47-year-old Idaho mayor dies after collapsing at town hall event

He probably traveled to California once and caught the jab

They all got it, and then told their constituents they didn't and it was an evil ploy by the left.

Oh they got the vax, they just won’t admit it. It’s important to look as dumb as their voters, otherwise folks will tag them as “upiddy”.

Not all of Idaho is as it’s portrayed

Nonono, politicians only feed into science denial to keep their voter base uneducated and untrusting of others. Behind closed doors, their families are fully vaccinated because the only people they care about are their immediate family.

Don’t worry those of us who got the vaccine gave them the effects through shedding… 😂 

Oh no, the politicians get every single vaccine possible, it's the workers and children they want to keep sick and at deaths door.

But many bought the vaccine passport without taking the shot…

yeah my friend have sclerosis because of a repeated covid infection that damaged his brain. He's better now with medication but still, life changing event. My friend is 25.

But in fairness, it's really only worse for the other people in your life to be 47 versus 97, didn't really matter for you. Ticket punched.

You're a young 'un. Lots of us know we're more than halfway done.

There's also the classic that life is just an ever growing list of things you'll do for the last time.

Actually the more morbid take is you never know if this is your last day

Time is the only currency we spend without knowing how much we have.

An aneurysm can absolutely f*** your shit up with no warning. Grant Imahara from myth busters died at 49 from an aneurysm

Death is a lot more random than we like to consider, generally. A healthy 30 year old can have an aneurysm and never wake up, an incredibly obese person that chainsmokes and never exercises can live into their 90s. You can fall out of a plane and walk away without any broken bones, or you can bump your head on the kitchen counter because you tripped on your kids' toy and it's lights out for good. It's important to maintain your health and plan for your future, but it is also important to never forget that any hour can be your last. I never go to bed angry or leave for work angry at my partner. I always make sure the last thing I said was "I Love You". I work in road construction so I am especially conscious that someone looking at their phone could kill me in less than a second and what I said to her when I left that morning will forever be the last thing she ever heard from me. Or, I can have a safe career for decades and then have an aneurysm on a random afternoon and be dead before I hit the pavement. Your health can improve or worsen your chances, but those dice are constantly rolling for all of us every day of our lives. You can improve your odds, but in the end, nobody has ever made it out alive. Your number comes when it comes. You don't need to sell all your toys and live like a crazy person, but you don't ever want to find yourself be lying on the concrete thinking it's all over and you regret how you lived.

Someone already said it was a cardiac event, but massive heart attacks in your forties is surprisingly common. They call them widowmakers because it's the age you leave behind a relatively young widow and probably kids It's also one of those things you don't see coming. There's not really a specific test that says you might have a heart attack any more than there is one for a stroke or aneurysm. Other things might point to you being susceptible but honestly sometimes they just come out of nowhere even if the docs think your heart is healthy

Look at all the downvotes from angry republican bots That’s how you can tell, the sarcasm… they’ve never been able to get the sarcasm right

Basically heart attack symptoms without the chest pain, but can include it. Cold sweats, feeling like you have the flu, indigestion, nausea, vomiting, sore joints. These symptoms are more common in women, the elderly and diabetics.

Nightmare fuel

Yep. They discovered a 25% blockage when I was 28. I take statins now. I had another scan a couple years ago and it’s luckily still at 25%. Well not luckily, statins are miracle drugs

Curse you for making me burst out laughing at this.

Come on bro lmao

*Good news, we’re gonna name a disease after you.*

Kim is the only person I know that has had cancer, thyroids, blood clots, open heart surgery, a stroke...

Some days I can’t make a deposit at all

Broken heart syndrome. It’s always a concern when giving bad news. The number of Code Blues I’ve had to respond to in the ICU waiting room… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Takotsubo_cardiomyopathy

I hope I die like this 😭🙏

exactly how i wanna die in like 70 years

I have a friend who unfortunately had to do the same thing for one of his best friends. Friend had a heart attack and as soon as he was on the ground, my friend started CPR with chest compressions at the right rhythm and beat, and had someone else call 911. Still died. That's a hard thing to go through whether or not it was your best friend, a stranger, a spouse, parent, work colleague. Trying to process trauma and grief in real time while giving an interview? That's a more coherent response than I would be able to give if I were in that situation.
