The Rise of the Medical Emergency Pt. 8
On the road again
You can’t hardly make it down the road these days without traffic backed up for some “medical emergency.” Who hasn’t witnessed an eery-looking single-vehicle crash in the time since the shots rolled out? I know I have.
It seems more and more of these “medical emergency” stories involve driving. Not this first one, though. Don’t worry. They airlifted the child from the school.
1) Pupil airlifted from Olchfa school in Swansea following medical emergency

“A secondary school pupil was airlifted to hospital after suffering a medical emergency during their lunch-break at school in Swansea.”
"At lunchtime today a pupil suffered a sudden medical emergency and was attended to by staff until the emergency services arrived at the school.”
Yeah high school’s a tough row to hoe. You never know what’s coming at you next.
Once the coroner gets involved, though, I might expect a little certainty, a little more clarity as to the cause of death. But, as Mark Crispin Miller pointed out in his recent stack, UK excess death figures show a large rise in deaths from “ill-defined” conditions (Source: markcrispinmiller.substack.com). So maybe much of this vague reporting has less to do with obfuscation and more to do with not studying the damn shots before giving them to billions of people and then being caught with your pants down when the strange and sudden deaths start.
Either which way, we’re left having not a damn clue what people actually died of in the meantime.
From the article: 'Brits are dying in their tens of thousands - and we don't really have any idea why'
(Source: mirror.co.uk)
“For March and February of this year, symptoms, signs and ill-defined is the leading cause of excess deaths, before that in January it was influenza and pneumonia.”
“[W]hilst a heavily ageing population may be throwing up yet another problem, it doesn’t quite explain why over 30,000 more people than usual died from May to December last year.”
No, it doesn’t. I have an idea of what might, though. The coroner, on the other hand? Baffled.
2) Coroner identifies 67-year-old man, says he died of medical emergency after crashing off roadway in Lindenhurst

“The coroner has identified a 67-year-old man who died of a medical emergency after police say his vehicle drove into oncoming traffic before traveling off Route 45 in Lindenhurst.”
OK, credit where credit is due, though — coroner does let on — or guess — that the “medical emergency” was “related to [the man’s] heart.” Hm. I guess that’s as good as it gets on the roadside. What a strange diagnosis.
A witness account is included in the reporting: “[T]he red Kia Forte was traveling southbound on Route 45.
The Kia entered the northbound lanes of traffic south of Sand Lake Road at one point.
The vehicle drove into the ditch on the east side of Route 45 at Deerpath Drive and then crossed over both lanes of traffic, Jones said.
The Kia entered the ditch on the west side of Route 45 south of Falling Waters Boulevard.
Jones said the Kia began swerving into oncoming traffic as other motorists were “dodging” the erratic driving to avoid being struck.”
Downright spooky. Imagine seeing that.

“Washington State Patrol Trooper Kelsey Harding said the off-ramp would be closed for an unknown amount of time while emergency medical responders tended to the patient.
Harding noted the medical emergency was not the result of a traffic incident.”

“A FERRY passenger had to be taken to hospital on Wednesday afternoon following a medical emergency on the Condor Liberation.”
“‘The passenger was attended to by our team on board, their condition was assessed and medical advice recommended further treatment ashore.”
What’s the big deal? Just take the train, right?

Rats.
Things are getting downright spooky out there.
