What is it with the board and not being able to voice concerns??
I’ve had three vaccines, I’m not anti vax but heart issues in young men is worrying. Evidence is still short and needed, it doesn’t stop concerns.
Footballers back in the day seemed to have a ‘hole in the heart’ problems, they are now tested for various heart issues. I can’t believe Stuani has got this far in his career and hasn’t had a full heart mot.
People can be die hard fans of Boro and yet, believe it or not have concerns. It’s about discussion, opinions. Not shooting people down at the first opportunity.

I'm not shooting anyone down. I'll bet we've all been touched by heart disease in one way or another but for someone to mention Covid-19 a few posts in as an 'opinion' is irresponsible without knowing the medical history of the individual concerned or indeed having any scientific knowledge linking Covid-19 with cardiac issues. 'Young' athletes have suffered heart conditions in the past long before Covid-19 was even known about.
And I never even mentioned vaccines of which I've had three, same as you.

I don’t believe it is irresponsible. He/She is not professing to be Stuani’s Clinician or even a doctor.
Yes they have, when heart checks weren’t common amongst athletes and footballers. They are now. Most things are brought to light before anything happens. There does seem to be a link, it should be investigated and evidence gathered. Sorry for being irresponsible for having that opinion.

You've stated there 'seems to be a link' as an opinion. Are you a qualified medical practitioner? I can have an opinion that Covid-19 is linked to increased cases of cancer but it wouldn't mean I was right. Let the experts do the investigations and evidence gathering, non-qualified 'opinions' just feed the tin-foil hatted conspiracy theorists.

Yes, it’s an opinion. I am not a doctor.
I have stated why it’s my opinion. Athletes and footballers are tested more than ever before for heart conditions. Yet too many (again in my opinion, again, I am not a doctor) are falling ill with heart conditions.
Let’s have no opinions on anything till the science gathers there evidence. Nutrition, climate, health, environment.

There's a fine line between an opinion, particularly a medical one, and a conspiracy theory.
Scientists have informed me about global warming.
Medical experts have long promoted the importance of a healthy and balanced diet.
Read this, it's enlightening.
Why super athletes like Christian Eriksen suffer heart attacks
Sudden cardiac arrest is caused by abnormalities of the heart that remained undiagnosed

Dreadful news. Hopefully he is back on his feet in no time, have no doubt he will give the biggest fight of his life 100% as he has given everything else before that.

Covid can cause long term damage to the heart, nothing to do with vaccines (another argument......
). Top athletes, training, having to be as fit as possible, surely must be in a high risk group for this type of thing happening......vaccinated or not.
Anyhow hope he gets sorted and gets back to full health - definitely a Boro cult hero

More research is clearly needed into the effects of covid and heart problems, especially in young men.
And I’ll speculate and have an opinion on anything I desire, thank you.

Little bit tactless to speculate given the context of this conversation, surely?
