USMortality @NicHulscher x.com/i/status/20318…

@stevin2021 @USMortality @NicHulscher They also rank 10th for Education, so are less likely to listen to social media / misinformation bullshit. And realise, that if things are suggested they try to adhere to them where possible. Sadly, other countries seem to lack in the education dept.

@ShaneAKAProp @USMortality @NicHulscher Collective immunity can be cuantified by looking at the incidence of covid antibodies. Sars-cov-2 seroprevalence studies in Sweden in 2021 support what I am say. What you are saying are just speculations about Swedish behavior.

@ShaneAKAProp @USMortality @NicHulscher Ignore the fact that your comment does not apply to most of the Swedish population. During 2020 & 2021, most people in Sweden went to school, college or work, spreading covid and developing natural immunity. The elderly are still a minority even in Sweden.

@USMortality @NicHulscher Herd inmunity, from no lockdowns, protected swedes from catching and spreading covid from the recently vaxxed.

@NicHulscher It’s funny because how do you explain Sweden?

@federicoalves Con sólo ver las estadísticas de desempleo, nunca escogería migrar a Finlandia.

No le gusta la vida en Finlandia.

@ClareCraigPath Gibraltar was the only place in the world where the new covid daily cases were separated between vaxxed and unvaxxed. x.com/i/status/14983…

Remember when the age groups of peak cases aligned with the booster rollout in Gibraltar?

@CanalRedAmLat 🤥 El gobierno se CR no ha si quiera propuesto establecer bases militares en su territorio. Mentirosa.

🇺🇸 Mientras Estados Unidos abre frentes en Palestina, Irán y otros conflictos, en América Latina algunos gobiernos piden bases militares y más presencia del Comando Sur. ¿Seguridad o alineamiento con el imperio?

🔴 #NoticiasTrivisión | La Embajada de Estados Unidos en Costa Rica felicitó al país por la apertura de una Oficina de Innovación, Comercio e Inversión en Jerusalén, destacando su aporte a la atracción de inversiones y la proyección comercial internacional.

@Manuel_Tovar_R Un país que no representa ni el 1% de nuestro comercio internacional. 🤦

🇨🇷🇮🇱 Costa Rica abrirá oficina de innovación, comercio e inversión en Jerusalén.

@danielsuchar Falso. La exportaciones en enero 2025 fueron superiores. Hubo una disminución. Se vienen tiempos difíciles.

#CostaRica Empezamos el año con muy buen pie !!!... Creciendo frente al 2025 !!... #Exportaciones #Economia #FInanzas #FInanzasPublicas larepublica.net/noticia/export…

@Elguardiancr Falso. En enero del 2025 las exportaciones fueron de $1.553 millones, mayores a lo exportado en enero 2026. Medio mentiroso.

Exportaciones de bienes superan $1.500 millones en enero. Según datos de PROCOMER. elguardian.cr/exportaciones-…

@danielsuchar Si a un huésped le roban sus pertenecias en un hotel, el hotel tiene que hacerse responsable. Para evitar los robos los hoteles entonces contratan guardas de seguridad, y el costo se vuelve parte de sus gastos operativos. Igual debe hacer un banco. Nada de que alarmarse.

Esto es NEFASTO para el pais, pues la experiencia de otros paises indica que el Ciber-Crimen se frota las manos con estos proyectos y mas bien, se incrementan aun mas y por otro lado, las TASAS DE INTERES subiran, pues esas "Estafas", las pagaremos todos larepublica.net/noticia/bancos…

@danielsuchar Al contrario, buena iniciativa. Los bancos tomarán mejores iniciativas para prevenir las estafas.

#CostaRica TIRO EN EL PIE si esta locura avanza ! pues el CAMINO AL INFIERNO esta repleto de buenas intenciones ! Las estafas empezaran a dispararse, los bancos obligados a pagar cualquier cosa y por ende, LAS TASAS DE INTERES SUBIRAN ! Resumen: TODO MAL teletica.com/politica/aprob…
