Bronny James’s cardiac arrest has again raised the issue of how rare or frequent cardiac injury is in the aftermath of receiving an mRNA vaccine, especially among young males. Last Tuesday was the two-year anniversary of an incident during a bicycle race in Belgium, which might have already settled the issue had it been more widely known.

On August 15th, 2021, Yarno van Herck… began having shooting pains in his chest during a junior-division race in the Flemish town of Vorselaar… was 15 years old at the time. Two days earlier, he had received a first dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine.

However, it has returned, with shakes in his leg proving unbearable to play through.

While he says doctors have disagreed on the vaccine being the cause of the problem, he sees it as the obvious point of when he started struggling.

‘The first six months were horrendous, I was just at home, sleeping 18-20 hours a day,’ Woollaston told Metro.co.uk. ‘I couldn’t stand on my feet for more than a few minutes without feeling like I was going to pass out…
