Are nonrev friends and families required to be vaccinated as well? Can’t seem to find an answer. Thanks.

Ok Dr. Goose, do you even know anything about medicine?? An “enlarged heart” and “fluid around the heart” are extremely generic, layperson terms. Myocardial hypertrophy and pericardial effusion are very serious, specific conditions and can have many different etiologies. Some longer term and some very quick. Diseases such as congestive heart failure can cause chronic hypertrophy over a long period of time. However, if someone stabs you in the center of your chest with a knife, you’re gonna have fluid around your heart in about 10 seconds. Granted, the cause of death of this young man has not been determined according to the websites I’ve checked, so whether the vaccine played a role is still in question. However I find it highly suspect that an otherwise healthy 13 y/o male died suddenly in his sleep within a few days after receiving the vaccine. I’m sure you can agree it’s worth investigating since myocarditis has been a recurring finding.

FWIW, there is an FAA advisory from March 2021 for AMEs. They cannot issue a medical to a pilot and must defer if the pilot has any ongoing complications after contracting CV19. How one handles that is……
