Skeptics on social media persistently spread unfounded claims suggesting that Hamlin’s health decline was due to the COVID-19 vaccine. Some of the reactions to his diagnosis were incredibly absurd.
During his announcement that he was cleared to play and would attempt a comeback to the NFL, Hamlin revealed the truth about his condition. However, at least one Twitter user went as far as to suggest that Hamlin was being bribed by “Big Pharma” to conceal the truth. Another individual even claimed that the person at the news conference wasn’t actually Hamlin. One doubter questioned Hamlin’s vaccine history, while another accused him of lying and toeing the “company line.”
Hamlin himself explained, “So the diagnosis of what pretty much happened to me was basically commotio cordis. It’s a direct blow at a specific point in your heartbeat that causes cardiac arrest and 5 to 7 seconds later you fall out.”
According to the American Heart Association, commotio cordis is a rare cause of cardiac arrest that occurs when a blow to the chest lands in just the wrong spot at the wrong time during the heartbeat. In such cases, CPR and an AED are the only ways to save someone’s life.
During a “Monday Night Football” game on January 2, Hamlin collapsed after tackling the Cincinnati Bengals’ Tee Higgins. Fortunately, his heartbeat was restored by the field personnel, and he was subsequently transported to the hospital.
To emphasize the severity of his condition, Hamlin mentioned that commotio cordis is one of the primary causes of death among young athletes. He expressed his personal commitment to making a difference in addressing this issue.
