Florida Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo shared a study Friday alleging a link between COVID-19 vaccines and heart-related death, and became the first state surgeon general to recommend against COVID-19 vaccination for young men.
Ladapo’s study found there is an 84% increase in the relative incidence of cardiac-related deaths in men aged 18-39 years after they get an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine. His announcement and subsequent recommendation were both met with widespread criticism, including from other doctors who pointed out flaws in the research.
Today, we released an analysis on COVID-19 mRNA vaccines the public needs to be aware of. This analysis showed an increased risk of cardiac-related death among men 18-39. FL will not be silent on the truth.
