Global Research Wants to Hear From You!


***


I did my internal medicine residency at the University of Washington in Seattle. In the 1980’s it was the most competitive internal medicine training program in the country as more medical students ranked it #1 on their list than all others. One great privilege of the program was to work with the Seattle King County elite “MEDIC ONE” paramedic units which led the way on out-of-hospital resuscitation research. The Seattle King County cardiac arrest statistics are among the most accurate in the United States.


It is well known that COVID-19 vaccine myocarditis is asymptomatic in about half of victims and that cardiac arrest is a common initial presentation even years after injection. Hulscher et al have shown when autopsies are performed in the vaccinated, suspected myocarditis is confirmed to be the cause of death. Sadly, in these cases there is no chance for antecedent screening, detection, or management.





King County has reported very high COVID-19 vaccination rates with administration of 6.96 million doses in a population of 2.27 million residents. This equates to 3.1 doses per person.






The year-end Public Health Seattle and King County Annual 2023 Emergency Medical Services Division Report discloses the full year ending 2022 since it takes time to gather outcomes through hospitalization. As you can see there has been an alarming 18.5% increase in the rates of out of hospital cardiac arrest from pre-pandemic years. The big jump up occurred in 2021 with rollout of mass, indiscriminate COVID-19 vaccination. Among these cases who get the best EMS care in the world, there is only a 16% survival rate.





These data are a call for among other strategic initiatives, to immediately merge the vaccine administration records with cardiac arrest data and investigate patterns by time and cumulative doses received.
