Everybody seems to be getting blood clots
[Hot Air] Coincidences do happen. I realize that.

Confirmation bias is a real thing—we tend to notice things that reinforce our preconceived notions.

But damn. Cruising through Twitter I saw not one, not two, but three stories about prominent people being treated for life-threatening blood clots all posted within an hour. And, of course, some very prominent people who you would not expect to have heart attacks (can’t think of any names right now, can you?) have been collapsing before our eyes.

Yes, confirmation bias is real. I could be just noticing things, although I really haven’t been thinking about blood clots or heart attacks without prompting.

In a world with 7 billion people, even improbably things happen.

But damn, there sure SEEM to be a lot of prominent people with serious circulatory problems all of a sudden. And they tend to be young. It’s not like getting the news that a 90 year old dropped over dead. These are often kids and young adults.

#6 Honestly we've reached Unit 731 level of behavior by our 'experts'. If we had a real republic, the legislative branch should be preparing the legal ground work for crimes against humanity tribunals.

#8 ^ Now there is condunrum for Black-America which overwhelmingly votes Democrat. The party that supported the KKK, Jim Crow laws, funded the racist run PPH and conception to 9 month abortions.

BTW: Look up the abortion demographics. It seems the Democrats pro abortion agenda has eliminated about 4.5+++ millon Black births.

#10 There was a great deal of concern voiced at one point about low levels of vaccination — and high levels of vaccination refusal — in the African-American population.

On the other hand, the pressure on athletes, both professional and amateur, to get the shots was really high.
