FIFA sudden death registry states "there's been no numerical or statistical increase in sudden death cases since 2019" SCD rate among young US athletes in 2021-2022 was comparable to pre-pandemic estimates. https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2023.02.13.23285851v1 https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-coronavirus-fifa-idUSL1N2SL1NJ/ https://www.aspetar.com/journal/viewarticle.aspx?id=552 https://www.factcheck.org/2023/01/scicheck-no-surge-in-athlete-deaths-contrary-to-widespread-anti-vaccine-claims/
