A death certificate obtained by the Associated Press for Lynnette “Diamond” Hardaway of the Diamond & Silk political commentary duo reportedly indicates she died from a heart condition. Hardaway died January 8 of what AP indicates was “heart disease due to chronic high blood pressure.” She was 51.

Just a daily reminder that "people are saying it on Twitter" is not a valid source of information, because it apparently needs repeating.

[Tickle]

4. Rabid anti-vaxxer gets COVID and they claim she "died suddenly" from a heart attackakakakakak?

10. I saw what you did there.

5. And her sister claimed it was the result of the COVID vaccine

Nothing is too sacred to use to spread vile propaganda.

8. Oh yeah, they both are/were just . . . out there

I'm just highlighting it because information with no factual basis was spread far and wide with little regard for whether it was true or not.

Bugs me.

6. Death by heart disease is the very antithesis of "died suddenly".

7. it was reported that she had covid complications. heart issues are not uncommon. could be both.

9. I think the word for it is "co-morbidity."

IIRC, heart disease was listed among the co-morbidities of COVID from the get-go, along with obesity, lung diseases like asthma, diabetes, etc. She had at least two of them, obesity being the other. The COVID may not have directly killed her, but it probably sped up the other issues.

11. I can't imagine dying at 51 years old, it seems awfully young to me.

Especially from something like heart disease.

I’m about 8 years away from being 51, but I can’t imagine letting myself die from heart disease. Depending on what source you reference, 80-90% of heart disease is preventable. She could very have fallen into the 10-20% of heart disease that isn’t preventable, in which case I apologize for my harsh judgement…

12. Especially for something that could have been managed and treated

to prevent the heart disease in the first place.
