OAN, though, is doing something entirely different. On Friday, the network ran a segment where reporter Pearson Sharp called on Liberals to get vaccinated, saying the shots kill people.

During the segment, Sharp claimed, “Young athletes are another prime group to be targeted by this deadly vaccine with 500% more soccer players in the E.U. dropping dead from heart attacks than one year ago — 500%. Who is actually braindead enough to think that this is just a coincidence when the FDA knows Pfizer and Moderna’s vaccine to cause heart attacks. This is a pandemic of the ignorant, and it’s killing our country.”

This debunked Republican conspiracy theory has roots in far-Right Austrian websites. Still, the idea has been pushed by Senator Ron Johnson and basketball Hall of Famer John Stockton.

Sharp then closed with his most insane comment yet:

“So, for all of you progressives and Democrats and radical leftists out there. Do us all a favor, please, and go get vaccinated. In fact, don’t stop there. Get double vaccinated, and be sure to get all your boosters. All three or four of them. Why stop there? If more is better— get five, six, get 10 boosters. All the rest of us sane, freedom-loving Americans are counting on you to get your injections. The survival of our country depends on it.”

8. Politifact: There's no proof athletes collapsed with heart issues because of COVID-19 vaccination

Just in case:

Politifact: There’s no proof athletes collapsed with heart issues because of COVID-19 vaccination

"To date, I am not aware of a single COVID vaccine-related cardiac complication in the professional sports," said Matthew Martinez, a sports cardiologist who works with the National Football League, National Basketball Association, National Hockey League and Major League Soccer and who is the director of sports cardiology at Morristown Medical Center in New Jersey.

The same goes for Jonathan Kim, an associate professor of medicine and chief of sports cardiology at Emory University in Atlanta. "I am not aware of any reports that vaccines in athletes are causing cardiac issues," he said. He called the HighWire video "a classic example of disinformation."

9. Dumb shit . . ..

it's your effing cult dropping dead.

[BGBD]

10. How many soccer players in the EU die of a heart attack in a given year? 1? Less?

So if one pro soccer player died of a heart attack in the past 5 years the average is .2 per year....so if 1 player dies you can say the rate of heart attacks is 500% higher than average for that year.
